Given data:
* The mass of the van is 1200 kg.
* The velocity of the van before the collision is 8 m/s.
* The velocity of the van after the collision is 0 m/s.
Solution:
(a). The momentum of the van before the collision is,
[tex]p_i=mv_i[/tex]where m is the mass of van, p_i is the momentum of van before the collision, and v_i is the velocity of van before the collision,
[tex]\begin{gathered} p_i=1200\times8 \\ p_i=9600kgms^{-1^{}} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the momentum of the van before the collision is 9600 kgm/s.
(b). The momentum of the van after the collision is,
[tex]p_f=mv_f[/tex]weere p_f is the final momentum, and v_f is the final velocity of the van,
Substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} p_f=1200\times0 \\ p_f=0^{} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the momentum of the van after the collision is 0 kgm/s.
(c). The change in the momentum of the van is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} dp=p_f-p_i \\ dp=0-9600 \\ dp=-9600kgms^{-1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Here, the negative sign indicates that the momentum of van is decreasing with time.
Thus, the change in the momentum of the van is -9600 kgm/s.
(d). According to the Newton's second law, the force acting on the van in terms of the change in momentum is,
[tex]F=\frac{dp}{dt}[/tex]where dt is the time interval in which the momentum of the van changes,
Substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} F=-\frac{9600}{0.30} \\ F=-32000\text{ N} \\ F=-32\times10^3\text{ N} \\ F=-32\text{ kN} \end{gathered}[/tex]Here, the negative sign is indicating the direction of force acting on the van is opposite to the direction of motion of van before the collision.
Thus, the force acting on the van is -32 kN.

You wish to lift a 720N crate of bricks to the 3rd floor of a building in a construction site. The 3rd floor is 16m high. How much work will that require?
ANSWER
[tex]11,520J[/tex]EXPLANATION
Parameters given:
Weight (force), F = 720N
Height (distance), d = 16m
To find the work required to lift the crate to the 3rd floor, we have to find the product of the force (weight of the crate) and the distance it will be lifted.
Therefore, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=F\cdot d \\ W=720\cdot16 \\ W=11,520J \end{gathered}[/tex]That is the work that it will require.
You yell down a very deep well and it takes 1.5 s for your echo to return. If the speed of sound is 340 m/s then how deep is the well ?
We know that
• The time of the echo to return is 1.5 seconds.
,• The speed of the sound is 340 m/s.
It's important to consider that the sound wave has a constant speed, that is, it doesn't change its velocity. Therefore, we have to use the relation
[tex]d=v\cdot t[/tex]Where t = 1.5 sec and v = 340 m/s. Let's find d
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=340m/s\cdot1.5\sec \\ d=510m \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the well is 510 meters deep.I think this is all statements are true but I just want to make sure
Given that a bug flies into the windshield of a car going. Let's select the correct statements.
According the NEwton's third law, the force exerted on the bug by the car is equal to the force extered on the car by the bug.
To determine the acceleration, we have:
[tex]a=\frac{F}{m}[/tex]Where:
F is the force
m is the mass
The mass of the car will be greater than the mass of the bug.
Since the mass of the car is greater than the mass of the bug and they have the same force, we can say the acceleration of the bug is greater than the acceleration of the car.
Statement B is correct.
The force of impact is the same for both according to Newton's third Law.
Both the car and the bug deliver the same magnitude of impulse on each other.
Therefore, all statements are correct.

