A 0.1 kg arrow with an initial velocity of 30 m/s hits a 4.0 kg melon initially at rest on a friction-less surface. The arrow em

erges out the other side of the melon with a speed of 20 m/s. What is the speed of the melon? Why would we normally not expect to see the melon move with the is speed after being hit by the arrow?​

Answer:

Speed of the melon = 0.25 m/s

we would normally don't see the melon moving due to friction with the resting surface.

Explanation:

We use conservation of momentum:

Pi = Pf

with Pi = 0.1 kg * 30 m/s = 3 kg m/s

and Pf = 0.1 kg * 20 m/s + 4.0 kg * V = 2 kg m/s + 4 * V

Then using the equality above, we solve for V (velocity of the melon)

3 kg m/s = 2 kg m/s + 4 V

1 kg m/s = 4 kg * V

Then V = 1 / 4  M/s = 0.25 m/s

So we would normally don't see the melon moving due to friction with the resting surface.

A 10.0-kg mass is placed on a 25.0o incline and friction keeps it from sliding. The coefficient of static friction in this case
vovangra [49]

The frictional force while the mass is sliding will be 46.2 N.

<h3>What is friction force?</h3>

Opposition forces on the surface cause heat loss during the motion of an object known as the friction force.

Given data:

m(mass)= 10.0-kg

Θ (Inclination angle)=25.0o

Coefficient of sliding friction,\rm \mu_k=0.520

Coefficient of static friction,\rm  \mu_s=0.520

The friction force, F=?

Resolve the force in the inclined plane;

\rm F=\mu_s mg cos25^0 \\\\ F=0.520 \times 10 \times 9.81 \times  cos 25 ^0 \\\\ F= 46.2 \ N

Hence, the frictional force while the mass is sliding will be 46.2 N.

How do you convert mass to weight and visa versa
Darina [25.2K]
To change from mass to weight is Fw = 30 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 294 N. To change from weight to mass divide by gravity (9.8 m/s^2).

A car travels at a speed of 40 m/s for 29.0 s;<br>what is the distance traveled by the car?
lianna [129]

Answer: 1160 m

Explanation:

Speed = distance / time. Plug in 40 m/s for speed and 29 s for time in order to get the distance, 1160 m.
