Answer:

t = 1.4[s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is conserved before and after applying a force to a body. We must remember that the impulse can be calculated by means of the following equation.

P=m*v\\or\\P=F*t

where:

P = impulse or lineal momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 50 [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

F = force = 200[N]

t = time = [s]

Now we must be clear that the final linear momentum must be equal to the original linear momentum plus the applied momentum. In this way we can deduce the following equation.

(m_{1}*v_{1})-F*t=(m_{1}*v_{2})

where:

m₁ = mass of the object = 50 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the object before the impulse = 18.2 [m/s]

v₂ = velocity of the object after the impulse = 12.6 [m/s]

(50*18.2)-200*t=50*12.6\\910-200*t=630\\200*t=910-630\\200*t=280\\t=1.4[s]

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces

Explanation:

                   The main view of the world worked geologically prior to the 1960s was that the mountains were formed by the vertical forces of nature.

                    The early people prior to 1960s believed in many different natural phenomenons and they give their own reasons for their occurrence. But later many researchers and geophysicists studied the formation of the earth and came with possible answers to these questions.

Thus the answer is  

" It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces."

how would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force
Inessa [10]
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.sliding That's the 'kinetic' kind.. According to Newton's second law, F=ma. That is, the bear's acceleration should be proportional to the total force acting on the bear. As the bear's velocity is constant, its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the total Force acting on the bear is zero. Thus, the friction has to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the bear's weight. As W=mg, we get that its weight is  <span>9.8*400=3,920 Newton. Thus, the friction acting on the bear is 3,920 Newton</span>

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Acceleration of the second particle at that moment is given as

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that both cars are connected by same spring

So on this system of two cars there is no external force

So we will have

F = 0 = m_1a_1 + m_2a_2

now we have

m_1 = 0.200 kg

m_2 = 0.250 kg

a_1 = 2.65 m/s^2

now we have

0.200(2.65) + 0.250a_2 = 0

so we have

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2
