The Millersburg Ferry (m = 13000.0 kg loaded) is travelling at 11 m/s when the engines are put in reverse. The engineproduces a
Pie

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Millersburg Ferry, m = 13000 kg

Velocity, v = 11 m/s

Applied force, F = 10⁶ N

Time period, t = 20 seconds

(a) Impulse is given by the product of force and time taken i.e.

J=F.\Delta t

J=10^6\ N\times 20\ s

J=2\times 10^7\ N-s

(b) Impulse is also given by the change in momentum i.e.

J=\Delta p=p_f-p_i

J=p_f-p_i

p_f=J+p_i

p_f=2\times 10^7\ N-s+13000\ kg\times 11\ m/s

p_f=20143000\ kg-m/s

(c) For new velocity,

v_f=\dfrac{p_f}{m}

v_f=\dfrac{20143000\ kg-m/s}{13000\ kg}

v_f=1549.46\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

you slide across home plate during baseball game. If you have a mass of 82 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between y
Tju [1.3M]

m = mass of the person = 82 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity acting on the person = 9.8 m/s²

F = normal force by the surface on the person

f = kinetic frictional force acting on the person by the surface

μ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.45

The normal force by the surface in upward direction balances the weight of the person in down direction , hence

F = mg                                          eq-1

kinetic frictional force on the person acting is given as

f = μ F

using eq-1

f = μ mg

inserting the values

f = (0.45) (82) (9.8)

f = 361.6 N
