Answer 1

All the answers are solved and explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This questions lacks the initial and most necessary data to answer these following questions. I have found a related question. I will be considering that question to carry out the answers.

Question: A car with a mass of 1000 kg is at rest at a spotlight. when the light turns green, it is pushed by a net force of 2000 N for 10 s. (This was the information missing in this question).

Data Given:

m = 1000 kg

F = 2000N

t = 10s

Q1 Solution:

Acceleration = a = ?

F = ma

a = F/m

a = 2000/ 1000

a = 2
`m/s^(2)`

Q2: Solution:

Change in velocity = Δv = ?

acceleration = change in velocity / time

a = Δv/t

Δv = axt

Δv = 2 x 10

Δv = 20 m/s

Q3: Solution:

Impulse = I = ?

Impulse = Force x time

I = 2000 x 10

I = 20000 Ns

Q4: Solution:

Change in Momentum = Δp = ?

Δp = mΔv

Δp = 1000 x 20

Δp = 20000 Kgm/s

Q5: Solution:

Final velocity of the car at the end of 10 seconds = vf = ?

Δp = m x Δv

Δp = m x (vf-vi)

Δp = 1000 x (vf - 0 )

20000 = 1000 x vf

vf = 20000/1000

vf = 20 m/s

Q6: Solution:

Change in momentum the car experiences as it continues at this velocity?

Δp = ?

Δp = mΔv

Δp = m x (0)

Δp = 0

Q7: Solution:

Impulse = Change in momentum

Impulse = Δp

Implulse = 0

Q8: Solution:

Change in momentum = Δp = mΔv

Δp = m(vf-vi)

Δp = 1000 x (0-20)

Δp = -20000 kgm/s

Q9: Solution:

Impulse = Δp

Impulse = -20000 Ns

Q10: Solution:

Impulse = ?

Impulse = F x t

F = impulse/t

F = -20000/4s

F = -5000 N

Q11: Solution:

F = ma

a = ?

a = F/m

a = -5000/1000

a = -5
`m/s^(2)`