All statements are true.
I need help with #2 it off s for practice
First, find the acceleration using Newton's Second Law.
[tex]\begin{gathered} F=ma \\ a=\frac{F}{m} \end{gathered}[/tex]Where F = 8.10x10^5 N and m = 1.40x10^7 kg.
[tex]a=\frac{8.10\times10^5N}{1.40\times10^7\operatorname{kg}}=5.79\times10^{-2}\cdot\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]Then, use a formula that relates acceleration, initial velocity, final velocity, and time.
[tex]v_f=v_0+at[/tex]Solve for t because the problem is asking to find the time.
[tex]\begin{gathered} v_f-v_0=at_{} \\ t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a} \end{gathered}[/tex]Where vf = 64 km/h, v0 = 0, and a = 5.79x10^-2 m/s^2. Before we continue, we need to transform the final velocity to m/s.
[tex]v_f=64\cdot\frac{km}{h}\cdot\frac{1000m}{1\operatorname{km}}\cdot\frac{1h}{3600\sec}=17.78\cdot\frac{m}{s}[/tex]Once we have the velocity transformed, we are able to find t.
[tex]\begin{gathered} t=\frac{17.78\cdot\frac{m}{s}-0}{5.79\times10^{-2}\cdot\frac{m}{s^2}} \\ t=3.07\times10^2\sec \\ t=307\sec \end{gathered}[/tex]But, the answer must be in minutes.
[tex]t=307\sec \cdot\frac{1\min}{60\sec}=5.12\min [/tex]Therefore, it takes 5.12 minutes.
Water flows through a pipe diameter of 8.000 cm at 49.0 m/min. Find the flow rate in m3/min
We are asked to determine the volumetric flow rate through a pipe of diameter 8.000 cm. To do that we will use the following formula:
[tex]R=Av[/tex]Where:
[tex]\begin{gathered} R=\text{ volumetric flow rate} \\ A=\text{ cross-area of the pipe} \\ v=\text{ velocity of the flow} \end{gathered}[/tex]The cross-area of the pipe is the area of a circle and is given by:
[tex]A=\frac{\pi D^2}{4}[/tex]Where:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\text{ cross-area} \\ D=\text{ diameter} \end{gathered}[/tex]Before we determine the area we will convert the diameter from cm to meters using the following conversion factor:
[tex]100cm=1m[/tex]Multiplying by the conversion factor we get:
[tex]8.000cm\times\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.080m[/tex]Now, we plug in the value in the formula for the area:
[tex]A=\frac{\pi(0.080m)^2}{4}[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex]A=0.005m^2[/tex]Now, we plug in the values of area and velocity in the formula or the volumetric flow rate:
[tex]R=(0.005m^2)(49.0\frac{m}{\min })[/tex]Solving the operations:
[tex]R=0.246\frac{m^3}{min}[/tex]Therefore, the flow rate is 0.246 cubic meters per minute.

How much work must be done to stop a 1100-kg car traveling at 112 km/h?(Hint: You will need to convert the speed first.)Answer: ___________ J (round to the nearest whole number)
According to the Work-Energy Theorem, the work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object:
[tex]W=\Delta K[/tex]Since the car ends with a kinetic energy of 0J (because it stops), then the work needed to stop the car is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the car:
[tex]K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]Replace m=1100kg and v=112km/h. Write the speed in m/s. Remember that 1m/s = 3.6km/h:
[tex]\begin{gathered} K=\frac{1}{2}(1100kg)\left(112\frac{km}{h}\times\frac{1\frac{m}{s}}{3.6\frac{km}{h}}\right)^2=532,345.679...J \\ \\ \therefore K\approx532,346J \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the answer is: 532,346 J.

A feather and a bowling ball are each dropped from an equal height in a vacuum and land at the same time. Which graph shows the total mechanical energy of the bowling ball as it falls?
The total mechanical energy of the bowling ball and the feather is shown by the graph in option D
What is the total mechanical energy?We know that the mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by a body by virtue of its motion or by virtue of its staying at a place. Thus mechanical energy is possessed by an object that is moving or by an object that is at rest.
In this case, we have a feather and a bowling ball are each dropped from an equal height in a vacuum and land at the same time. We know that the mechanical energy of the two objects must be constant. This is because, the potential energy of the feathers and the ball at a height is converted to kinetic energy as the two objects begin to move.
The graph that would show the total energy must be one in which the energy axis of the graph is constant as we see in option D.

I need help with this table pleasecalculate relative density of steel. Use table 3
Take into account that the relative density is given by:
[tex]\rho_{\text{rel}}=\frac{\rho}{\rho_{\text{water}}}[/tex]where ρ, in this case, is the density of the steel and ρwater is the density of water (1000 kg/m^3).
The density of the steel is:
[tex]\rho=\frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}[/tex]Based on table 3, you have:
mass = 50.7 g = 0.0507 kg
volume = 0.0000063 m^3
[tex]\rho=\frac{0.0507kg}{0.0000063m^3}\approx8047.62\frac{kg}{m^3}[/tex]Then, for the relative density you obtain:
[tex]\rho_{\text{rel}}=\frac{\rho}{\rho_{\text{water}}}=\frac{8047.62\frac{kg}{m^3}}{1000\frac{kg}{m^3}}\approx8.048[/tex]Hence, the relative density of steel is 8.048

