Find the mass of a football player who has 1250 N of force and has an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2.

Physics

Brums [2.3K]2 years ago

Answer:

833 kg

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

F is the net force acting on the object

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration

Here we know:

F = 1250 N

a=1.5 m/s^2

Therefore, we can solve the formula for m to find the mass of the object:

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{1250}{1.5}=833 kg

Barker is unloading 20kg bottles of water from this delivery truck when one of the bottles tips over and slides down the truck r
Degger [83]
<span>The overall force that is acting on the bottle is gravity. With the incline being 30 degrees the full force of gravity isn't acting on the bottle becuase the ramp isn't allowing the bottle to go straight down. By taking the sin of 30 degrees you find the proportion of gravity that is acting on the bottle to be 4.9 meters per second and the bottle weights 20 kg so the force acting on the bottle is 98 Newtons.</span>

7. A stream of water strikes a stationary turbine blade horizontally, as the drawing illustrates. The oncoming water stream has
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade is 960 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of water per second that strikes the blade is, \dfrac{m}{t}=30\ kg/s

Initial speed of the oncoming stream, u = 16 m/s

Final speed of the outgoing water stream, v = -16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade. It can be calculated using second law of motion as :

F=\dfrac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

F=30\ kg/s\times (-16-16)\ m/s

F = -960 N

So, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade is 960 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

To exercise, a man attaches a 4.0 kg weight to the heel of his foot. When his leg is stretched out before him, what is the torqu
Masja [62]

Answer:

B. τ = 16 Nm

Explanation:

In order to find the torque exerted by the weight attached to the heel of man's foot, when his leg is stretched out. We use following formula:

τ = Fd

here,

τ = Torque = ?

F = Force exerted by the weight = Weight = mg

F = mg = (4 kg)(10 m/s²) = 40 N

d = distance from knee to weight = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Therefore,

τ = (40 N)(0.4 m)

<u>B. τ = 16 Nm</u>

A rocket train car that is 30 m long is traveling from Los Angeles to New York at v=0.5c when a light at the center of the car f
Nataly [62]

Answer: The reference frame of a passenger in a seat near the center of the train

Explanation:

the speed of light is the same for the passenger and the bicyclist

then the avents are simultaneous fo the passenger not for the bicyclist

the delay between the two events for the bicyclist is

Δt=Δd/vs

where

Δd= lenght of train

vs=speed of sound

the reference frame of a passenger in a seat near the center of the train

Solution:

The space and time transformations are:

x' = γ(x - vt)

t' = γ(t - vx/c²).

In the primed frame the two events are simultaneous, so that Δt' = 0. Also here Δx' = 30. In the unprimed frame Δx' = 30 = γ(Δx - v Δt).......(*)

We also have Δt' = 0 = γ(Δt - vΔx/c²)→Δx = c²Δt/v......(**)

Substituting (**) in (*): 30 = γ(c²Δt/v - vΔt))→Δt = 30/(c²/v - v) =

30/(2c - 0.5c) = 6.7 x 10^(-8)s
