A 50.0 kg child is riding in a 120.0 kg bumper car at an amusement park. The child drives the bumper car at 4.5 m/s head-on into the wall of the ride and rebounds at the speed. What is the magnitude of the change in momentum of the child in the bumper car?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Total mass of child and car = 50 + 120 = 170 kg .

initial velocity u = 4.5 m/s

initial momentum = mass x velocity = 170 x 4.5 = 765 kg m/s

final velocity = - 4.5 m/s [ - ve is due to reversal of direction ]

final momentum = - 765 kg m/s

change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum

= - 765 - ( 765 )

= - 1530 kg m/s .

Answer 2

Momentum of a body is the product of mass and the velocity of the body.

The magnitude of the change in the momentum of the child in the bumper car is 1530 kg-m/s.

What is change in momentum?

The change in momentum of a object is the difference of the final momentum to the initial momentum.

Given information-

The mass of the child is 50 kg.

The mass of the bumper car is 120 kg.

The initial velocity of the bumper car is 4.5 m/s.

Momentum of a body is the product of mass and the velocity of the body. The initial momentum of the child in the bumper car is,

[tex]p_i=(m_c+m_b)u[/tex]

Here, [tex]m_c[/tex] is the mass of child and [tex]m_b[/tex] is the mass of the bumper car. Also [tex]u[/tex] is the initial velocity,

[tex]p_i=(50+120)\times4.5\\p_i=765[/tex]

Thus the initial momentum of the child in the bumper car is 765 kg-m/s.

When the bumper car head-on into the wall of the ride then it rebounds at the speed. Thus the final momentum will be opposite in the direction. Thus final momentum is,

[tex]p_f=-p_i\\p_f=-765[/tex]

As the change in momentum of bumper car is the difference of the its final momentum to the initial momentum. thus,

[tex]\Delta p=pf-pi\\\Delta p=-765-765\\\Delta p=-1530[/tex]

Hence the magnitude of the change in the momentum of the child in the bumper car is 1530 kg-m/s.

What is potential energy ?

"Potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors." An object can store energy as the result of its position. For example, the heavy ball of a demolition machine is storing energy when it is held at an elevated position. This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy. Similarly, a drawn bow is able to store energy as the result of its position.

Select one

-They will increase the demand for electricity
-They will be available for many years.
-They make electricity less dangerous.

Answers

Answer:

-They will be available for many years.

Explanation:

The advantage of using renewable resources is that they will be available for many years.

Renewable resources have very fast turn over time for replenishing, therefore, they are available over an extended period time.

They are not used by consumption and so they will continually be available. This is different from the non-renewable resources which are depleted as they are being used up.

Examples of renewable resources are wind, water and air

A hurdler is 0.635 m from a hurdle when he jumps at 3.22 m/s at a 62.9 degrees angle. How many seconds later does he clear the hurdle? (Hint: it is not necessarily at the highest point in his motion.) (Unit = s) Watch sig figs.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The horizontal distance of the hurdle = .635 m

This distance is covered by hurdler by horizontal component of his velocity

horizontal component of hurdler's initial velocity = 3.22 x cos 62.9

= 1.4668 m /s

displacement in horizontal direction = .635 m , acceleration = 0 as no force acts in horizontal direction .

So time taken to clear the hurdle

= .635 / 1.4668 s

= .433 s .

How does convection create wind patterns at a beach? A. The Sun heats the water and the land equally during the day, but at night heat from the land rises, causing warm air over the water to rush toward shore. B. Electromagnetic waves from the Sun are absorbed in Earth's atmosphere, which is warmed and then reemits the heat as electromagnetic waves. C. Increasing temperature means greater kinetic energy, and the kinetic energy shows itself as movement of the air molecules. D. During the day, air over the warm land heats up and rises, while cooler air that was over the water is drawn in to shore to replace it. SUBMIT​

Answers

Answer:

D. During the day, air over the warm land heats up and rises, while cooler air that was over the water is drawn in to shore to replace it.

Explanation:

Convection creates wind patterns at a beach by the force of land and sea breeze which are different wind patterns that move air masses.

Convection is a form of heat transfer that occur mainly in fluids such as gases and in liquids.

During the day, the air over the land is warmed. The land is a good conductor heat better than the ocean. This air masses rises and move towards the ocean. The colder air from the ocean moves landward to replace this air mass.

As the cold air gets warmer at land, it rises and move ocean-ward again.
