A 700-kg car, driving at 29 m/s, hits a brick wall and rebounds with a speed of 4.5 m/s. what is the car's change in momentum du

Viefleur [7K]

The change in the momentum of the car due to collision between car and wall is $\fbox{\begin\ -23450\text{ kg.m}/\text{s}\end{minispace}}$ or $\fbox{\begin\\-2.3450 \times {10^4}\,\text{kg.m}/\text{s}\end{minispace}}$ .

Further Explanation:

Let us consider the car is moving towards the right direction and it collides with the wall. After the collision, the car will bounce back or car will rebound opposite to the direction of its motion i.e., towards left. Therefore, the final velocity of the car is opposite to the direction of the initial velocity of the car.

Given:

The mass of the car is $700\,{\text{kg}}$ .

The velocity of the car before collision is $29\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}$ .

The velocity of the car after collision is $4.5\text{ m}/\text{s}$ .

Concept:

The momentum of an object is defined as the product of mass of object and the velocity with which the object is moving.

The initial momentum of the car is:

$\fbox{\begin\\{p_i}= m{v_i}\end{minispace}}$ …… (I)

Here, ${p_i}$ is the initial momentum of the car, $m$ is the mass of the car and ${v_i}$ is the initial velocity of the car.

Substitute $700\,{\text{kg}}$ for $m$ and $29\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}$ for ${v_i}$ in equation (I).

$\begin{gathered}{p_i} = \left( {700\,{\text{kg}}} \right) \cdot \left( {29\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}} \right) \\ = 20300\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} \\ \end{gathered}$

The final momentum of the car is defined as the product of mass of car and the velocity of the car after collision or final velocity of the car.

The final momentum of the car is:

$\fbox{\begin\\{p_f} = m{v_f}\end{minispace}}$ …… (II)

Here, ${p_f}$ is the final momentum and ${v_f}$ is the final velocity.

Substitute $700\,{\text{kg}}$ for $m$ and - $4.5\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}$ for ${v_f}$ in equation (II).

$\begin{aligned}{p_f}&=\left( {700\,{\text{kg}}} \right)\cdot\left( {- 4.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}}\right)\\&=-3150\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{{\text{kg}}\cdot {\text{m}}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}\\\end{aligned}$

The change in the momentum of the car after collision is the difference between the momentum of car before collision and the momentum of car after collision.

The change in momentum of the car is:

$\fbox{\begin\Delta p = {p_f} - {p_i}\end{minispace}}$ …… (III)

Here, $\Delta p$ is the change in the momentum of the car.

Substitute $- 3150\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}$ for ${p_f}$ and $20300\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}$ for ${v_i}$ in equation (III).

$\begin{aligned}\Delta{p}&=-3150\text{ kg}.\text{m}/\text{s}\ -20300\text{ kg}.\text{m}/\text{s}\\&=-23450\text{ kg}.\text{m}/\text{s}\end{aligned}$

Thus, the change in the momentum of the car due to collision between car and wall is $\fbox{\begin\ -23450\text{ kg.m}/\text{s}\end{minispace}}$ or $\fbox{\begin\\-2.3450 \times {10^4}\,\text{kg.m}/{s}\end{minispace}}$ .

A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor a distance of 8.1 m. The force of friction

boyakko [2]

Given :

A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor a distance of 8.1 m.

The force of friction between the refrigerator and the floor is 230 N.

To Find :

How much work has been performed by the mover on the refrigerator.

Solution :

Since, refrigerator is moving with constant velocity.

So, force applied by the mover is also 230 N ( equal to force of friction ).

Now, work done in order to move the refrigerator is :

$W = Force\times distance\\\\W = 230 \times 8.1\ N\ m\\\\W = 1863\ N\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Define a variable. How does a variable relate to a constant?

Anettt [7]

By definition, Variable is "(of a quantity) able to assume different numerical values." By this, an example is 4x, as x is an unknown number, but has a value.
Constants are one constant value, unlike Variables.

What is an analogy of two different roads or rivers to compare a series and parallel circuit?

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

In a series circuit, the same amount of current flows through all the components placed in it. On the other hand, in parallel circuits, the components are placed in parallel with each other due to which the circuit splits the current flow.
