The 4kg head of a sledge hammer is moving at 6m/s when it strikes a chisel, driving it into a log. The duration of the impact (o

Answer:

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

Explanation:

By Impact Theorem we know that impact done by the sledge hammer on the chisel is equal to the change in the linear momentum of the former. The mathematical model that represents the situation is now described:

\bar F \cdot \Delta t = m \cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1}) (1)

Where:

\bar F - Average impact force, in newtons.

\Delta t - Duration of the impact, in seconds.

m - Mass of the sledge hammer, in kilograms.

v_{1}, v_{2} - Initial and final velocity, in meters per second.

If we know that \Delta t = 0.0020\,s, m = 4\,kg, v_{1} = -6\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{2} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, then we estimate the average impact force is:

\bar F = \frac{m\cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1})}{\Delta t}

\bar F = 12000\,N

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units. If the charge
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

new force is 6 times of the initial force.

Explanation:

Let the charges on two objects is q₁ and q₂. The electric force between charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units

If the charge  of Object 1 is doubled and the charge of object 2 is tripled, it means, q_1'=2q_1 and q_2'=3q_2. New force is given by :

F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{k(2q_1)(3q_2)}{r^2}\\\\F'=6\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F'=6F

So, the new electrostatic force between objects will become 6 times of the initial force.

⚠HI YOU GUYS HELLLP BRAINLIEST AND 100 PIONTS⚠ Use THE MAP
Setler [38]

Answer:

5.A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

6.The Nazca plate is an oceanic plate, while the South American plate is continental. The fast moving Nazca plate is moving east towards the South American plate at a downward angle and converging. This process is called subduction, resulting in frequent earthquakes & production of the Andes Mountains.

7.The Nazca plate forms the southeastern part of the Pacific plate. The Nazca and the Pacific plate share both divergent and transform type of plate boundary. The Pacific and the Nazca plate are separating at an increasing rate of about 122-142mm/year.

8.Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.

A small truck has a mass of 2145 kg. How much work is required to decrease the speed of the vehicle from 25.0 m/s to 12.0 m/s on
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The work required is -515,872.5 J

Explanation:

Work is defined in physics as the force that is applied to a body to move it from one point to another.

The total work W done on an object to move from one position A to another B is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object. That is, work is also defined as the change in the kinetic energy of an object.

Kinetic energy (Ec) depends on the mass and speed of the body. This energy is calculated by the expression:

Ec=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}

where kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), mass in kilograms (kg), and velocity in meters per second (m/s).

The work (W) of this force is equal to the difference between the final value and the initial value of the kinetic energy of the particle:

W=\frac{1}{2} *m*v2^{2}-\frac{1}{2} *m*v1^{2}

W=\frac{1}{2} *m*(v2^{2}-v1^{2})

In this case:

  • W=?
  • m= 2,145 kg
  • v2= 12 \frac{m}{s}
  • v1= 25 \frac{m}{s}

Replacing:

W=\frac{1}{2} *2145 kg*((12\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(25\frac{m}{s} )^{2})

W= -515,872.5 J

<u><em>The work required is -515,872.5 J</em></u>

Sound with a frequency of 1250 Hz leaves a room through a doorway with a width of 1.05 m.At what minimum angle relative to the c
kiruha [24]

Answer:

15.19°, 31.61°, 51.84°

Explanation:

We need to fin the angle for m=1,2,3

We know that the expression for wavelenght is,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Substituting,

\lambda = \frac{344}{1250}

\lambda = 0.2752m

Once we have the wavelenght we can find the angle by the equation of the single slit difraction,

sin\theta = \frac{m \lambda}{W}

Where,

W is the width

m is the integer

\lambda the wavelenght

Re-arrange the expression,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{m\lambda}{W}

For m=1,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{1 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 15.19\°

For m=2,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{2 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 31.61\°

For m=3,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{3 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 51.84\°

<em>The angle of diffraction is directly proportional to the size of the wavelength.</em>
