Answer from: tousif2663

Use the equation p = mv

P - Momentum : We need to find out

M - Mass : 14 kg

V - Velocity : ?

Sorry this wasn't much help, you should probably report me, but i tried my best to help you out :/

Answer from: shadowsnake

$2.3*10^{-23} m/s$

Explanation:

Momentum (p) is defined as the product of the mass (m) and velocity (v) of an object:

p=mv

There are different types of momentum. Linear momentum (caused by the linear motion of te rock) and angular momentum (caused by the angular velocity of the earth).

Initial momentum of the falling rock equals zero, because its initial velocity is zero. To find the momentum change, we need its final value, for which we need its final velocity.

The kinematic formula, which relates final velocity (v), initial velocity (v0), acceleration (a) and falling distance (h) is:

$v^{2}=v_{0} +2ah$

In this case:

v^2=0+2(9.8m/s^2)(5.0m)=98m^2/s^2

$v=\sqrt{98m^2/s^2}$

v=9.9m/s

Now, the change in momentum (dp) of the rock is simply is simply:

$dp=m*v-m*v_{0}=m(v-v_{0})$

dp=14kg(9.9m/s-0m/s)=139kg*m/s

For closed systems (like this earth-rock system), momentum is conserved. It means that a change in rock's momentum equals to an opposite but in the same magnitude momentum change of the earth. The initial momentum of the earth is also equal to zero. Matching changes in momentum:

$dP_{rock}=dP_{earth}\\14kg*9.9m/s=6.0*10^{24} kg*v$

Solving for v:

$v=2.3*10^{-23} m/s$

The, the change in earth's speed magnitude is 2.3*10^-23m/s

Answer from: Quest

weight of the box is given as

$w = 112.1 n$

here this is placed on the inclined of angle 42 degree

now this weight will have two components one is along the incline other is perpendicular to it

so here we need to apply a force parallel to incline opposite to its component of weight

so here the component of weight is given as

$w_x = w sin\theta$

here we have

$w = 112.1 n$

$w_x = 112.1 sin42$

$w_x = 75 n$

so it requires 75 n force to move it upwards

An charge with mass m and charge q is emitted from the origin, (x,y)=(0,0). a large, flat screen is located at x=l. there is a target on the screen at y position y(h), where y(h) > 0. in this problem, you will examine two different ways that the charge might hit the target. ignore gravity in this problem. 1.assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive x direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive y direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l. 2.now assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive y direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive x direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l.
