Force , F = ma

F =  m(v - u)/t               

Where m = mass in kg, v= final velocity in m/s, u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time, Force is in Newton.

m= 1.2*10³ kg,  u = 10 m/s,  v = 20 m/s, t = 5s

F =  1.2*10³(20 - 10)/5

F = 2.4*10³ N = 2400 N

A rectangular block weighs 240 N. the area of the block in contact with the floor is 20 cm2.calculate the pressure on the floor(
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

12 N/cm²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted by the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) =.?

Weight and force has the same unit of measurement. Thus, we force applied is equivalent to the weight of the block. Thus,

Force (F) = Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) = 240 N

Finally, we shall determine the pressure on the floor as follow:

Force (F) = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F/A

P = 240 / 20

P = 12 N/cm²

Therefore, the pressure on the floor is 12 N/cm².

Explain why the brakes of a car get much hotter than the brakes of a bicycle?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: Car brakes produces more energy then the bicycle because the cars wheels produces a much bigger force that makes the car go and to stop that force the car uses greater amount of energy that transfers to heat  but in a bicycle the wheels do not turn that fast so when you press the break there is less energy that transfer to heat.

A uniform magnetic field of 0.50 T is directed along the positive x axis. A proton moving with a speed of 60 km s enters this fi
tatuchka [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.5 T

Speed of the proton, v = 60 km/s = 60000 m/s

The helical path followed by the proton shown has a pitch of 5.0 mm, p = 0.005 m

We need to find the  angle between the magnetic field and the velocity of the proton. The pitch of the helix is the product of parallel component of velocity and time period. Mathematically, it is given by :

p=v_{||}\times T

p=v\ cos\theta\times \dfrac{2\pi m}{Bq}

cos\theta=\dfrac{pBq}{2\pi mv}

cos\theta=\dfrac{0.005\times 0.5\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{2\pi \times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 60000}

\theta=50.58^{\circ}

So, the angle between the magnetic field and the velocity of the proton is 50.58 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

A river flows with a uniform velocity vr. A person in a motorboat travels 1.22 km upstream, at which time she passes a log float
storchak [24]

Answer:

 t ’= \frac{1450}{0.6499 + 2 v_r},  v_r = 1 m/s       t ’= 547.19 s

Explanation:

This is a relative velocity exercise in a dimesion, since the river and the boat are going in the same direction.

By the time the boat goes up the river

        v_b - v_r = d / t

By the time the boat goes down the river

        v_b + v_r = d '/ t'

let's subtract the equations

       2 v_r = d ’/ t’ - d / t

       d ’/ t’ = 2v_r + d / t

       t' = \frac{d'}{ \frac{d}{t}+ 2 v_r }

In the exercise they tell us

         d = 1.22 +1.45 = 2.67 km= 2.67 10³ m

         d ’= 1.45 km= 1.45 1.³ m

at time t = 69.1 min (60 s / 1min) = 4146 s

the speed of river is v_r

      t ’= \frac{1.45 \ 10^3}{ \frac{ 2670}{4146} \  + 2 \ v_r}

      t ’= \frac{1450}{0.6499 + 2 v_r}

In order to complete the calculation, we must assume a river speed

          v_r = 1 m / s

       

let's calculate

      t ’= \frac{ 1450}{ 0.6499 + 2 \ 1}

      t ’= 547.19 s

Which of the following statements is correct? Which of the following statements is correct? The more a muscle shortens, the more
NeX [460]

The correct answer are

a)  "The number of muscle fibers best determines how powerful a muscle will be"

b) "The more a muscle shortens, the more power it generates."

Reason :

Muscle fiber in longitudinal directions generate more power

Multipennate muscles do not produce much power because the tendon branches within muscle .
