In a collision between two objects, both objects experience forces that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. ... Thus, if the colliding objects have unequal mass, they will have unequal accelerations as a result of the contact force that results during the collision.

Calculate the amount of work for a car that exerts 10N and travels a distance of 5 meters.
lesya [120]

Answer:

50 j

Explanation:

W=Force*distance

W=10N*5M

W=50 NM

n*m = joules so you can say 50joules

A flow is isentropically expanded to supersonic speeds in a convergent-divergent nozzle. The reservoir and exit pressures are 1.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Ae/A* = 1.115

Explanation:

Let the reservoir pressure be  p_0

Let the exit  pressure be p_e

Ratio of reservoir pressure and exit pressure

\frac{p_o}{p_e} = \frac{1}{0.3143}

  = 3.182

For the above value of pressure ratio

Obtain the area ratio from the isentropic flow table

Ae/A* = 1.115

The value of pressure ratio is Ae/A* = 1.115

A basketball player standing under the hoop launches the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v₀ = 3.25 m/s from 2.5 m a
matrenka [14]

Answer: 0.53m

Explanation:

According to the equation of motion v²= v₀²+2as

Since the body is launched upward, the final velocity at the maximum height will be "zero" since the body will momentarily be at rest at the maximum height i.e v = 0

Initial velocity given (v₀) = 3.25 m/s

The body is also under the influence of gravity but the acceleration due to gravity will be negative being an upward force (a = -g) and the distance (s) will serve as our maximum height (h)

The equation of motion will.now become

V = v₀² -2gh

Where v = 0 v₀ = 3.25m/s g = 10m/s h = ?

0 = 3.25² - 2(10)h

0 = 10.56 - 20h

-10.56 = -20h

h = 10.56/20

h = 0.53m

Therefore, the maximum height, h (in meters), above the launch point that the basketball will achieve is 0.53m

7) Sound waves travel with a nominal speed of 340m/s.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The wavelengths of C1 is 10.4m, A6 is 0.193m and B7 is 0.0861m

Explanation:

Using the formula V = f×λ . Then substitute the following values into the formula:

a) v=340m/s

f=32.7 Hz

λ=V ÷ f

= 340 ÷ 32.7

= 10.4m (3s.f)

b) λ=340 ÷ 1760

= 0.193m (3s.f)

c) λ=340÷3951.1

= 0.0861m (3s.f)

(Correct me if I am wrong)
