Answer:

Force = -1161.6 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 44m/s

Distance ,s = 12.5cm to m = 12.5/100 = 0.125m

Mass = 0.15kg

To find the acceleration;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V ² = U² + 2as

0² = 44² + 2*a*0.125

0 = 1936 + 0.25a

0.25a = -1936

a = -1936/0.25

Acceleration, a = -7744m/s2

Force = mass * acceleration

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Force = 0.15 * (-7744)

Force = -1161.6 Newton

The value of its force is negative because the glove decreases the velocity of the ball.

A 98-kg fullback, running at 5.0 m/s, attempts to dive directly across the goal line for a touchdown. Just as he reaches the lin
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

(a) Explained below

(b) v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Yes

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum</u>

The total linear momentum of a system of particles or objects is conserved unless an external force is acting on the system. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and velocity v is P=mv. If there is a system of bodies, then the total linear momentum is the sum of the individual momentums

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

When objects collide and join together, the only final mass is the sum of all masses, all traveling at the same speed.

Our m_1=98\ kg fullback runs at v_1=5\ m/s. Two two 68-kg linebackers attempt to stop him, one at -2.0 m/s and the other at -4.0 m/s. The negative value is because the run against the positive direction, taken in the direction of the fullback.

(a) Before the event, there is a total linear momentum, computed as the sum of the momentums of each player as shown

p_1=m_1v_1=(98)(5)=490 Kg\ m/s

p_2=m_2v_2=(68)(-4)=-272 kg\ m/s

p_3=m_3v_3=(68)(-2)=-136 kg\ m/s

p_t=p_1+p_2+p_3=390-272-136=82\ kg\ m/s

After the collision, all the players keep joined in one single mass of.

m_t=98+68+68=234\ kg

They will move at a speed which will be computed below

(b) The final momentum of the system is

p_f=m_tv_f=82\ kg\ m/s

Since the linear momentum is conserved, the final speed v_f is common to all of the players. Let's solve to find it

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{p_f}{m_t}

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{82}{234}

v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Since the final speed of the players is positive, it means the touchdown was actually scored, the fullback moved forward across the goal line, the positive reference.

a solid metal sphere of radius 3.00m carries a total charge of -5.50. what is the magnitude of the electric field at a distance
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

(a) Electric field at 0.250 m is zero.

(b)  Electric field at 2.90 m is zero.

(c) Electric field at 3.10 m is - 5.15 x 10³ V/m.

(d) Electric field at 8.00 m is - 0.77 x 10³ V/m.

Explanation:

Let Q and R are the charge and radius of the solid metal sphere. The solid metal sphere behave as conductor, so total charge Q is on the surface of the sphere.

Electric field inside and outside the metal sphere is :

E = 0 for r ≤ R ( inside )

  = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} } for r > R ( outside )

Here K is electric constant and r is the distance from the center of the metal sphere.

(a) Electric field at 0.250 m is zero as r < R i.e. 0.250 m < 3 m from the above equation.

(b)  Electric field at 2.90 m is zero as r < R i.e. 2.90 m < 3 m from the above equation.

(c) Electric field at 3.10 m is given by the relation as r > R :

E = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} }

Substitute 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C² for K, -5.50 μC for Q and 3.10 m for r in the above equation.

E = - \frac{9\times10^{9}\times5.50\times10^{-6}  }{3.10^{2} }

E = - 5.15 x 10³ V/m

(d) Electric field at 8.00 m is given by the relation as r > R :

E = \frac{KQ}{r^{2} }

Substitute 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C² for K, -5.50 μC for Q and 8.00 m for r in the above equation.

E = - \frac{9\times10^{9}\times5.50\times10^{-6}  }{8^{2} }

E = - 0.77 x 10³ V/m

Four football players are running down the field at the same speed. Player 1 weighs 180 lbs and is running toward the south goal
Serggg [28]
Player 2 because moment is mass times acceleration and since they are all going the same speed. Speed doesn't matter so the only thing that is left is mass/ weight and he has the most

Explanation:

change your speed or change your direction—or change both.
