What is the unit of a force, and what is 1 unit equivalent to?

Physics
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The unit of force is Newton and it is given after Sir Isaac Newton for his tremendous works in this regard.

 Force is the product of mass and acceleration of a body.

    Force  = mass x acceleration  

 The unit of mass = kg

                    acceleration  = m/s²

So;

      1N  = 1kgm/s²

Therefore, the unit of force is newtons and 1N is equal to  1kgm/s²

An athlete with mass m running at speed v grabs a light rope that hangs from a ceiling of height H and swings to a maximum heigh
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

d) The 2 athletes reach the same height, because the athletes run with the same speed.

Explanation:

In the whole process , kinetic energy is converted into potential energy .

1/2 m v² = mgh

v² = 2gh

h = v² / 2g

In this expression we see that height attained does not depend upon mass of the object . At the same time it also makes it clear that it depends upon velocity . As the velocity in both the cases are same , height attained by both of them will be same. Hence option d ) is correct.

A basketball player standing up with the hoop launches the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v_o = 3.75 m/s from 2.5
denis23 [38]

Answer:

a) The maximum height the ball will achieve above the launch point is 0.2 m.

b) The minimum velocity with which the ball must be launched is 4.43 m/s or 0.174 in/ms.

Explanation:

a)

For the height reached, we use 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vo²

Here,

Vo = 3.75 m/s

Vf =  0m/s, since ball stops at the highest point

g = -9.8 m/s² (negative sign for upward motion)

h = maximum height reached by ball

therefore, eqn becomes:

2(-9.8m/s²)(h) = (0 m/s)² - (3.75 m/s²)²

<u>h = 0.2 m</u>

b)

To find out the initial speed to reach the hoop at height of 3.5 m, we again use 3rd eqn. of motion with h= 3.5 m - 2.5m = 1 m (taking launch point as reference), and Vo as unknown:

2(-9.8m/s²)(1 m) = (0 m/s)² - (Vo)²

(Vo)² = 19.6 m²/s²

Vo = √19.6 m²/s²

<u>Vo = 4.43 m/s</u>

Vo = (4.43 m/s)(1 s/1000 ms)(39.37 in/1 m)

<u>Vo = 0.174 in/ms</u>
