Answer:
1. 38,500
2. 308,000
Explanation:
This would require a calculator. To find momentum, you multiply mass and velocity. You always want your mass to be measure in kilograms, but that is irrelevant in this question because they already are, it is just something to remember.
Answer:
3.28 m
3.28 s
Explanation:
We can adopt a system of reference with an axis along the incline, the origin being at the position of the girl and the positive X axis going up slope.
Then we know that the ball is subject to a constant acceleration of 0.25*g (2.45 m/s^2) pointing down slope. Since the acceleration is constant we can use the equation for constant acceleration:
X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
X0 = 0
V0 = 4 m/s
a = -2.45 m/s^2 (because the acceleration is down slope)
Then:
X(t) = 4*t - 1.22*t^2
And the equation for speed is:
V(t) = V0 + a * t
V(t) = 4 - 2.45 * t
If we equate this to zero we can find the moment where it stops and begins rolling down, that will be the highest point:
0 = 4 - 2.45 * t
4 = 2.45 * t
t = 1.63 s
Replacing that time on the position equation:
X(1.63) = 4 * 1.63 - 1.22 * 1.63^2 = 3.28 m
To find the time it will take to return we equate the position equation to zero:
0 = 4 * t - 1.22 * t^2
Since this is a quadratic equation it will have to answers, one will be the moment the ball was released (t = 0), the other will eb the moment when it returns:
0 = t * (4 - 1.22*t)
t1 = 0
0 = 4 - 1.22*t2
1.22 * t2 = 4
t2 = 3.28 s
The gravitational force between <em>m₁</em> and <em>m₂</em> has magnitude
while the gravitational force between <em>m₁</em> and <em>m₃</em> has magnitude
where <em>x</em> is measured in m.
The mass <em>m₁</em> is attracted to <em>m₂</em> in one direction, and attracted to <em>m₃</em> in the opposite direction such that <em>m₁</em> in equilibrium. So by Newton's second law, we have
Solve for <em>x</em> :
The solution with the negative square root is negative, so we throw it out. The other is the one we want,
