The electric motor of a model train accelerates the train from rest to 0.620 m/s in 21ms. The total mass of the train is 825 g.
Rudiy27

Explanation:

Average power = change in energy / change in time

P = ΔE / Δt

P = (½ mv²) / t

P = (½ (0.825 kg) (0.620 m/s)²) / (0.021 s)

P = 7.55 Watts

10) A soccer player kicks a soccer ball (m = 0.42 kg) accelerating from rest to 32.5m/s in 0.21s. Determine the force that sends
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

(10) Mass of a soccer player, m = 0.42 kg

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 32.5 m/s

Time, t = 0.21 s

We need to find the force that sends soccer ball towards the goal.

Force, F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.42 \times (32.5-0)}{0.21}\\\\F=65\ N

So, 65 N of force soccer ball sends towards the goal.

(11) Mass of the satellite, m = 72,000 kg

Initial speed, u = 0 m/s

Final speed, v = 0.63 m/s

Time, t = 1296 s

We need to find the force is exerted by the rocket on the satellite.

Force, F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{72,000\times (0.63-0)}{1296}\\\\F=35\ N

So, 35 N of the force is exerted by the rocket on the satellite.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum spee dof 32.0 m/s. With what maximum sp
Dvinal [7]

Answer

Maximum speed at 75 m radius will be 22.625 m /sec

Explanation:              

We have given radius of the curve r = 150 m

Maximum speed v_{max}=32m/sec

Coefficient of friction \mu =\frac{v_{max}^2}{rg}=\frac{32^2}{150\times 9.8}=0.6965

Now new radius r = 75 m

So maximum speed at new radius v_{max}=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6965\times 75\times 9.8}=22.625m/sec
