A marble and a basketball are rolling toward you at the same velocity. If the same amount of force is used to stop both objects,

what is true about the amount of time needed to stop those objects?

Answer:

The amount of time needed to stop the marble is much less than the amount of time needed to stop the basketball.

Explanation:

To explain this question we can use the equation:

Change in momentum = Force x Time

Where momentum = mass x Velocity

In the case of the basketball, it has a much larger mass than the marble, meaning it has much more momentum than the marble. This means that with the same amount of force, it will need much more time to stop.

Likewise, the marble has less mass than the basketball meaning it will have less momentum. This means that with the same amount of force, it will require less time to stop.

Logically this also makes sense if we think about it in a real life scenario. If we try to stop a marble with our finger, we can stop it much faster then if we try to stop a basketball with our finger because of the difference in mass between the two objects, therefore the marble will require much less time to be stopped than the basketball.

Hope this helped!

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1470 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is used up. The S.I unit of power is Watt (W).

The expression for power is given as,

P = Energy/time

P = mgh/t ...................... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, h = height, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 75 kg, g =9.8 m/s², h = 1 m, t = 1 s.

Substitute into equation 1

P = (75×1×9.8)/1

P = 735 W.

From the above,

1 hp = 735 W

2 hp = (2×735) W

2 hp = 1470 W.

Hence 2 hp = 1470 W