A 0.2-kg aluminum plate, initially at 20°C, slides down a 15-m-long surface, inclined at a 30°angle to the horizontal. The force of kinetic friction exactly balances the component ofgravity down the plane so that the plate, once started, glides down at constant velocity. If90% of the mechanical energy of the system is absorbed by the aluminum, what is itstemperature increase at the bottom of the incline? (Specific heat for aluminum is 900J/kg⋅°C.) Why do I multiply 15 by sin30?
A scheme of a the given situation is shown below:
First, consider that the work over the plate is done only by the component of the weight parallel to the incline (due to the perpendicular component is balanced by the friction force), then, the work on the plate is:
W = m*g*d*sinθ
where,
m: mass = 0.2kg
d: length of the incline = 15m
g: gravitational acceleration constant = 9.8m/s^2
θ = 30
By replacing the previous values into the expression for W, you obtain:
W = (0.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(15 m)sin(30)
W = 14.7 J
Now, take into account that the amount of heat absorbed by the aluminum plate is given by the following formula:
Q = m*c*ΔT
Q: heat
m: mass
c: specific heat
ΔT: change in tempetaure
Take into account that the 90% of the mechanical energy is absorbed by the plate, which means that 0.9 of the work is converted to absorbed heat by the plate.
Then, you can write:
0.9W = Q
0.9(14.7J) = Q
13.23J = Q
Replace the given expression for Q into the previous equation and solve for ΔT, as follow:
m*c*ΔT = 13.23 J
ΔT = 13.23J/(m*c)
Now, replace the values of m and c for aluminum and simplify:
ΔT = 13.23J/(0.2kg*900J/kg°C)
ΔT = 0.0735°C
Hence, the temperature increase at the bottom of the incline is approximately 0.07°C
In the graph of a bus his journey through town. Which of the following choices best represent where the bus is decelerating
Answer:
The bus is decelerating from B to C
Explanation:
The graph given shows the velocity of a bus at certain points in time. Higher the point on the graph, the higher the veocity. Now, the bus decelerates when its speed reduces from a higher value to a lower value. This we see as happening from point B to point C.
Hence, the bus decelerates from B to C.
At other points, you see the bus as either accelerating ( from O to A and D to E) or standing still (from A to B, C to D, and E to F). Only from B to C does the bus decelerate.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Given:
mass (m) = 10 g = 0.01 kg
velocity (v) = 3 m/s
The kinetic energy is given by the following formula:
[tex]K_E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]We replacing:
[tex]\begin{gathered} K_E=\frac{1}{2}\cdot0.01\cdot3^2 \\ K_E=0.045\text{ J} \end{gathered}[/tex]The kinetic energy is 0.045 joules.
For an object starting from rest and accelerating with constantacceleration, distance traveled is proportional to the square of thetime. If an object travels 2.0 furlongs in the first 2.0 s, how far willit travel in the first 4.0 s?
Since the object is accelerating with constant acceleration we can use the following formula for the position of the object:
[tex]x=x_0+v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]where x0 is the initial position, v0 is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time. In this case, the initial position and velocity are zero. Plugging the values given we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2=\frac{1}{2}a(2)^2 \\ 2=2a \\ a=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the acceleration of the object is 1 furlong per second per second.
Once we know the acceleration we can use the same formula to determine how far the object will travel in four seconds.
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{1}{2}(1)(4)^2 \\ x=\frac{16}{2} \\ x=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the object will travel 8 furlongs in four seconds.
If the man and woman are taken to a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is twice that of earth repeat the woman mass was 25kg on earth and the man was 300N on another planet
The mass of the woman is 25 kg because the mass is constant.
The mass of the man can be found using the formula: W = mg, where g is double Earth's gravity.
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{W}{g} \\ m=\frac{300N}{2\cdot9.8\cdot\frac{m}{s^2}} \\ m=\frac{300}{19.6}kg \\ m\approx15.3\operatorname{kg} \end{gathered}[/tex]The mass of the man is 15.3 kg.
The weight of the man on Earth can be found with the same formula but using Earth's gravity.

At last, the weight of the woman on Earth can be found using the same method before.
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=25\operatorname{kg}\cdot9.8\cdot\frac{m}{s^2} \\ W=245N \end{gathered}[/tex]The weight of the woman on Earth is 245N.
explain how the intensity of the UV light vaires across the Earth
Some factors determine the amount of UV radiation that reach certain part of Earth's surface. They are listed and briefly explained below:
• Cloud coverage. Water molecules on clouds scatter the radiation, hence the more clouds the less UV radiation.
,• Ozone. Similarly as cloud coverage, the more concentration of ozone the less UV radiation that reaches the surface of the Earth.
,• Angle of incidence. If the angle of incidence of the UV light is oblique the light will spread in a wider area, and hence the intensity is spread across this area.
,• Aerosols. The molecules of aerosols also scatter the UV light.
,• Elevation. The more the elevation the greater the amount of UV light.
