Answer:

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of momentum which is

momentum (in kgm/s) = mass (in kg) × velocity (in m/s)

The velocity of the bird is

velocity (in m/s) = distance (in meter) ÷ time (in seconds)

distance in meters = 125km × 1000 = 125,000 m

time in seconds = 4 hrs × 60 × 60 = 14,400 secs

velocity = 125000/14400

velocity = 8.68 m/s

momentum (p) = 0.03 × 8.68

p = 0.26 kgm/s

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s

If a force does a positive amount of work on an object, does the object's speed
Alexxandr [17]

The speed of the object increases

Explanation:

We can answer this question by applying the work-energy theorem, which states that the work done on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. Mathematically:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where

W is the work done on the object

K_f, K_i are the final and initial kinetic energy of the object, respectively

m is the mass of the object

v is its final speed

u is its initial speed

In this case, the force does a positive amount of work on the object, so

W>0

This also implies that

K_f > K_i

And so

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 > \frac{1}{2}mu^2

And therefore

v>u

which means that the speed of the object increases.

Using 0.500 g of nichrome, you are asked to fabricate a wire with uniform cross-section. The resistance of the wire is 0.673 Ω.
mojhsa [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Nichrome, m = 0.5 g

The resistance of the wire, R = 0.673 ohms

Resistivity of the nichrome wire, \rho=10^{-6}\ \Omega -m

Density, d=8.31\times 10^3\ kg/m^3

(A) The length of the wire is given by using the definition of resistance as :

Volume,

V=A\times l\\\\A=\dfrac{V}{l}\\\\Since, V=\dfrac{m}{d}\\\\V=\dfrac{m}{d}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.5\times 10^{-3}}{8.31\times 10^3}\\\\V=6.01\times 10^{-8}\ m^3

Area,

A=\dfrac{V}{l}\\\\A=\dfrac{6.01\times 10^{-8}}{l}....(1)

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}\\\\l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\\l=\dfrac{0.673\times 6.01\times 10^{-8}}{l\times 10^{-6}}\\\\l=0.201\ m

(b)  Equation (1) becomes :

A=\dfrac{6.01\times 10^{-8}}{l}\\\\A=\dfrac{6.01\times 10^{-8}}{0.201}\\\\\pi r^2=3\times 10^{-7}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 10^{-7}}{\pi}} \\\\r=3.09\times 10^{-4}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

An object of mass 300 g, moving with an initial velocity of 5.00i-3.20j m/s, collides with an sticks to an object of mass 400 g,
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.

Explanation:

Mass of object 1 , m₁ = 300 g = 0.3 kg

Mass of object 2 , m₂ = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial velocity of object 1 , v₁ = 5.00i-3.20j m/s

Initial velocity of object 2 , v₂ = 3.00j m/s

Mass of composite = 0.7 kg

We need to find final velocity of composite.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = 0.3 x (5.00i-3.20j) + 0.4 x 3.00j = 1.5 i + 0.24 j kgm/s

Final momentum = 0.7 x v = 0.7v kgm/s

Comparing

1.5 i + 0.24 j = 0.7v

v = 2.14 i + 0.34 j

Magnitude of velocity      

       v=\sqrt{2.14^2+0.34^2}=2.17m/s

Direction,  

       \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{0.34}{2.14}\right )=9.03^0

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.
