Answer:
The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.
So the equipment needed would be:
Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.
Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.
Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
Answer:
27.22 m/s
Explanation:
Let the speed of clay before impact is u.
the speed of clay and target is v after impact.
use conservation of momentum
momentum before impact momentum after impact
mass of clay x u = (mass of clay + mass of target) x v
100 x u = (100 + 500) x v
u = 6 v .....(1)
distance, s = 2.1 m
μ = 0.5
final velocity is zero. use third equation of motion
v'² = v² + 2as
0 = v² - 2 x μ x g x s
v² = 2 x 0.5 x 9.8 x 2.1 = 20.58
v = 4.54 m/s
so by equation (1)
u = 6 x 4.54 = 27.22 m/s
thus, the speed of clay before impact is 27.22 m/s.
Answer:
15193.62 m/s
Explanation:
t = Time taken = 6.5 hours
u = Initial velocity = 0 (Assumed)
m = Mass of rocket = 1380 kg
F = Thrust force = 896 N
v = Final velocity
a = Acceleration of the rocket
Force

Equation of motion

The velocity of the rocket after 6.5 hours of thrust is 15193.62 m/s
Answer:
The forces could be gravity, friction between the car and the ground, the force Katie is applying and the normal reaction.
