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]

A new piece of exercise equipment has been added to your gym, and you try it out. To use this machine, you lie horizontal on a m
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

500 N

Explanation:

Since the work done on the spring W = Fx where F = force applied and x = compression length = 0.170 m (since the spring will be compressed its full length when the force is applied)

Since W = 85.0 J and we need to find F,

F = W/x

= 85.0 J/0.170 m

= 500 N

So, the  magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform stationary at the final distance given above is 500 N.

A diffraction pattern forms when light passes through a single slit. The wavelength of the light is 691 nm. Determine the angle
expeople1 [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of the light, \lambda=691\ nm=691\times 10^{-9}\ m

(a) Slit width, a=3.8\times 10^{-4}\ m

The angle that locates the first dark fringe is given by :

sin\theta=\dfrac{\lambda}{a}

sin\theta=\dfrac{691\times 10^{-9}}{3.8\times 10^{-4}}

\theta=0.104^{\circ}

(b) Slit width, a=3.8\times 10^{-6}\ m

The angle that locates the first dark fringe is given by :

sin\theta=\dfrac{\lambda}{a}

sin\theta=\dfrac{691\times 10^{-9}}{3.8\times 10^{-6}}

\theta=10.47^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.
