Yes it is !

The statement you have posted is true.

Its veracity is undebatable.

Its accuracy is impressive.

None may dispute its truthiness.

A reader's only logical reaction is "Uh huh !"

Acceleration is a derived unit because it is derived from two quantities : Velocity and time.

We know, acceleration = Change in velocity/Time

a 2000 kg truck is traveling at a velocity of 30 m/s. What velocity must a 1000 kg car have in order to have the same momentum a

Molodets [167]

The car should have a velocity of 60 m/s to attain the same momentum as that of the truck of 2000 kg.

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is measured as the product of mass of object with the velocity attained by that object.

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = Mass × Velocity

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = 2000×30 = 60000 N

Similarly, the momentum of 1000 kg car will be 1000× velocity of the 1000 kg car.

Since, it is stated that momentum of 2000 kg truck is equal to the momentum of 1000 kg of car, then the velocity of 1000 kg of car can be determined by equating the momentum of car and truck.

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = Momentum of 1000 kg car

60000=1000×velocity of 1000 kg car

Velocity of 1000 kg car = 60000/1000=60 m/s

So, the car should have a velocity of 60 m/s to attain the same momentum as that of the truck of 2000 kg.

Si la aceleración de gravedad en la superficie del planeta Mercurio es de 3,7 m/s2, entonces ¿cuál sería el peso de una persona

erica [24]

Answer:

W = 222 N.

Explanation:

The qiestion says" If the acceleration of gravity on the surface of the planet Mercury is 3.7 m / s2, then what would be the weight of a person with mass 60 kg on its surface? "

Mass of the person, m = 60 kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of gravity is 3.7 m/s²

We need to find the weight of a person on the surface of Mercury.

Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

So,

W = 60 kg × 3.7 m/s²

W = 222 N

Hence, the person will weigh 2222 N on the surface of Moon.

43 kg bear slides, from rest, 15 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.5 m/s just before hitting the ground. (a

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

-6327.45 Joules

650.375 Joules

378.47166 N

Explanation:

h = Height the bear slides from = 15 m

m = Mass of bear = 43 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v = Velocity of bear = 5.5 m/s

f = Frictional force

Potential energy is given by

$P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=43\times -9.81\times 15\\\Rightarrow P=-6327.45\ J$

Change that occurs in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide is -6327.45 Joules

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 43\times 5.5^2\\\Rightarrow K=650.375\ J$

Kinetic energy of the bear just before hitting the ground is 650.375 Joules

Change in total energy is given by

$\Delta E=fh=-(\Delta K+\Delta P)\\\Rightarrow fh=-(650.375-6327.45)\\\Rightarrow fh=5677.075\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{5677.075}{h}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{5677.075}{15}\\\Rightarrow f=378.47166\ N$

The frictional force that acts on the sliding bear is 378.47166 N
