Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).
When I calculate the weight of the 81.6 kg, the number I use for gravity
is 9.807 m/s². That gives a weight of 800.25 N, so I think that's where the
question got the crazy number of 81.6 kg ... whoever wrote the problem
wants the hay to weigh 800 N, and that's what I'll use for the weight.
The forces on the bale of hay are gravity: 800N downward, and the
guy on the truck with the pitchfork pulling upward on it with 850 N.
The net force on the bale is (850 - 800) = 50 N upward.
Use Newton's second law of motion: (Net force) = (mass) x (acceleration)
Divide each side by 'mass' :
Acceleration = (net force)/(mass)
On the hay wagon,
Acceleration = (50 N upward) / (81.6 kg) = <em>0.613 m/s² upward</em>
Answer:
0.35 m
Explanation:
Constructive interference occurs when the difference in the distance between the two speakers is
0, λ, 2λ,...
Here λ = v/f = 343/490 = 0.7m
The first point of interference is the initial point which would mean the distance is the trivial solution of 0 .
A microphone is placed half-way between the speakers and then moved along the line joining the two speakers until the first point of constructive interference is found.
Let x be the distance from the midpoint to the next interference.
This occurs when 1.5 + x -(1.5 - x) = 0.7
so 2x = 0.7 which means x = 0.7/2 = 0.35m
If the impulse is 25 N-s, then so is the change in momentum.
The mass of the ball is extra, unneeded information.
Just to make sure, we can check out the units:
<u>Momentum</u> = (mass) x (speed) = <u>kg-meter / sec</u>
<u>Impulse</u> = (force) x (time) = (kg-meter / sec²) x (sec) = <u>kg-meter / sec</u>
Should be 250m. check with your teacher and let me know
