Physics 1210: Mechanics

• Constants:
  • Gravity (g) = 10.0 m/s²
  • Gravitational Constant (G) = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Question 1: Time Rate of Change of Linear Momentum

• The time rate of change of linear momentum of a body is equal to the applied force.
  • Linear momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity.
  • The change in momentum is calculated as the mass times the change in velocity.

Question 2: Dimensional Formula MLT

• Momentum has the dimensional formula MLT.
  • M = mass, L = length, T = time.
  • Momentum is calculated as mass times velocity.

Question 3: Constant Acceleration

• A car decelerates from 10 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.
• Determining the acceleration (a) using the formula: a = (vf - vi) / t = (6 - 10) / 2 = -2 m/s².
• Calculating the distance traveled (s) using the formula: s = vi*t + (1/2)at² = 10 * 2 + (1/2) * -2 * 2² = 16 meters.

Question 4: Constant Acceleration

• An object decelerates from 12 m/s to rest (vf = 0 m/s) over 20 meters.
• Calculating the acceleration (a) using the formula: a = (vf² - vi²) / 2s = ( 0² - 12²) / (2 * 20) = -3.6 m/s².
