Can I tell you what makes this problem so hard ?

It's having all the data WITHOUT HAVING THE STORY !

We first have to figure out what all those things are.  I mean, we don't even know what  F  is, what  d  is, what  Kef  or  Vi  is, or how  W  figures in to the whole thing.  You really have no mercy !

If my hunch is correct, the story goes like this:

-- There's an object sailing along, minding its own business, not bothering anybody, and its speed is 7.2 meters per second.

-- Somebody jumps out in front of the object and begins to push back on it with 215 Newtons of force, trying to slow it down and stop it.

-- The object is only able to go another 13 meters, pushing the guy backwards but slowing down, and then it stops.

-- The question is:  What is the mass of the object ?

Now I'll go ahead and solve the problem that I just invented:

-- Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

Before anybody touched it, the object's kinetic energy was

KE = (1/2) (mass) (7.2 m/s)²

KE = (25.92) x (mass)

-- Since that's the energy the object had, THAT's how much work the guy has to do in order to make the object stop.

Work = (force) x (distance)

Work = (215 N) x (13 meters)

Work = 2,795 N-m

-- And there you go.  The work the guy did to stop the object is the amount of energy the object had before he came along.

(25.92) x (mass of the object) = 2,795 N-m

Divide each side by 25.92:

Mass of the object = (2,795 N-m) / (25.92)

<em>Mass = 107.83 kilograms</em>

What is the relationship between the poles of a magnet? which direction does the magnet field move?
Assoli18 [71]
A magnet has a South Pole and a North Pole. South Pole and South Pole can't connect to her other, same as North and North. The same poles push each other away.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m
