Answer:

<h2>3 kg </h2>

Explanation:

The mass of an object given it's force and acceleration can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{15}{5}  = 3 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>3 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

A 99.1-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =
Stels [109]

Answer:

628.022466 N

8.61 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass

\mu = Coefficient of friction

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.646\times 99.1\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=628.022466\ N

Magnitude of frictional force is 628.022466 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F_f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{628.022466}{99.1}\\\Rightarrow a=6.33726\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-6.33726\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow u=8.61\ m/s

Initial speed of the player is 8.61 m/s

A hot air balloon is hovering in the air when it drops a 40 Kg food package to some lost golfers. If the package is dropped from
UNO [17]
We can calculate this with the law of conservation of energy. Here we have a food package with a mass m=40 kg, that is in the height h=500 m and all of it's energy is potential. When it is dropped, it's potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. So we can say that its kinetic and potential energy are equal, because we are neglecting air resistance:

Ek=Ep, where Ek=(1/2)*m*v² and Ep=m*g*h, where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body.

(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out and we get:

(1/2)*v²=g*h, and we multiply by 2 both sides of the equation

v²=2*g*h, and we take the square root to get v:

v=√(2*g*h)

v=99.04 m/s

So the package is moving with the speed of v= 99.04 m/s when it hits the ground.

Eddi Din [679]
Ahhh this going to be confusing sorry...
1. α = Δω / Δt = 28 rad/s / 19s = 1.47 rad/s²

2. Θ = ½αt² = ½ * 1.47rad/s² * (19s)² = 266 rads

3. I = ½mr² = ½ * 8.7kg * (0.33m)² = 0.47 kg·m²

4. ΔEk = ½Iω² = ½ * 0.47kg·m² * (28rad/s)² = 186 J

5. a = α r = 1.47rad/s² * 0.33m = 0.49 m/s²

6. a = ω² r = (14rad/s)² * 0.33m = 65 m/s²

7. v = ω r = 28rad/s * ½(0.33m) = 4.62 m/s

8. s = Θ r = 266 rads * 0.33m = 88 m

What does it mean, if the specific gravity of an object is less than one?​
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Specific gravity can be used to determine if an object will sink or float on water. ... If an object or liquid has a specific gravity greater than one, it will sink. If the specific gravity of an object or a liquid is less than one, it will float.

hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!
