Net force of 8.0 N acts on an 18 kg body for one minute. Determine the impulse due to the force.

boyakko [2]

Answer:

p = FΔt = 8.0 N(60 s) = 480 N•s

Explanation:

not asked for, but in that time a frictionless 18 kg mass on a horizontal surface will have change velocity by 480/18 = 26.7 m/s.

An impulse results in a change of momentum.

A new landowner has a triangular piece of flat land she wishes to fence. Starting at the first corner, she measures the first si

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Length of third side = 3.97m

Explanation:

First of all, let we draw the triangle from the given information assuming our first corner is A. second corner is B and third corner is C.

From A-B we have distance = 5.5m = Say it c

From B-C we have distance = 4.3m = Say it a

From A-C we have distance = ? = Say it b which we have to find out.

Using the Law of Cosines: The square of the unknown side equals to the sum of squares of other 2 sides and subtracting 2*(Product of other sides)*(Cos(Angle opposite to the unknown side)

For our case it is:

b² = a² + c² - 2acCos(B) - Say it equation 1

From the attached triangle you may see that, a & c are our known sides and B is the angle opposite to the side b.

There values are:

a = 4.3m; c = 5.5m ; Angle B = 0.8 rad = 0.8 * 57.3 = 45.84 degrees where 1 rad = 57.3 degrees

Now by putting the respectve values in equation 1 we have:

b² = (4.3)² + (5.5)² - 2*4.3*5.5*Cos(45.84)

b² = 18.49 + 30.25 - 32.95

b² = 15.79

b = √15.79

b = 3.97m

Thus the length of third side is 3.97m.

PS: The picture of triangle is being attached for yours understanding.

A child whirls a 3.00 kg ball on a string .50 m from the axis of rotation in a horizontal circle. The ball makes 1 revolution in

melamori03 [73]

Answers:

a) $0.5 m/s^{2}$

b) $1.5 N$

Explanation:

a) The centripetal acceleration $a_{c}$ of an object moving in a uniform circular motion is given by the following equation:

$a_{c}=\omega^{2} r$

Where:

$\omega=1 \frac{rev}{s}$ is the angular velocity of the ball

$r=0.5 m$ is the radius of the circular motion, which is equal to the length of the string

Then:

$a_{c}=(1 \frac{rev}{s})^{2} 0.5 m$

$a_{c}=0.5 m/s^{2}$ This is the centripetal acceleration of the ball

b) On the other hand, in this circular motion there is a force (centripetal force $F$ ) that is directed towards the center and is equal to the tension ( $T$ ) in the string:
