Mrs. Fatima has a a small sports car that she uses to drop her kids off from school that has a mass of 5000 kg. Mr. Zaid drives

a truck with a mass of 4200 kg. If the two vehicles are travelling down the road, side by side, at a speed of 75 km/hr, which one will have the most momentum? Explain *

$\textbf{Use equation of momentum}$

$p=mv$

$\text{momentum\ =\ mass x velocity}$

$\textbf{Substitute in the values}$

$5000 \times 75 = 375,000 \text{\ kg\ km/hr}$

$4200 \times 75 = 315,000 \text{\ kg\ km/hr}$

$\textbf{The\ small\ sports\ car\ will\ have\ the\ most\ momentum.}$

4. Derive<br>the relation, P= hd g

Sergeu [11.5K]

p=F/A

or,P=d×V×G/A (m=d×V)

or,p= d× A×h×g/A (A and A are cut)

or,P=d×H×G

What will be the final velocity of a rock if we drop it off of a bridge and it strikes the ground 2.8s later (ignoring air resis

mars1129 [50]

Formula for final velocity: Vf= vi+(a*t)
Vi- initial velocity, a=acceleration, t-time

Vf=vi+(at)
Vf= 0+(9.8m/s*2.8s)
Vf= 27.44 m/s

The acceleration of the Earth when dropping something would be 9.8 m/s

Here is an reference that can help you answer problems like these.
Hope this helps and good luck :)

An AC adapter for a telephone answering machine uses a transformer to reduce the line voltage of 120 V to a voltage of 5.00 V. T

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial voltage, $V_1=120 V$

Final voltage, $V_2=5 V$

Number of tuns in primary coil of the transformer, $N_p=840$

Rms current, $I_{rms}=580mA=580\times 10^{-3} A$

$1 mA=10^{-3} A$

We have to find the number of turns are there on the secondary coil.

We know that

$\frac{N_s}{N_p}=\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

Using the formula

$\frac{N_s}{840}=\frac{5}{120}$

$N_s=\frac{5}{120}\times 840=35$

Hence, there are number of turns on the secondary coil=35

1)the car's engine power is 44000W. Explain this number in a physical sense

Ratling [72]

Answer:

1) It expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) P = 20 W

3) h = 18 km

Explanation:

1) Power is the rate of transfer of energy.

⇒ Power = $\frac{Energy(or workdone)}{Time}$

i.e P = $\frac{E}{t}$

Thus a car's engine power is 44000W implies that the engine of the car can propel the car at this rate. This expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) m = 400g = 0.4 kg

t = 20 s

h = 100m

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$
