A 5.00 kilogram mass is traveling at 100. meters per second. Determine the speed of the mass after an impulse with a magnitude o
faltersainse [42]

m = mass = 5 kg

v_{i} = initial velocity = 100 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity = ?

I = impulse = 30 Ns

Using the impulse-change in momentum equation

I = m(v_{f} - v_{i})

30 = 5 (v_{f} - 100)

v_{f} = 106 m/s

A rabbit is moving in the positive x-direction at 1.10 m/s when it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of 10.9 m/s al
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

aₓ = 0 ,       ay = -6.8125 m / s²

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve with kinematics equations.

Initially the rabbit moves on the x axis with a speed of 1.10 m / s and after seeing the predator acceleration on the y axis, therefore its speed on the x axis remains constant.

x axis

          vₓ = v₀ₓ = 1.10 m / s

          aₓ = 0

y axis

initially it has no speed, so v₀_y = 0 and when I see the predator it accelerates, until it reaches the speed of 10.6 m / s in a time of t = 1.60 s. let's calculate the acceleration

         v_{y}= v_{oy} -ay t

          ay = (v_{oy} -v_{y}) / t

          ay = (0 -10.9) / 1.6

          ay = -6.8125 m / s²

the sign indicates that the acceleration goes in the negative direction of the y axis

Consider the two moving boxcars in Example 5. Car 1 has a mass of m1 = 65000 kg and a velocity of v01 = +0.80 m/s. Car 2 has a m
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

1.034m/s

Explanation:

We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,

m_1 = 65000kg\\v_1 = 0.8m/s\\m_2 = 92000kg\\v_2 = 1.2m/s

<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,

V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Substituting,

V_{cm} = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

V_{cm} = 1.034m/s

Part B)

For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where here v_f is the velocity after the collision.

v_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

v_f = 1.034m/s

An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0 km/hour is blowing southward.
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The speed of the plane relative to the ground is 300.79 km/h.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of wind = 75.0 km/hr

Speed of plane relative to the air = 310 km/hr

Suppose, determine the speed of the plane relative to the ground

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

\sin\theta=\dfrac{v'}{v}

Where, v'=speed of wind

v= speed of plane

Put the value into the formula

\sin\theta=\dfrac{75}{310}

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{75}{310})

\theta=14.0^{\circ}

We need to calculate the resultant speed

Using formula of resultant speed

\cos\theta=\dfrac{v''}{v}

Put the value into the formula

\cos14=\dfrac{v''}{310}

v''=\cos14\times310

v''=300.79\ km/h

Hence, The speed of the plane relative to the ground is 300.79 km/h.

Two electric force vectors act on a particle. Their x-components are 13.5 N and −7.40 N and their y-components are −12.0 N and −
guapka [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given two vectors as follows

E₁ = 13.5 i -12 j

E₂ = -7.4 i - 4.7 j

Resultant E = E₁ + E₂

= 13.5 i -12 j -7.4 i - 4.7 j

E = 6.1 i - 16.7 j

a ) X component of resultant = 6.1 N

b ) y component of resultant = -16.7 N

Magnitude of resultant = √ ( 6.1² + 16.7² )

= 17.75 N

d ) If θ be the required angle

tanθ = 16.7 / 6.1 = 2.73

θ = 70° .

counterclockwise = 360 - 70 = 290°
