creativ13 [48]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • 1N is the same as 1kgm/s2. F=  ma. For m and a, enter the numbers in the appropriate units.
  • For m, solve F = ma: m=F/a.
  • Plug in some numbers for F and a, with proper units, starting with m = F/a. Substitute what I said the N is equivalent to for the N. Cancel as much as you can until kg = kg. It's effective!

*Good luck!

Can someone please explain to me why the net force of the ball changes in the Y direction and not the X Direction? I made little
stiks02 [169]
Whenever an object is in projectile motion, that is, it has 2-dimensional motion in the x and y axis, the resultant force on the object is in the y-direction.
This is because once the object has been projected, or the ball has been kicked in this case, there is no longer a force being applied on it in the x-direction. The air resistance is also neglected so the ball's final velocity in the x-direction is equal to its initial velocity in the x-direction.
However, the force of gravity cannot be neglected and causes the ball to come downwards. Therefore, after the ball has been projected, the net force on the ball is downwards, due to gravity.

What is neccessary for a magnetic field to create electric current in a copper coil?

A, Lenz' Law. There need to be a difference of flux, so if you use AC you will get a current too.

How many times higher could an astronaut jump on the Moon than on Earth if his takeoff speed is the same in both locations (grav
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

maximum height on moon is 6 times more than the maximum height on Earth

Explanation:

Let the Astronaut has its maximum speed by which he can jump is "v"

now for the maximum height that it can jump is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 aH

now from above equation we will have

0 - v^2 = 2(-g)H

now we have

H = \frac{v^2}{2g}

now if Astronaut jump on the surface of moon with same speed

then we know that the acceleration of gravity on surface of moon is 1/6 times the gravity on earth

so at surface of moon we have

0 - v^2 = 2(-g/6) H

now we have

H = \frac{6v^2}{2g}

so maximum height on moon is 6 times more than the maximum height on Earth

A 4,000-kg car traveling at 20m/s hits a wall with a force of 80,000 N and comes to a stop. What was the impact time?
Nookie1986 [14]
Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
igomit [66]

Answer:

The maximum electric power output is P_{max} =1.339*10^{9} \ W

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The capacity of the hydroelectric plant is \frac{V}{t}   =  690 \ m^3 /s

         The level at which water is been released is h  =  220 \ m

        The efficiency is  \eta  =0.90

       

The electric power output is mathematically represented as

       P  = \frac{PE_l - PE _o}{t}

Where  PE_l is the potential energy at  level h which is mathematically evaluated as  

          PE_l  =  mgh

and  PE_o  is  the potential energy at ground level which is mathematically evaluated as  

          PE_o  =  mg(0)

         PE_o  =  0

So  

         P  = \frac{mgh}{t}

here  m  =   V *  \rho

where V is volume  and  \rho is density of water whose value is  \rho = 1000 kg/m^3

 So  

         P  = \frac{(\rho * V) * gh}{t}

        P  = \frac{V}{t} * gh \rho

substituting values  

       P  =690 * 9.8 * 220 * 1000

      P  =1.488*10^{9} \ W

The maximum possible electric power output is

           P_{max} = P * \eta

substituting values  

         P_{max} =1.488*10^{9} * 0.90

         P_{max} =1.339*10^{9} \ W
