Achild is sliding on a sled at 1.5 m/s to the right. you stop the sled by pushing on it for 0.60 s in a direction opposite to its motion. if the mass of the child and sled is 41 kg, what is the magnitude of the average force you need to apply to stop the sled? use the concepts of impulse and momentum. express your answer with the appropriate units.

102.5 N

Explanation:

The impulse theorem applied to this situation states that:

where

F is the average force applied on the child and the sled

is the time interval during which the force is applied

The term on the right represents the variation of momentum, which is the product of:

m is the mass of the child+sled

is the change in velocity of the child+sled

In this situation we have:

m = 41 kg

So we can solve to find the average force:

And the negative sign means the force is applied against the direction of motion of the child. So the magnitude of the force is 102.5 N.

d.7.5cm is your answer

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.
