Answer:

Momentum is given by

p

=

m

v

. Impulse is the change of momentum,

I

=

Δ

p

and is also equal to force times time:

I

=

F

t

. Rearranging,

F

=

I

t

=

Δ

p

Explanation:

Momentum before the collision is

Assuming the truck comes to a complete halt, the momentum after the collision is

The change in momentum,

This is called the impulse:

p

. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:

I

=

F

t

We can rearrange this expression to make

F

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.

(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)

A solid cylinder of mass 12.0 kgkg and radius 0.250 mm is free to rotate without friction around its central axis. If you do 75.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The final angular velocity is 20rad/s

Explanation:

We are given;

mass, m = 12 kg

radius, r = 0.25 m

Work done;W = 75 J

Moment of inertia of cylinder, I = (1/2) mr²

Thus,

I = (1/2) x 12 x 0.25² = 0.375 kg.m²

Now, from work energy theorem,

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

So, W = KE_f - KE_i

Now, Initial Kinetic Energy (KE_i) = 0

Final Kinetic Energy; KE_f = (1/2)Iω²

So, KE_f = (1/2) x 0.375 x ω²

KE_f = 0.1875 ω²

Now, W = 75 J

Thus,

From, W = KE_f - KE_i, we have;

75 = 0.1875 ω² - 0

75 = 0.1875 ω²

ω² = 75/0.1875

ω² = 400

ω = √400

ω = 20 rad/s

dimaraw [331]

Answer: M = 1797.75 kg

Explanation:

given parameters are;

speed V = 26.7 M/S.

momentum P = 4.8×10^4 KGM/S.

What was the mass of the V. A-3?

Momentum P is the product of mass and velocity. That is, P = MV

Substitute V and P into the formula

4.8×10^4 = 26.7 × M

Make M the subject of formula

M = 4.8×10^4/ 26.7

M = 1797.75 kg

Therefore, the mass of the V. A-3 was 1797.75 kg
