ASAP PLEASE HELP WITH THIS 1.Mike and tim are outside with a wagon time weight 311 Newtons(70lbs) and gets in the the wagon and

mike,who weights 50 Newtons(50lbs),pulls it. As mike pulls it, he accelerates until reaching a constant speed. After stopping, Mike and Tim switch places . Tim now pulls mike in the wagon, accelerating from stop to a constant velocity. Now, Tim may be bigger then mike but mike was riding in the wagon when it had the greatest acceleration during start up? Why? Use Newtons second law of motion to explain.
2. Now Sare comes along, and she is the exact same size as Mike. However, she is even stronger then mike When she pulls mike in the wagon, she pulls with a greater force than when mike pulls her. Now who is in the wagon when it has the greatest acceleration? Please explain, Usung Newton's second law and please answer correctly

Answer:

1. Mike was riding in the wagon when it had the most acceleration because his light weight compared to Tim's weight required the least effort to move

2. Mike

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, force is proportional to te rate of change of momentum produced

Mathematically, we can write the above law as follows;

F = m × a

Where;

F = The force acting on the object

m = The mass of object in motion

a = The acceleration of the object

1. The given parameters in the question are;

The weight of Tim = 311 Newtons (70 lbs.)

The weight of Mike = 50 Newtons (50 lbs.)

The minimum force required to pull the wagon to constant speed = The weight of the wagon

With the assumption that the wagon has very little weight, we have

Therefore, when Tim gets in the wagon, the force, 'F' applied by Mike to pull the wagon to constant speed = Mass of Tim, m × Acceleration of the cart, a

Given that mass is proportional to weight, we can write;

Force from mike, Tim on the wagon F₁ = 311 N × a₁

Similarly when they switched places, we have;

Force from Tim, Mike on the wagon  = F₂ = 50 N × a₂

Therefore, for the same force, F₁ = F₂ = F, we have;

a₁ = F₁/(311 N) = F/(311 N)

a₂ = F₂/(50 N) = F/(50 N)

By fraction of numbers, F/(50 N) > F/(311 N) > N), therefore, a₂ > a₁

The acceleration of the wagon when Mike was on the wagon will be more than the acceleration of the wagon when Tim gets in the wagon because for the same applied force, the weight of Mike offer less resistance to move

2. Given that Sare and Mike have the same weight of 50 N each let F₃ represent the force with which she pulls Mike in the wagon, and F₁ represent the force with which Mike pulls her while she is on the wagon, we  are also given that F₃ > F₁

By Newton's second law of motion, we have;

a₃ = F₃/(50 N) and a₁ = F₁/(50 N)

From F₃ > F₁, we have;

F₃/(50 N) > F₁/(50 N)

Therefore;

a₃ > a₁

The acceleration of the wagon when Mike is being pulled by Sare, a₃, is greater than the acceleration of the wagon when Sare is pulled by Mike

Therefore, Mike is on the wagon when it has the greatest acceleration.

A uniform-density 7 kg disk of radius 0.21 m is mounted on a nearly frictionless axle. Initially it is not spinning. A string is
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

\omega = 22.67 rad/s

Explanation:

Here we can use energy conservation

As per energy conservation conditions we know that work done by external source is converted into kinetic energy of the disc

Now we have

W = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

now we know that work done is product of force and displacement

so here we have

W = F.d

W = (44 N)(0.9 m) = 39.6 J

now for moment of inertia of the disc we will have

I = \frac{1}{2}mR^2

I = \frac{1}{2}(7 kg)(0.21^2)

I = 0.154 kg m^2

now from above equation we will have

39.6 = \frac{1}{2}(0.154)\omega^2

\omega = 22.67 rad/s

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter  pipe

1. If an object of mass m collides and velocity v collides inelastically with an object of mass 3m that is initially at rest, th
Archy [21]

Answer:

1a). 4 times. 1b) 4. 1c) 1/4.

2a) 5 times. 1b) 5 1c) 1/5

3a) 7/3 times 3b) 7/3 3c) 3/7

4a) 8/5 times 4b) 8/5 4c) 5/8

Explanation:

1) Assuming no external forces acting during the collision, total momentum must be conserved, so the following general expression applies:

m₁*v₁₀ + m₂*v₂₀ = m₁*v₁f  + m₂*v₂f (1)

If we assume that the collision is perfectly inelastic, this means that both masses stick together after the collision, so v₁f = v₂f.

If m₂ is initially at rest, ⇒ v₂₀ = 0.

Replacing in (1) we get the expression of vf as a function of v₁₀, as follows:

vf = v₁₀*(m₁/(m₁+m₂)

So, for the four cases we have the following:

1) initial mass = m

  final mass = m+3m = 4 m

⇒final mass / initial mass = 4

vf = v₀* (m/4m) = v₀/4  ⇒v₀/vf = 4

So, the velocity of the system will decrease by a factor of 4. The new velocity will be vf= v₀/4.

2) Applying the same considerations, we get:

2a)  final mass / initial mass = 5

2b) vf = v₀* (m/5m) = v₀/5  ⇒v₀/vf = 5

2c) vf = v₀/5

3) Applying the same considerations, we get:

3a)  final mass / initial mass = 7/3

3b) vf = v₀* (3m/7m) =3/7* v₀  ⇒v₀/vf = 7/3

3c) vf = 3/7*v₀

4) Applying the same considerations, we get:

4a)  final mass / initial mass = 8/5

4b) vf = v₀* (5m/8m) = 5/8*v₀ ⇒v₀/vf = 8/5

4c) vf = 5/8*v₀
