Conservation of momentum

Answer: 6.21 m/s opposite to Janet

Explanation:

Given

mass of Janet m_j=59\ kg

mass of Sarah m_s=32\ kg

The initial velocity of Janet u_1=7\ m/s

The final velocity of Janet after the collision is v_1=2\ m/s

the final velocity of Sarah after the collision is v_2=3\ m/s

Conserving linear momentum

\Rightarrow m_ju_1+m_su_2=m_jv_1+m_sv_2\\\Rightarrow 59\times 7+32\times u_2=59\times 2+32\times 3\\\Rightarrow 32u_2=118+96-413\\\Rightarrow u_2=\frac{-199}{32}=-6.21\ m/s

Negative indicates the direction of velocity is opposite than of Janet

vredina [299]

Explanation:

Total mass=100+10=110

Total weight=mass×gravitational field strength

=110×10

=1100N

Work done=force×distance

=1100×10

=11000J

How to find the density of air?
nikitadnepr [17]
You have to divide the pressure exerted by the air into two partial pressures: of the dry air and of the water vapor. Combining these two values gives you the parameter.

You are moving a desk that has a mass of 36 kg; its acceleration is 0.5 m / s 2. What is the force being applied
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

18 N

Explanation:

Force can be found using the following formula.

f= m*a

where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.

m= 36 kg

a= 0.5 m/s^2

Substitute these values into the formula.

f= 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2

Multiply 36 and 0.5

f=18 kg m/s^2

1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.

f= 18 Newtons

The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N

If the force of gravity changes, what happens to the weight of an object?
Nataly [62]
The "weight" is the name we give to the force of gravity on the object. They're the same thing.

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x= 5.0 cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a)   x = 4.33 m ,   b)  w = 2 rad / s ,  f = 0.318 Hz ,  c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,  

d) T =  3.15 s,  e)  A = 5.0 cm

Explanation:

In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion

          x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)

they ask us for t = 0

a) the position of the particle

      x = 5 cos (π / 6)

      x = 4.33 m

remember angles are in radians

 

b) The general form of the equation is

          x = A cos (w t + Ф)

when comparing the two equations

         w = 2 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 2 / 2pi

           f = 0.318 Hz

c) the acceleration is defined by

      a == d²x / dt²

      a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)

for t = 0 ,  we substitute

      a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)

      a = - 17.31 cm / s²

d) El period is

          T = 1/f

         T= 1/0.318

         T =  3.15 s

e) the amplitude

        A = 5.0 cm
