The Millersburg Ferry (m = 13000.0 kg loaded) is travelling at 11 m/s when the engines are put in reverse. The engineproduces a

force of 1.0 x 106N for a period of 20.0 seconds.
a)What is the magnitude of the impulse from the engine?

b)What is the new momentum of the ferry?c)What is the new velocity of the ferry?

Answer:

(a) Impulse of the engine = 20*10^6 N.s

(b) New momentum of the ferry =  1985700 kgm/s

(c) The new velocity of the ferry = 1527.5 m/s

Explanation:

In the given problem, we have:

mass (m) = 13000 kg; velocity (v) = 11 m/s; Force (F) = 1.0*10^6 N; period (t) = 20 s.

From the Newton's law of motion, it is know that:

force*time = mass*velocity; and impulse = force*time

Thus:

(a) the magnitude of the impulse from the engine is:

Impulse = 1.0*10^6 * 20 = 20*10^6 N.s

(b) The new momentum of the ferry is equivalent to the difference between the engine momentum and the ferry momentum. Therefore, we have:

New momentum = Engine momentum - Ferry momentum

Ferry momentum = mass*velocity = 13000*11 =143000 kgm/s

Engine momentum = 1.0*10^6 * 20 = 20*10^6 N.s = 20*10^6 (kgm/s^2 *s) = 20*10^6 kgm/s

Therefore:

New momentum = 20*10^6 - 143000 =  1985700 kgm/s

(c) The new velocity of the ferry is:

v = new momentum/mass = 1985700/13000 = 1527.5 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Millersburg Ferry, m = 13000 kg

Velocity, v = 11 m/s

Applied force, F = 10⁶ N

Time period, t = 20 seconds

(a) Impulse is given by the product of force and time taken i.e.

J=F.\Delta t

J=10^6\ N\times 20\ s

J=2\times 10^7\ N-s

(b) Impulse is also given by the change in momentum i.e.

J=\Delta p=p_f-p_i

J=p_f-p_i

p_f=J+p_i

p_f=2\times 10^7\ N-s+13000\ kg\times 11\ m/s

p_f=20143000\ kg-m/s

(c) For new velocity,

v_f=\dfrac{p_f}{m}

v_f=\dfrac{20143000\ kg-m/s}{13000\ kg}

v_f=1549.46\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 10kg rocket is traveling at 80 m/s when the booster engine applies a constant forward force of 60 N for 3.0 seconds. What impu
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Impulse = 90

Resulting Velocity = 89

Explanation:

Use F * change in time = m * change in velocity.

For the first part of the question, the left side of the equation is the impulse. Plug it in.

60 * (3.0 - 0) = 90.

For the second half. we use all parts of the equation. I'm gonna use vf for the final velocity.

60 * (3.0 - 0) = 10 * (vf - 80). Simplify.

90 = 10vf - 800. Simplify again.

890 = 10vf. Divide to simplify and get the answer.

The resulting velocity is 89.

A steel ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 cm forms an image of an object that has been placed 1.1 cm away from the bearing’s sur
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

The image is virtual

The image is upright

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

Suppose that you purchased a water bed with the dimensions 2.55 m à 2.53 dm à 245 cm. what mass of water does this bed contain
Nadya [2.5K]

dimensions of the bed is given as

length = 2.55 m

thickness = 2.53 dm = 0.253 m

width = 245 cm = 2.45 m

now the volume of the bed is given as

V = 2.55 * 0.253 * 2.45 m^3

V = 1.581m^3

now the mass of water in it is given as

mass = density * volume

mass = 1000* 1.581

mass = 1581 kg

<em>so it will contain 1581 kg mass in it</em>

Which statement best explains why an object appears green in sunlight?
Helen [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are:

A) The object absorbs most white light and refracts most green light.

B) The object refracts most white light and absorbs most green light.

C) More green light is absorbed while more red and blue light is reflected.

D) More green light is reflected while more red and blue light is absorbed.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave that contains different colours at different wavelength. The colour of light that is seen depends on the wavelength of light that is REFLECTED, while other wavelengths of light are ABSORBED. This feature is dependent on the properties of each object that received the sunlight.

For example, an object will appear GREEN because it has properties that enables it to REFLECT most of the GREEN LIGHT but absorbs most of the RED AND BLUE LIGHT in the sunlight passing through the object.
