Answer:

9.6 Ns

Explanation:

Note: From newton's second law of motion,

Impulse = change in momentum

I = m(v-u).................. Equation 1

Where I = impulse, m = mass of the ball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity.

Given: m = 2.4 kg, v = 2.5 m/s, u = -1.5 m/s (rebounds)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 2.4[2.5-(-1.5)]

I = 2.4(2.5+1.5)

I = 2.4(4)

I = 9.6 Ns

What is the work done by the 200.-N tension shown if it is used to drag the 150-N crate 25 m across the floor at a constant spee
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Work equals force times distance, but the force is zero because the crate being dragged will have zero acceleration. Force equals mass times acceleration and since acceleration is zero, force has to equal zero as well. Since the force is zero, the work required also has to be zero.

suppose that 273 g of one of the substances listed above displaces 26 mL of water. What is the substance?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The unknown substance is silver. I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so 273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following: 10.07 Actinium 10.22 Molybdenum 10.5 Silver 11.35 Lead And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>

A resistor with resistance R and an air-gap capacitor of capacitance C are connected in series to a battery (whose strength is "
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

a) Q = C*emf

b)  Reduction in electric field strength and electric potential

c) Initial current through the resistor = emf/R

d) The final charge = K*C*emf

Explanation:

a) The resistors and capacitors are connected in series with the battery

Using Kirchoff's voltage law, sum of all voltages in the circuit is zero

Let V_{R} = Voltage dropped across the Resistor

V_{c} = Voltage dropped across the capacitor

Applying KVL;

emf - V_{R}  - V_{c} = 0\\.........................(1)

Since the connection is in series, the same current flow through the circuit

V_{R} = IR\\Q = CV_{c} \\V_{c} = Q/C

Putting V_{c} and V_{R} into equation (1)

emf - IR - Q/C = 0

At the final charge, the capacitor in fully charged, and current drops to zero due to equilibrium

I = 0A\\emf = Q/C\\Q = C* emf

b) Current starts running through the plate because as the sheet of plastic is inserted between the plates both the electric field intensity and the electric potential reduces. The charge also reduces, then current flows

c) The current through the resistor is the current through the entire circuit ( series connection)

I = I_{o} \exp(\frac{-t}{RC} )\\At time the initial time, t\\t = 0\\ I_{o} = \frac{emf}{R} \\

Putting the values of t and I₀ into the formula for I written above

I = \frac{emf}{R} \exp(0)\\I = \frac{emf}{R}

d) NB: The initial charge on the capacitor = C * emf

The final charge will be:

Q = K* Q_{initial} \\Q_{initial}  = C *emf\\Q_{final}  = KCemf

In Hooke's law, Fspring=kΔx , what does the Fspring stand for?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The amount of force acting on the spring.

Explanation:

Here, Fspring= kΔx  is a equation denoting the amount of force acting on the spring.

where, k = spring constant.

           Δx= change in the length of the spring.

so, for every Δx change in spring length, kΔx force acts on the spring.

You have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 1515 1515 lb and was
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Speed = 72.76mph

Explanation:

east direction signifies +

Therefore,

1515E -1125(45) = -2640

F = -2640×0.75 = -1980lbs

so,

-1980lbs = Ma

but m = 2640×g where g = 32.2 ft/s²

so,

a = -(1980/2640g) = -0.75×g = -24.15ft/s² = dv/dt

0 = V-24.15t

V =24.15t

22.5 = Vt -12.07t²

22.5 = 24.15t² - 12.07t² = 12.07t²

t = 1.37 seconds

Therefore,

V = 24.15 × 1.37 seconds = 33.1 ft/s

converting to mph gives

33.1 ft/s = 22.6 mph

now back to momentum

1515 E -1125(45) = 2640 V

1515 E = 50625+59664

Speed = 72.76 mph
