The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

p=m*v

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}

\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=m

The units of meters per second (m/s) cancel.

\frac{200 \ kg}{5.0 } =m

40 \ kg = m

The falling rock has a mass of <u>40 kilograms.</u>

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.

madreJ [45]
In order to answer this exercise you need to use the formulas

 S = Vo*t + (1/2)*a*t^2

Vf = Vo + at

The data will be given as

Vf = final velocity = ?

Vo = initial velocity = 1.4 m/s

a = acceleration = 0.20 m/s^2

s = displacement = 100m

And now you do the following:

100 = 1.4t + (1/2)*0.2*t^2

t = 25.388s

and

Vf = 1.4 + 0.2(25.388)

Vf = 6.5 m/s

So the answer you are looking for is 6.5 m/s
