Answer:

8000Ns

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the truck  = 1000kg

Initial velocity  = 9m/s

Final velocity  = 17m/s

Unknown:

Impulse  = ?

Solution:

The impulse experienced by the truck is the the change in momentum of the body.

  Impulse  = Ft

        Momentum  = m(v  - u)

        Ft  = m( v - u )

 F is the force

 t is the time

 m is the mass

  v is the final velocity

 u is the initial velocity

     Impulse  = 1000(17 - 9) = 8000Ns

Calculate the total resistance in a parallel circuit made up of resistances of 2Ω, 3Ω, and 4Ω. (Hint: When converting to a decim
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Total resistance = 0.92Ω

Explanation:

For parallel connected resistors we have effective resistance

                 \frac{1}{R_{eff}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}+.....

Here parallel circuit made up of resistances of 2Ω, 3Ω, and 4Ω.

That is

             R₁ = 2Ω

             R₂ = 3Ω

             R₃ = 4Ω

Substituting

             \frac{1}{R_{eff}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{eff}}=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{eff}}=\frac{6+4+3}{12}\\\\R_{eff}=\frac{12}{13}=0.92ohm

Total resistance = 0.92Ω

A 50 kg pitcher throws a baseball with a mass of 0.15 kg. If the ball is thrown with a positive velocity of 35 m/s and there is
Andreas93 [3]

The velocity of the pitcher is <u>0.105 m/s</u> in a direction opposite to the velocity of the ball.

When no external force acts on a system, the total momentum of the system is conserved. The total initial momentum of the system is equal to the total final momentum of the system.

The pitcher and the ball are initially at rest, therefore, the total initial momentum of the system is zero.

Since no external forces act on the system comprising of pitcher and the ball, the total final momentum of the system is also equal to zero.

If the mass of the pitcher is mp and its speed is vp, the mass of the ball is mb and the ball's speed is vb, then the final momentum of the system of pitcher and the ball is given by,

p=m_pv_p+m_bv_b=0

Therefore,

v_p=-\frac{m_b}{m_p} v_p

Substituet 0.15 kg for mb, 50 kg for mp and 35 m/s for vb.

v_p=-\frac{m_b}{m_p} v_p=-\frac{0.15 kg}{50 kg} (35m/s)=-0.105 m/s

The pitcher has a velocity <u> 0.105 m/s</u> opposite to the direction of the velocity of the ball.

Consider a uniform horizontal wooden board that acts as a pedestrian bridge. The bridge has a mass of 300 kg and a length of 10
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

F = 2123.33N

Explanation:

In order to calculate the torque applied by the left support, you take into account that the system is at equilibrium. Then, the resultant of the implied torques are zero.

\Sigma \tau=0

Next, you calculate the resultant of the torques around the right support, by taking into account that the torques are generated by the center of mass of the wooden, the person and the left support. Furthermore, you take into account that torques in a clockwise direction are negative and in counterclockwise are positive.

Then, you obtain the following formula:

-\tau_l+\tau_p+\tau_{cm}=0          (1)

τl: torque produced by the left support

τp: torque produced by the person

τcm: torque produced by the center of mass of the wooden

The torque is given by:

\tau=Fd           (2)

F: force applied

d: distance to the pivot of the torque, in this case, distance to the right support.

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1) and take into account that the force applied by the person and the center of mass of the wood are the their weight:

-Fd_1+W_pd_2+W_{cm}d_3=0\\\\d_1=6.0m\\\\d_2=2.0m\\\\d_3=3.0m\\\\W_p=(200kg)(9.8m/s^2)=1960N\\\\W_{cm}=(300kg)(9.8m/s^2)=2940N

Where d1, d2 and d3 are distance to the right support.

You solve the equation for F and replace the values of the other parameters:

F=\frac{W_pd_2+W_d_3}{d_1}=\frac{(1960N)(2.0m)+(2940N)(3.0m)}{6.0m}\\\\F=2123.33N

The force applied by the left support is 2123.33 N

A guitarist finds that the pitch of one of her strings is slightly flat—the frequency is a bit too low. Should she increase or d
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The guitarist should increase the tension of the string.

Explanation:

The frequency of a vibrating string is determined by fn=(n/(2L))√T/μ. So if the tension in the string increased, the rate at which it vibrates (the frequency) will also increase.

Therefore it is advisable that she increase the tension of the string.
