A shoe and a shirt are released from the same height. They take different amounts of time to fall to the ground. How can this be

explained? (1 point) The difference in weight doesn't affect the time, but they are affected differently by air resistance. O The weight is equal on the two objects, but there is more air resistance on the shoe. O The masses of the two objects are the same, but they are affected differently by air resistance. O The weight is greater on the shoe than on the shirt, but there is equal air resistance on the objects.​

The best explanation for the difference in time is: A. The difference in weight doesn't affect the time, but they are affected differently by air resistance.

<h3>What is weight?</h3>

Weight can be defined as the force acting on an object or a physical body due to the effect of gravity. Also, the weight of an object (body) is typically measured in Newton.

<h3>The factors that affect weight.</h3>

Some of the factors that affect the weight that is possessed by an object or a physical body include the following:

  • Mass
  • Distance
  • Air resistance

In conclusion, the weight possessed by the shoe and shirt has no effect on time but would be affected differently by air resistance.

-A 1000 kg car is rolling down the street at 2.5 m/s. How fast would a 1800 kg car have to collide into it in
Readme [11.4K]

1.39m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car M₁ = 1000kg

Velocity V₁ = 2.5m/s

Mass of second car M₂ = 1800kg

Unknown:

Velocity of second car V₂ = ?

Solution:

For the other body to come to rest, the momentum of the colliding cars must be equal and in the opposite direction:

       Momentum of car 1 - momentum of car 2 = 0

 Momentum of car 1 = Momentum of car 2

  M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

The unknown is V₂

      1000x2.5 = 1800V₂

                  V₂ = \frac{2500}{1800} = 1.39m/s

A horizontal spring-mass system has low friction, spring stiffness 160 N/m, and mass 0.3 kg. The system is released with an init
anygoal [31]

Answer:

(a) 0.38 m

(b) 2.78 m/s

(c) 0.11 watt

Explanation:

mass, m = 0.3 kg

spring constant, K = 160 N/m

initial compression, d = 12 cm = 01.2 m

initial speed, u = 3 m/s

(a) Let the maximum stretch is y.

Use conservation of energy

Initial potential energy + initial kinetic energy = final potential energy

0.5 x K x d² + 0.5 x m x u² = 0.5 x K x y²

160 x 0.12 x 0.12 + 0.3 x 0.12 x 0.12 = 160 x y²

2.304 + 0.00432 = 160 y²

y = 0.38 m

y = 38 cm

(b) Let v is the maximum speed.

The speed is maximum when the stretch in the spring is zero, so by use of conservation of energy

Initial potential energy + initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy

0.5 x K x d² + 0.5 x m x u² = 0.5 x m x v²

160 x 0.12 x 0.12 + 0.3 x 0.12 x 0.12 = 0.3 x v²

2.304 + 0.00432 = 0.3 v²

v = 2.78 m/s

(c) The time period of the spring mass system is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{K}}

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.3}{160}}

T = 0.272 second

Energy dissipated per cycle = 0.03 J

Power, P = 0.03 / 0.272 = 0.11 Watt
