Hi there!

Using the Impulse-Momentum theorem:

I = Δp = mΔv

Where:

I = Impulse (Ns)

m = mass of object (kg)

Δv = change in velocity (vf - vi, m/s)

Plug in the given values and solve:

60 = 5Δv

Δv = 12 m/s

A car travels 8km in 7 minutes. Find the speed of the car.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

42.6083 mi/h

Explanation:

Given: A car travels 8km in 7 minutes.

To find: Find the speed of the car.

Formula: $Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

Solution: Since the formula for the speed of an object (which is the car) is speed = distance ÷ time, divide the distance (8km) by the time (7min)

Speed = 42.6083 miles per hour

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t

Andru [333]

Answer:

$n_{glass} = 1.65$

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

$i = 50.0^o$

also we have angle of refraction as

$r = 27.7^o$

now by Snell's law we know that

$n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r$

$1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7$

now we have

$n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}$

$n_{glass} = 1.65$

A ship's wheel has a moment of inertia of 0.930 kilogram·meters squared. The inner radius of the ring is 26 centimeters, and the

Vikki [24]

We can use the formula of the moment of inertia given by:

$r\cdot F=I\alpha$

Where:

r = Distance from the point about which the torque is being measured to the point where the force is applied

F = Force

I = Moment of inertia

α = Angular acceleration

So:

$\begin{gathered} r\cdot F=(-0.26\times314+290\times0.32)=92.8-81.64=11.16 \\ I=0.930 \\ so,_{\text{ }}solve_{\text{ }}for_{\text{ }}\alpha: \\ \alpha=\frac{r\cdot F}{I} \\ \alpha=\frac{11.16}{0.930} \\ \alpha=\frac{12rad}{s^2} \end{gathered}$

Answer:

12 rad/s²
