Answer:

Mass = 18 kg

Explanation:

Formula for force in centripetal motion is;

F = mv²/r

We have;

Mass; m.

Speed; v = 3 m/s

radius; r = 1.8 m

Force; F = 90 N

Thus;

Making m the subject;

m = Fr/v²

m = 90 × 1.8/3²

m = 18 kg

A 0.150 kg ball on the end of a 1.10 m long cord (negligible mass)is swung in a vertical circle..
Aneli [31]
<span> For any body to move in a circle it requires the centripetal force (mv^2)/r. In this case a ball is moving in a vertical circle swung by a mass less cord. At the top of its arc if we draw its free body diagram and equate the forces in radial direction to the centripetal force we get it as T +mg =(mv^2)/r T is tension in cord m is mass of ball r is length of cord (radius of the vertical circle) To get the minimum value of velocity the LHS should be minimum. This is possible when T = 0. So minimum speed of ball v at top =sqrtr(rg)=sqrt(1.1*9.81) = 3.285 m/s In the second case the speed of ball at top = (2*3.285) =6.57 m/s Let us take the lowest point of the vertical circle as reference for potential energy and apllying the conservation of energy equation between top & bottom we get velocity at bottom as 9.3m/s. Now by drawing the free body diagram of the ball at the bottom and equating the net radial force to the centripetal force T-mg=(mv^2)/r We get tension in cord T=13.27 N</span>

How does nuclear fusion produce energy
prisoha [69]
The fusion reaction that is easiest to accomplish is the reaction between two hydrogen isotopes: deuterium, extracted from water and tritium, produced during the fusion reaction through contact with lithium. When deuterium and tritium nuclei fuse, they form a helium nucleus, a neutron and a lot of energy.

How does the increasing mass effect the force of an object in motion?​
irina [24]

Answer:

<u>According </u><u>to </u><u>second </u><u>law </u><u>of </u><u>motion</u><u>,</u><u>t</u><u>he acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.</u>

<em>So </em><em>simply</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>it </em><em>can </em><em>be </em><em>affected </em><em>due </em><em>to </em><em>increasing </em><em>force </em><em>as </em><em>there </em><em>is </em><em>close </em><em>relationship </em><em>between </em><em>momentum.</em>

Explanation:

<em>The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope </em><em>it </em><em>was </em><em>helpful </em><em>for </em><em>you </em><em>:</em><em>)</em>

A ball with a momentum of 16 kg.M/s strikes a ball at rest. What is the total momentum of both the balls after the collision.
melomori [17]

Answer:

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Let the momentum of the two balls be A and B respectively.

Momentum A = 16 kgm/s

Momentum B = 0 kgm/s (since the ball is at rest).

Total momentum = A + B

Total momentum = 16 + 0

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity
