6. A lumberjack is standing on a log floating on a lake. She starts from rest, then runs along the log to the end, when she jump

s from the first log onto a second. After landing safely on the second log, she slows down and ends up standing on the second log. Both logs both have masses of 150 kg each and the mass of the lumberjack is 70 kg. The lumberjack reaches a speed of 7.0 m/s relative to the shore during her jump. What are the speeds of the two logs and of the lumberjack after she has stopped on the second log

Answer:

a) -3.267 m/s

b) 2.227 m/s

Explanation:

As per the conservation of momentum

m1v1 + m2v2=0

m1= mass of log

m2 = mass of lumber jack

v1 = velocity of log

v2 = velocity of lumber jack

a) Velocity of first log

-\frac{70*7}{150} = -3.267 m/s

b) m1v1 + m2v2 = m3v3

Velocity of log

= \frac{70*7}{150+70} \\2.227

A toy doll and a toy robot are standing on a frictionless surface facing each other. The doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robo
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

<h3>1.43m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

According to newtons second law.

F = mass * acceleration

If the doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robot has a mass of 0.5 kg, the resulting mass will be 0.7kg

Force applied = 1N

acceleration = Force/mass

Substitute the values and get acceleration

acceleration = 1/0.7

acceleration = 1.43m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the acceleration of the robot is 1.43m/s²

A non-ideal 12.2 V battery is connected across a resistor R. The internal resistance of the battery is 1.9Ohm. Calculate the pot
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

R=100 Ohm, V=11.97 volts and I=0.12 amperes

R=10 Ohm, V=10.25 volts and I=1.20 amperes

R=2 Ohm, V=6.26 volts

Explanation:

The potential difference (voltage) of a battery with internal resistance is:

V=\xi-Ir (1)

with \xi the electromotive force (the voltage the batteries say to has) , I the current and r the internal resistance. By Ohm's law the current that passes through the resistor is:

I=\frac{V}{R} (2)

using (2) on (1):

V=\xi-\frac{V*r}{R}

solving for V:

V+\frac{V*r}{R}=\xi

V=\frac{\xi}{1+\frac{r}{R}} (3)

R=100 Ohm

V=\frac{12.2}{1+\frac{1.9}{100}}=11.97 V

R=10 Ohm

V=\frac{12.2}{1+\frac{1.9}{10}}=10.25 V

R=2 Ohm

V=\frac{12.2}{1+\frac{1.9}{2}}=6.26 V

Because we have now the values of I on the circuit (is the same through all the components because is a series circuit)

We use back substitution on (1) to find the current:

R=100 Ohm

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{11.97}{100}=0.12 A

R=10 Ohm

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{11.97}{10}=1.20 A

A force of 100 N acts upward. Resolve this force into 2 components; one that acts 30º north of west and one that acts 60º north
GrogVix [38]

To resolve these forces we have to make use of the sines and cosines.

To resolve this force in 30 degree north of west, the answer will be

100*sin(30)

The answer will be 50N

Now to resolve the force acting 60 degree north of east

100* cos(60)

The answer will be 50N.

This also adds to the total force acting that is 50+50=100N. This is the way forces are resolved according to their specified angles.
