Answer:

v = 60 m/s

final velocity after 20 seconds depends on how long it continues to accelerate after 20 seconds. Also we do not know the direction to complete the velocity requirements of a scalar value and direction component.

Explanation:

If we assume that the acceleration is constant

d = ½at² = ½(Δv/t)t² = ½Δvt = ½(v - 0)t = ½vt

v = 2d/t

v = 2(600)/20 = 60m/s

Sarah, who has a mass of 55 kg, is riding in a car at 20 m/s. She sees a cat crossing the street and slams on the brakes! Her se
avanturin [10]

Answer:

-2200 N

Explanation:

The change in momentum of Sarah is equal to the impulse, which is the product between the force exerted by the seatbelt on Sarah and the time during which the force is applied:

\Delta p=I\\m \Delta v = F \Delta t

where

m is the mass

\Delta v is the change in velocity

F is the average force

\Delta t is the duration of the collision

In this problem:, we have:

m = 55 kg is Sarah's mass

\Delta v = 0-20 = -20 m/s  is the change in velocity

\Delta t = 0.5 s  is the duration of the collision

Solving for F, we find the force exerted by the seatbelt on Sarah:

F=\frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{(55)(-20)}{0.5}=-2200 N

Where the negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to that of Sarah's initial velocity.

A professional golfer hits a golf ball of mass 46 g with her 5-iron, and the ball first strikes the ground 155 m away. The ball
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 46 g = 0.046 kg

Terminal speed of the ball, v = 44 m/s

The drag force, F_r=Cv^2

Where, C is the drag coefficient. At terminal speed, the weight of the ball is balanced by the drag force.

Cv^2=mg

C=\dfrac{mg}{v^2}

C=\dfrac{0.046\times 9.8}{(44)^2}

C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why are there so few working wave power stations?
Bond [772]
Well mostly because it's for oceans and lakes that have waves. so if you don't live near any of these, you wouldn't be getting power. <span />

Can you ever absolutely prove that a hypothesis is correct? Explain.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Yes you can, with using scientific experiment.

Ask a question -- Do background Research -- Construct a Hypothesis --Test with an Experiment -- Procedure working? -- Yes or no? -- Analyze Data and Draw Conclusions

With an experiment you can discover if its correct or not.

Hope this helps ! <3
