Answer:

3000 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum, p is a product of mass and velocity hence

p=mv where m is mass and v is velocity.

Change in momentum is given by m(v_f-v_i) where subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the lorry finally comes to rest then the final velocity is zero. Substituting the given figures then

Change in momentum= 6000(0-0.5)=-3000 kg.m/s

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

(C) T

The tension T at equilibrium will be equal to the Buoyant force.

The Buoyant force is given by:

Fb = density x acceleration due to gravity x volume displaced

The change in height doesn't affect the Buoyant force and hence the tension.

A mine car, whose mass is 440kg, rolls at a speed of 0.50m/s on ahorizontal track, as the drawing shows. A 150kg chunk of coalha
ella [17]

Answer: 0.56 m/s

Explanation:

hello, there is 25° inclination angle for the chute in the drawing. Thankfully, I know this problem. The conservation of momentum.

so there are X and Y components for the momentum in this problem. The Y component is not conserved as when the coal gets in the cart, the normal force exerted by the surface reduces it to 0.

Now, the X component is definitely conserved here.

so you have the momentum of the cart which is 440*0.5 added to the momentum of the chunk which is 150*0.8*cos(25°), that is the momentum before the coupling between the objects. Afterwards both objects will have the same velocity, so we write the equation like this:

440*0.5 + 150*0.8*cos(25) = 440*v_{final} + 150*v_{final} \\ => 220+120*cos(25) = (440+150)v_{final} => v_{final} = \frac{220+120*cos(25)}{590}  = 0.56 m/s

1) A fan is to accelerate quiescent air to a velocity of 8 m/s at a rate of 9 m3/s. Determine the minimum power that must be sup
azamat

Answer:

\dot{W} = 339.84 W

Explanation:

given data:

flow Q = 9 m^{3}/s

velocity = 8 m/s

density of air = 1.18 kg/m^{3}

minimum power required to supplied to the fan is equal to the POWER POTENTIAL of the kinetic energy and it is given as

\dot{W} =\dot{m}\frac{V^{2}}{2}

here \dot{m}is mass flow rate and given as

\dot{m} = \rho*Q

\dot{W} =\rho*Q\frac{V^{2}}{2}

Putting all value to get minimum power

\dot{W} =1.18*9*\frac{8^{2}}{2}

\dot{W} = 339.84 W

You are using a rope to lift a 14.5 kg crate of fruit. Initially you are lifting the crate at 0.500 m/s. You then increase the t
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

W = 172.5 J

Explanation:

given,                                    

mass of the fruit crate = 14.5 kg

initial velocity to lift = 0.500 m/s

increase in the tension = 150 N

lift of crate = 1.15 m                  

work done by the tension = ?        

work done  = force x displacement

W = F s cos θ                                

θ = 0°                                    

W = F s x cos 0                                  

W = 150 x 1.15 x 1                

W = 172.5 J                                      

Work done on the crate by the tension force = W = 172.5 J

Calculate the average speed and average velocity of a complete round-trip in which the outgoing 250 km is covered at 95 km/h fol
ser-zykov [4K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From them we will consider speed as the distance traveled per unit of time. Said unit of time will be cleared to find the total time taken to travel the given distance. Later with the calculated average times and distances, we will obtain the average speed.

PART A)

The time taken to travel a distance of 250km with a speed of 95km/h is

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{250km}{95km/h}

t = 2.63h

Time taken for the lunch is

t = 1h

The time taken travel a distance of 250km with a speed of 55km/h

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{250}{55}

t = 4.54h

The total time taken is

t = t_{outgoing}+t_{lunch}}t_{return}

t = 2.63+1+4.54

t = 8.17h

The average speed is the ratio of total distance and total time

v = \frac{250+250}{8.17}

v = 61.15km/h

PART B)

As the displacement is zero the average velocity is zero.
