Acceleration, Impulse, and Momentum

Problem: In ancient egypt, multiple builders pulls large blocks made from limestone and granite to build pyramids for their Pharoah. Each block weighs around 2300 kg in average. In average, a man with a well-built body may pull with a force of 251 N.

What formula would you use to determine the acceleration of a single block?

PROBLEM: In ancient egypt, multiple builders pulls large blocks made from limestone and granite to build pyramids for their Pharoah. The block the men were pulling was about to hit a marble table with a mass of 1150 kg in 82 seconds with a speed of 12.5 m/s.

QUESTION: What is the speed of the table after collision?

• 25 m/s

• 0.04 m/s

• 12.5 m/s

• 14375 m/s

PROBLEM: In ancient egypt, multiple builders pulls large blocks made from limestone and granite to build pyramids for their Pharoah. The block the men were pulling was about to hit a marble table with a mass of 1150 kg in 82 seconds with a speed of 12.5 m/s.

QUESTION: Given the impulse you have solved from the previous question, how much force was excerted by the block to the table?

• 175.30 N

• 2.13 N
