Answer: F = 1391 N

Explanation:

The information given to you are:

Mass M = 1300 kg

Acceleration a = 1.07 m/s^2

The magnitude of the force striking the building will be

F = ma

Where

F = force

Substitute mass M and acceleration a into the formula

F = 1300 × 1.07

F = 1391 N

Therefore, the wrecking ball strikes the building with a force of 1391 N

Calculate the mass of air in a room of floor dimensions =10M×12M and height 4m(Density of air =1.26kg/m cubic​
Alinara [238K]

The volume of the room is the product of its dimensions:

10\times 12 \times 4 = 480\text{ m}^3

Now, from the equation

d=\dfrac{m}{V}

where d is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume, we deduce

m=dV

So, multiply the density and the volume to get the mass of air in the room.

Phantasy [73]

Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface

Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards

Answer b): kinetic energy of the body

Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)

A mis-hit golf ball flies straight up in the air. Exactly 4.0 seconds later it lands right next to the tee. How high up did the
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

19.6 m

Explanation:

The total motion of the golf ball lasts 4.0 seconds: since the motion is symmetrical, it takes 2.0 s for the ball to reach the highest point and then another 2.0 s to land back on the tee.

Therefore, we can just analyze the second half of the motion that lasts

t = 2.0 s

During this time, the vertical distance covered by the ball is given by the equation:

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

u = 0 is the initial velocity (zero because the ball starts from its highest point, where the velocity is zero)

t = 2.0 s

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for d, we find:

d=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2.0)^2=19.6 m

So, the ball reaches a maximum height of 19.6 m.

The distance covered by a car at a time, t is given by x = 20t + 6t4, calculate
Anni [7]

Answer:

(i) v = 44 m/s

(ii) a = 72 m/s^2

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the potion of a car:

x=20t+6t^4

(i) The instantaneous velocity is the derivative of x in time:

\frac{dx}{dt}=20+(6)(4)t^3=20+24t^3

for t = 1 is:

v(t=1)=\frac{dx}{dt}=20+24(1)^3=44m/s

(ii) The instantaneous acceleration is the derivative of the velocity:

\frac{dv}{dt}=24(3)t^2=72t^2

for t = 1

a(t=1)=\frac{dv}{dt}=72(1)^2=72m/s^2
