Explanation :
We know that the slope of velocity -time graph gives the acceleration. Acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity i.e.
Suppose a driver suddenly applies brakes. In this case the initial velocity of his or her vehicle is more and the final velocity is less.
So, the acceleration is negative in this case i.e. the object is decelerating.
A negative slope on the velocity versus time graph indicates that an object is not accelerating. This statement is false as the object is decelerating.
Momentum = 0.5 * 4 = 2
to conclude the man’s velocity after he throws the piece of equipment, divide
this number by the man’s mass.
v = 2/90
This is about 0.0222 m/s. To know if he can move 6 meters at velocity in
4minutes, use the following equation.
d = v * t, t = 4 * 60 = 240 s
d = 2/90 * 240 = 5⅓ meters.
This is ⅔ of a meter from the spaceship. To know the velocity that he must have
to move 6 meter, use the same equation.
6 = v * 240
v = 6/240
This is about 0.00416 m/s.
His final momentum = 90 * 6/240 = 2.25
To know the velocity of the package, divide this number by the mass of the
package.
v = 2.25/0.5 = 4.5 m/s
A. An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force : The momentum of an object is constant unless an outside force acts on the object.
B. Force is defined as mass times acceleration : the rate of change of the momentum of a particle is proportional to the force F acting on it, hence the force is equal to <span>mass times acceleration.
C. </span>For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction : <span>to every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. </span>
KE formula is .5mv^2
So KE=.5mv2
KE=.5(3)(2)^2
KE=.5(3)(4)
KE=.5(12)
KE=6 joules
