During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 2.5 km horizontally, 0.80 km up along the slope, and 2.0 m deep slips into a valley in a mud slide. assume that the mud ends up uniformly distributed over a surface area of the valley measuring 0.40 km 0.40 km and that mud has a density of 1900 kg/m3.what is the mass of the mud sitting above a 4.0 m2 area of the valley floor?

The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

length = 2.5 km

Width = 0.80 km

Height = 2.0 m

Length of valley = 0.40 km

Width of valley = 0.40 km

Density = 1900 Kg/m³

Area = 4.0 m²

We need to calculate the mass of the mud

Using formula of density

$\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}$

$m=\rho\times V$

Where, V = volume of mud

$\rho$ = density of mud

Put the value into the formula

$m=1900\times4.0\times0.40\times10^{3}$

$m =3040000\ kg$

Hence, The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.

Answer from: Quest

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

$f\alpha \frac{dp}{dt}$

⇒ $f= k \frac{dp}{dt}$

here k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

$f=\frac{dp}{dt}$

$f= \frac{d[mv]}{dt}$

$f= m\frac{dv}{dt} +v\frac{dm}{dt}$

$f=ma+v\frac{dm}{dt}$ [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
