Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is $y_c = 1.063 \ m$ from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the first object is $m_1 = 1.99 \ kg$

The position of first object with respect to origin $y_1 = 2.99 \ m$

The mass of the second object is $m_2 = 2.96 \ kg$

The position of second object with respect to origin $y_2 = 2.57 \ m$

The mass of the third object is $m_3 = 2.43 \ kg$

The position of third object with respect to origin $y_3 = 0 \ m$

The mass of the fourth object is $m_3 = 3.96 \ kg$

The position of fourth object with respect to origin $y_3 = -0.502 \ m$

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is zero because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

$y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}$

=> $y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96 + 2.43 + 3.96}$

=> $y_c = 1.063 \ m$

What happens to a mirror when a ray is directed at it

mixas84 [53]

Nothing happens to the mirror.

However, if the ray is within some suitable range of
wavelengths, the ray is reflected from the mirror's surface.

A rocket ship is accelerating at 200 m/s2, its mas is 135,000,000 kg. What is the force generated by this acceleration?

Rina8888 [55]

Acceleration does NOT "generate" force. Acceleration NEEDS force to make it happen. Without force ... provided by something else ... acceleration can't happen.

The force NEEDED to accelerate a mass with a certain acceleration is

Force needed = (mass) times (acceleration)

For the rocket ship in the question,

Force = (135,000,000 kg) times (200 m/s²)

Force = (135,000,000 x 200) kg-m/s²

<em>Force = 27 Giga-Newtons </em>(27,000,000,000 Newtons)

The gas-generator cycle F-1 rocket engine, developed in the US by Rocketdyne in the late 1950s, was used in the Saturn V rocket, the main launch vehicle of NASA's Apollo moon lander program . Five F-1 engines were used in the first stage of each Saturn V.

==> The thrust of each F-1 engine at full throttle is 7,770 kilo-Newtons.

It would take <em>3,475 </em>of these F-1 rocket engines, running full-throttle, to provide the force calculated in the answer to this question. If you didn't have 3,475 F-1 rocket engines, then you couldn't accelerate 135,000,000 kg at 200 m/s².

(And by the way ... the mass of each F-1 engine is 8,400 kg. So 3,475 engines alone account for 22% of the mass you're trying to accelerate. And don't even get me started about the mass of the FUEL you'd need to carry.)

A car starts from rest and travels for 5.8 s with a uniform acceleration of 1.6 m/s² in the negative direction. What is the fina

elena-s [515]

Answer:

Final velocity of the car will be -9.28 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given that the car starts from the rest so initial velocity of the car u = 0 m /sec

Acceleration of the car $a=1.6m/sec^2$ in negative direction so acceleration will be $a=-1.6m/sec^2$
