1. A truck with a mass of 8, 000 kg is traveling at 26.8 m/s when it hits the brakes. A.)What is the momentum of the truck befor

e it hits the brakes?
B.)The truck comes to a stop, losing all of that momentum. It takes 12.4 s for the truck to come to a
complete stop. How much force does it take to stop the truck?

Answer:

1. A.) The moment of the truck before it hits the brakes is 214,400 kg·m/s

B.) The force it takes to stop the truck is approximately 17,290.4 N

Explanation:

1. A.) The given parameters are;

The mass of the truck, m = 8,000 kg

The velocity of the truck when it hits the brakes, u = 26.8 m/s

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

The moment of the truck = The mass of the truck × The velocity of the truck

Therefore;

The moment of the truck before it hits the brakes = 8,000 kg × 26.8 m/s = 214,400 kg·m/s

B.) The amount of momentum lost when the truck comes to a stop = The initial momentum of the truck

The time it takes the truck to come to a complete stop, t = 12.4 s

The deceleration, "a" of the truck is given by the following kinematic equation of motion

v = u - a·t

Where;

v = The final velocity of the truck = 0 m/s

u = The initial velocity = 26.8 m/s

a = the deceleration of the truck

t = The time of deceleration of the truck = 12.4 s

Substituting the known values gives;

0 = 26.8 - a × 12.4

Therefore;

26.8 = a × 12.4

a = 26.8/12.4 ≈ 2.1613

The deceleration (negative acceleration) of the truck, a ≈ 2.1613 m/s²

Force = Mass × Acceleration

The force required to stop the truck = The mass pf the truck × The deceleration (negative acceleration) given to the truck

∴ The force it takes to stop the truck = 8,000 kg × 2.1613 m/s² ≈ 17,290.4 N.

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

d=vt

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

d=(2.1)(10)=21 m

How can you increase the intensity of sound waves
VladimirAG [237]

Answer

The intensity of a sound wave depends on the pressure of the wave,density of the medium and speed of sound in the medium. Higher density and higher sound speed both give a lower intensity. and may be it is because that sound wave is more characterize by wavelength than frequency..explanation

Explanation:

As decibel levels get higher, sound waves have greater intensity and sounds are louder. For every 10-decibel increase in the intensity of sound, loudness is 10 times greater. Intensity of sound results from two factors: the amplitude of the sound waves and how far they have traveled from the source of the sound.

A 61 kg skater is traveling at 2.5 m/s while carrying a 4.0 kg bowling ball. After he throws the bowling ball forward at twice t
gregori [183]

The final velocity of the skater is 2.34 m/s forward

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the system before and after the ball is thrown must be conserved, in absence of external forces.

Before the ball is thrown, the total momentum is:

p_i = (M+m)u

where

M = 61 kg is the mass of the skater

m = 4.0 kg is the mass of the ball

u = 2.5 m/s (forward) is the combined velocity of the skater and the ball

After, the ball is thrown at twice the velocity, so the final total momentum is

p_f = MV+mv

where

V is the final velocity of the skater

v = 2(2.5) = 5.0 is the final velocity of the ball

Since the total momentum must be conserved, we can write

p_i = p_f\\(M+m)u = MV+mv\\V=\frac{(M+m)u-mv}{M}=\frac{(61+4.0)(2.5)-(4.0)(5.0)}{61}=2.34 m/s

So, the skater is moving at 2.34 m/s (forward) after the shot.

Science If you want to find the energy quantum of light, you multiply the frequency of the radiation (v) by "h". What is "h"?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

"h" signifies Planck's constant

Explanation:

In the equation energy E = h X v

The "h" there signifies Planck's constant

Planck's constant is a value, that shows the rate at which the energy of a photon increases/decreases, as the frequency of its electromagnetic wave changes.

It was named after Max Planck who discovered this unique relationship between the energy of a light wave and its frequency.

Planck's constant, "h" is usually expressed in Joules second

Planck's constant = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34}  J.s
