Answer:
The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.
So the equipment needed would be:
Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.
Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.
Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
Answer:
0.3956
Explanation:
Newton's 2nd law of motion says that Force = Mass*Acceleration (f=ma) so to find the force used on the football you multiply it's mass by its acceleration.
0.43*0.92 = 0.3956.
0.4 if you round
The normal stress follows the formula written below:
σ = F/A
There are two types of stress, axial and tangential. Since we are only given with the dimension of the radius (and not the length), the possible stress is axial. So, the area is,
A = πr² = π(0.75 in)² = 1.767 in²
So,
σ = F/A = 500 lb/1.767 in² = <em>282.94 psi</em>
