As more babies are piled into a shopping cart, and the velocity stays the same, what happens to its momentum?

The equation below is for potassium oxide.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.

Find the momentum of a 25 kg remote

telo118 [61]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

Momentum (P) = Mass (M) × Velocity (V)

Momentum = 25kg × 4.0m/s

Momentum = 100kg m/s

A 126- kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.70 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1800-kg space capsul

jeka94

The change in the speed of the space capsule will be -0.189 m/s.

The average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.

<h3>Given:</h3>

Mass of the astronaut, $m_a$ = 126 kg

Speed he acquires, $v_{a}$ = 2.70 m/s

Mass of the space capsule, $m_{c}$ = 1800kg

The initial momentum of the astronaut-capsule system is zero due to rest.

$P_f = m_av_a + m_cv_c$

$P_I$ = 0

$m_av_a + m_cv_c = 0$

$v_c =\frac{- m_a v_a}{m_c}}\\\\$

$= \frac{126* 2.70}{1800}$

$= - 0.189$ m/s

Therefore,

According, to the impulse-momentum theorem;

FΔt = ΔP

ΔP = m Δv

ΔP = 126×2.70

= 340.2 kgm/sec

t is time interval = 0.600s

F = ΔP/Δt

F = 340.2/0.600

= 567 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The Kinetic Energy of the astronaut;

K.E = $\frac{1}{2} m v^2$

$= \frac{1}{2}$ × 126 × $(2.70) ^2$

= 459.27 J

The Kinetic Energy of the capsule;

K.E = $\frac{1}{2} m v^2$

= $\frac{1}{2}$ ×1800× $(0.189) ^2$

= 32.14 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.

A bicyclist is finishing his repair of a flat tire when a friend rides by with a constant speed of 3.6 m/s . Two seconds later t

dybincka [34]

Answer:

A) t = 7.0 s

B) x = 25 m

C) v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

The equations for the position and velocity of an object traveling in a straight line is given by the following expressions:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

v = velocity at time t

A)When both friends meet, their position is the same:

x bicyclist = x friend

x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t² = x0 + v · t

If we place the center of the frame of reference at the point when the bicyclist starts following his friend, the initial position of the bicyclist will be 0, and the initial position of the friend will be his position after 2 s:

Position of the friend after 2 s:

x = v · t

x = 3.6 m/s · 2 s = 7.2 m

Then:

1/2 · a · t² = x0 + v · t v0 of the bicyclist is 0 because he starts from rest.

1/2 · 2.0 m/s² · t² = 7.2 m + 3.6 m/s · t

1 m/s² · t² - 3.6 m/s · t - 7.2 m = 0

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 5.0 s

It takes the bicyclist (5.0 s + 2.0 s) 7.0 s to catch his friend after he passes him.

B) Using the equation for the position, we can calculate the traveled distance. We can use the equation for the position of the friend, who traveled over 7.0 s.

x = v · t

x = 3.6 m/s · 7.0 s = 25 m

(we would have obtained the same result if we would have used the equation for the position of the bicyclist)

C) Using the equation of velocity:

v = a · t

v = 2.0 m/s² · 5.0 s = 10 m/s
