A 1.23 x 10^3 kilogram car is traveling east at 25 meters per second. The brakes are applied and the car is brought to rest in 5

.00 seconds. Calculate the magnitude of the total impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest. State the direction of impulse applied to the car.

Answer:

\text{Magnitude: }30,000\:\text{Ns},\\\text{Direction: opposite direction of car's movement}}

Explanation:

*Edit: The original question states a mass of 1.23\cdot 10^3\:\text{kg}. Since the, the poster has corrected it to 1.20\cdot 10^3\:\text{kg} and therefore the answers have been change to account for the typo.

The impulse-momentum theorem states that the impulse on a object is equal to the change in momentum of the object.

Therefore, we have the following equation:

F\Delta t=\Delta p, where F\Delta t is impulse (another way to find impulse) and \Delta p is change in momentum.

Because the car is being slowed to a rest, its final velocity will be zero, and therefore its final momentum will also be zero. Since momentum is given as p=mv, the car's change in momentum is 1.20\cdot 10^3\cdot 25-0=1230\cdot 25=30,000\:\text{kgm/s}.

As we wrote earlier, this is also equal to the magnitude of impulse on the object. The time it takes to stop the car is actually irrelevant to finding the total impulse. However, if we were to calculated the average applied force on the car, we would need how long it takes to bring it to rest (refer to F\Delta t).

The direction of the impulse must be exactly opposite to the car's direction, since we are slowing it to a stop.

Therefore, the impulse on the car is \boxed{30,750\:\text{Ns, opposite direction of car's movement}}.

Type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words. anne has a sample of a substance. its volume is 20 cm3, and i
CaHeK987 [17]

The density of sample is 5 g/cm3

Given:

volume of sample = 20 cm3

mass of sample = 100 grams

To Find:

density of sample

Solution: Density is the measure of how much “stuff” is in a given amount of space. For example, a block of the heavier element lead (Pb) will be denser than the softer, lighter element gold (Au). A block of Styrofoam is less dense than a brick. It is defined as mass per unit volume

density = mass/volume

d = 100/20

d = 5 g/cm3

So, density of sample is 5 g/cm3

Explain why materials such as plastic foam, feathers, and fur are poor conductors of heat.
Firlakuza [10]
The atoms of some materials have no free electrons in their outer orbits. These electrons are busy doing other jobs, like being shared in the orbits of two adjacent atoms. They are so closely held that it is very difficult to pull them away. Most compounds of carbon and hydrogen are like this. 

<span>Plastics, whose molecules are made from long combinations of carbon and hydrogen atoms, have few or no free electrons. This means that plastics are poor conductors of electricity (and they are also poor conductors of heat). hope that helped.</span>

What is 0.0025 m^2 in cm^2? 1m = 100cm.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

25 cm²

Explanation:

Meters and centimeters are both the units for measuring length. The SI unit of measuring length is meters.

Area is the quantity which measures the cross-section occupied by the object.

Thus,

Given that = Area = 0.0025 m²

To convert into cm²

1 m = 100 cm

So, 1 m² = 10000 cm²

So,

<u>Area = 0.0025 × 10000 cm² = 25 cm²</u>
