2. How do you determine the direction of the linear momentum vector?

Physics

horrorfan [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: In symbols, linear momentum is expressed as p = mv. Momentum is directly proportional to the object's mass and also its velocity. Thus the greater an object's mass or the greater its velocity, the greater its momentum. Momentum p is a vector having the same direction as the velocity v.

Drop a rock from a 5-m height and it accelerates at 9.81 m/s^2 and strikes the ground 1s later. Drop the sane rock from a height
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A. The same amount

Explanation:

The acceleration at which objects free falls to the ground on Earth is constant and its value is always 9.81 m/s^2, regardless of their mass (in this problem we neglect air resistance).

So, it doesn't matter if the two rocks are different or they are launched from different heights: their acceleration will be exactly the same.

This can be proved this way: first of all, the force of gravity exerted on every object is equal to the weight of the object,

F=mg

where m is the mass of the object and g the acceleration of gravity.

However, we also know for Newton's second law that

F=ma

where a is the acceleration of the object.

Combining the two equations,

ma=mg\\a=g

So, the acceleration of an object in free fall is exactly the acceleration of gravity.

Which equation would you use to solve the following problem?
aivan3 [116]

The correct answer to the question is : C)The problem is asking to solve for work; W = F × d

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the distance covered by the object d = 29 m.

The force that acts on the object is F = 289 N.

We are asked to choose the correct equation for work done.

Work is said to be done on a body or by a body if the applied force has a component along the direction of displacement.

Mathematically work done W = force × displacement

                                                  = F × d

As per the question, we are given distance covered and applied force.

Hence, the correct equation for calculating work done by the object is equation C.
