Explanation:

acceleration = 8/3.2 = 2.5m/s² ( acceleration due to gravity = g ).

mass = 85 kg.

weight = mg = 85×2.5 = 212.5N .

hope this helps you.

A horse 1 m tall running towards a tree at a constant velocity of 20m/s,
kykrilka [37]

The horse's position on the ground at time <em>t</em> is

<em>x</em> = (20 m/s) <em>t</em>

The baboon's height from the ground at time <em>t</em> is

<em>y</em> = 3 m - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

The baboon falls and lands on the horse, so that the two animals meet when the baboon's height is 2 m from the ground, which happens after

2 m = 3 m - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em>²

1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em>² = 1 m

<em>t</em>² = (2 m) / (9.80 m/s²)

<em>t</em> ≈ 0.452 s

In this time, the horse reaches the tree, so its distance from it is

(20 m/s) * (0.452 s) ≈ 9.04 m

a chuck wagon with an initial velocity of 4 m/s and a mass of 35 kg gets a push with 350 joules of force. what is the wagon's fi
Kitty [74]

Answer:

the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the wagon, u = 4 m/s

mass of the wagon, m = 35 kg

energy applied to the wagon, E = 350 J

The final velocity of the wagon is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

m(v^2-u^2) = 2E\\\\v^2-u^2 = \frac{2E}{m} \\\\v^2 =  \frac{2E}{m}  + u^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}  + u^2} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2(350)}{35}  + (4)^2}\\\\v = 6 \ m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
