Impulse & Momentum Conservation

Sand is being dropped on a conveyer belt at the rate of M kg/s. The force necessary to keep the belt moving with a constant velocity of vv m/s will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Sand must be given speed vv, so F=vdmdtF = v\frac{dm}{dt}.
  2. F=v×M=MvF = v \times M = Mv
  3. So the answer is (c) MvMv newton.
