You want v2 = v1 + at
v is measured in m/s, a in m/s2, and t in s.
the dimensions multiply like algebraic quantities.
so because v2 is measured in m/s, then (v1 + at) has to come out in m/s
the units for (v1 + at) are (m/s) + (m/s2)(s)
time "s" cancels out one acceleration "s", so it comes ut to (m/s) + (m/s), which = (m/s).
if you had (v1t + a), then you would have (m/s)(s) + (m/s2) which = (m) + (m/s2), which doesn't work.
From the conservation of linear momentum of closed system,
Initial momentum = final momentum
Mass of the student, M = 59 kg
Mass of the laser boat, m = 42 kg
Initial speed of student + laser boat, u =0
Final speed of laser boat, v = 1.5 m/s
Final speed of the student = V
(M+m) u =M V +m v
0 = (59 kg) V + (42 kg) (1.5m/s)
V = - 1.06 m/s
Thus, the speed of the student is 1.06 m/s in the opposite direction of the motion of boat.
Answer: 80m
Explanation:
Distance of balloon to the ground is 3150m
Let the distance of Menin's pocket to the ground be x
Let the distance between Menin's pocket to the balloon be y
Hence, x=3150-y------1
Using the equation of motion,
V^2= U^s + 2gs--------2
U= initial speed is 0m/s
g is replaced with a since the acceleration is under gravity (g) and not straight line (a), hence g is taken as 10m/s
40m/s is contant since U (the coin is at rest is 0) hence V =40m/s
Slotting our values into equation 2
40^2= 0^2 + 2 * 10* (3150-y)
1600 = 0 + 63000 - 20y
1600 - 63000 = - 20y
-61400 = - 20y minus cancel out minus on both sides of the equation
61400 = 20y
Hence y = 61400/20
3070m
Hence, recall equation 1
x = 3150 - 3070
80m
I hope this solve the problem.
Answer:
The weight if the block is 10Newtons
Explanation:
The weight of any object is quantity of matter the object contains and it is always acting downwards on such body. This shows that the object is under the influence of gravity.
The weight of an object is calculated as mass of the object × its acceleration due to gravity
W = mg
Give the mass of the brick to be 1kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²
Weight of the object = 1 × 10
= 10kgm/s² or 10Newtons
Answer:
7350 J
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy of the rock sitting on the edge of the cliff is given by:

where
m is the mass of the rock
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the height of the cliff
In this problem, we have
m = 50 kg
g = 9.8 m/s^2
h = 15 m
Substituting numbers into the formula, we find:
