Answer:

p=10\:\text{kgm/s}},\\v_f=1\:\text{m/s}

Explanation:

From Newton's 2nd Law, we have \Sigma F=ma. We can use this to find the acceleration of object after 20 N (force) is applied to the 10 kg object.

Substituting given values, we have:

\Sigma F=ma, \\20=10a,\\a=\frac{20}{10}=2\:\mathrm{m/s^2}

Now that we have acceleration, we can find the final velocity of object (after 0.5 seconds) using the following kinematics equation:

v_f=v_i+at, where v_f is final velocity, v_i is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time.

Solving for final velocity:

v_f=0+2\cdot 0.5,\\v_f=\boxed{1\:\text{m/s}}

The momentum of an object is given as p=mv. Since we've found the final velocity and mass stays constant, we have:

p=10\cdot 1=\boxed{10\:\text{kgm/s}}

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

F4.0

Explanation:

To obtain a shutter speed of 1/1000 s to avoid any blur motion the f-number should be changed to F4.0 because the light intensity goes up by a factor of 2 when the f-number is decreased by the square root of 2.

Darryl throws a basketball at the gym floor. The ball bounces once on the floor and comes to rest in his coach’s hands. At which
mina [271]

Answer:

when the ball is at rest in his coach's hands.

Explanation:

The forces on the basketball are balanced when the basketball is not experiencing any acceleration. This happens when the ball is in his coach's hand: in fact, at that moment the ball is at rest, so it means that its acceleration is zero. According to Newton's second law, this also mean that the net force on the basketball is zero, so the forces on the ball are balanced:

F=ma

where F is the net force, m is the mass of the ball and a is the acceleration.

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?
Scrat [10]
Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate.  The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy.  It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a <u><em>rate</em></u> of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your <em>power</em> is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger <em>rate</em> of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.
