Answer:

5.8\; {\rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Explanation:

If the mass of an object is m and the velocity of that object is v, the linear momentum of that object would be m\, v.

Assume that the initial velocity of the mass is positive (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}.) However, the direction of the velocity is reversed after the impact. Thus, the sign of the new velocity of the object would be negative- the opposite of that of the initial velocity. The new velocity would be (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}).

Thus, the change in the velocity of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned}& (\text{Change in Velocity}) \\ =\; & (\text{Final Velocity}) - (\text{Initial Velocity}) \\ =\; & (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ =\; & (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1})\end{aligned}.

The change in the linear momentum of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned} & \text{change in momentum} \\ =\; & (\text{mass}) \times (\text{change in velocity}) \\ =\; & 0.58\; {\rm kg} \times (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\  =\; & (-5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}})\end{aligned}.

Thus, the magnitude of the change of the linear momentum would be 5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

The two conducting rails in the drawing are tilted upwards so they each make an angle of 30.0° with respect to the ground. The v
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.045 T

Mass of aluminum rod  = 0.19 kg

Length = 1.6 m

Angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the force

Using resolving force

F\cos\theta=mg\sin\theta

F=mg\tan\theta

Put the value into the formula

F=0.19\times9.8\times\tan30

F=1.075\ N

We need to calculate the current flows through the rod

Using formula of magnetic force

F=iLB

i=\dfrac{F}{LB}

Put the value into the formula

i=\dfrac{1.075}{1.6\times0.045}

i=14.9\ A

Hence, The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Calculate the acceleration of a car that begins at rest at a stop light and accelerates to a speed of 20m/s in a 10 sec time per
Dominik [7]
A = delta v over delta t delta v is calculated with final velocity less initial velocity then delta v is equals to 20 - 0 that is 20m/s and to calculate delta t is like delta v is final time less initial time as initial time always is 0 the delta t is equals to 10s then a = 20/10 then acceleration is 10m/s^2 (remember that is squared)

A 50.1 kg diver steps off a diving board and drops straight down into the water. The water provides an average net force of resi
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The total distance is 16.9 m

Explanation:

We understand work in physics as certain force exerted through certain distance. To reach that point below the water, the work done by the diver must be equal to the work done by the water's force of resistance. Therefore, we determine both work expressions and we solve the equation for the diver distance, which is the total distance between the diving board and the stopping point underwater.

W_{d}: work done by diver\\W_{R}: work due the force of resistance\\W_{d} = W_{R}\\F_{d}\times d_{d}=F_R \times d_{R}\\d_{d}= \frac{F_R \times d_R}{F_d}= \frac{F_R \times d_R}{m_d \times g}= \frac {1598 N \times 5.2 m}{50.1 kg \times 9.81 m/s^2}\\d_{d}= 16. 91 m
