On an air track, a 4-kg cart moving at 3 m/s collides with a 2-kg cart that is
initially at rest. If the two carts stick together, what will be their velocity
after the collision? Show all calculations, including any equation(s) used,
and include correct measurement units. *
Your answer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v₃ = 2 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve such problems we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. That is, the linear momentum is conserved before and after the collision.

P = m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

The momentum is conserved before and after the collision, in this way we can obtain the following equation.

[tex](m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}[/tex]

where:

m₁ = mass of the cart moving = 4 [kg]

v₁ =  velocity of the cart moving before the collision = 3 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the cart initially at rest = 2 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the cart at rest = 0

v₃ = velocity of the two carts combined (carts stick together) after the collision [m/s]

[tex](4*3)+(2*0)=(4+2)*v_{3}\\v_{3}=12/6\\v_{3}=2[m/s][/tex]

A thermal cap used in certain apparatus consist of silica rod which fits tightly inside an aluminium tube whose internal diameter is 8mm at 0 degree c … elcius.Calculate what change in temperature to produce channel whose cross section equal to 1 mm

Answers

Answer:

change in temperature is a decrease by 268.734 K

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature: T1 = 0°C = 273 K

Internal diameter; d1 = 8mm

Final diameter; d2 = 1 mm

To solve this, we will use Charles law formula since pressure is constant.

Thus;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where T2 is the final temperature.

Now, V1 and V2 are volume

Volume is given by: V = area x height

We are told the cross section is equal except for the diameter.

Thus;

V1 = A1 × h

V2 = A2 × h

Thus;

(A1 × h)/T1 = (A2 × h)/T2

h will cancel out and making T2 the subject, we have;

T2 = (A2 × T1)/A1

A2 = π(d2)²/4

A1 = π(d1)²/4

Thus;

T2 = [(π(d2)²/4) × T1]/(π(d1)²/4)

π and 4 will cancel out to givw;

T2 = ((d2)²× T1)/(d1)²

T2 = (1² × 273)/8²

T2 = 273/64

T2 = 4.266 K

Thus;

Change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 4.266 - 273 = -268.734 K

Thus, change in temperature is a decrease by 268.734 K

Answers

None of these answers are correct...

Applying the law of universal gravitation, we have

F = G m₁ m₂ / R²

where

G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N•m²/kg²

m₁ = 1.7 × 10³⁰ kg

m₂ = 5.5 × 10²⁰ kg

R = 2 × 10⁵ m

→   F = (6.67 × 1.7 × 5.5)/2² × 10⁻¹¹⁺³⁰⁺²⁰⁻¹⁰ N

→   F ≈ 15.59 × 10²⁹ N

→   F ≈ 1.6 × 10³⁰ N

a projectile is fixed from ground level with a velocity 500m/s at 30 degree to the horizontal .find its horizontal range, the greatest height and time to reach the greatest height.​

Answers

Answer:

1. 22092.31 m

2. 3188.78 m

3. 25.51 s

Explanation:

Let's split this projectile's motion into its horizontal and vertical components:

Horizontal (v_x) component: 500 * cos(30)Vertical (v_y) component: 500 * sin(30)

Since this projectile is in constant acceleration (9.8 m/s² vertically downwards and 0 m/s² horizontally), we can use the kinematic equations for constant acceleration.

Let's find the time it takes for the projectile to reach its greatest height first by using our knowledge that, at the top of its trajectory, the projectile will have a final velocity of 0 m/s before changing its direction and falling down.

Therefore, we can use the equation that contains the variables a_y, v_f, v_i, and t in order to solve for time t.

This equation is: v = v_0 + at, where v is the final velocity, v_0 is the vertical component of the initial velocity, a is the acceleration in the y-direction, and t is the time of flight of the projectile.

Plug known values into the equation:

0 = 500 * sin(30) + (-9.8)t

Subtract 500 * sin(30) from both sides of the equation.

-500 * sin(30) = -9.8t

Divide both sides by -9.8.

t = 25.51

The time it takes the projectile to reach its greatest height is 25.51 seconds.

Now we can use this time t to find the greatest height of the object, which will be the displacement in the y-direction at t = 25.51 seconds.

We can use this equation that contains the variables displacement (Δx), initial velocity (v_0), acceleration (a_y), and time (t):

Δx = v_0 t + 1/2at²

Plug known values into the equation.

Δx = [500 * sin(30)] * 25.51 + 1/2(-9.8)(25.51)² Δx = 6377.5 + -4.9 * 650.7601 Δx =  6377.5 + -3188.72449  Δx = 3188.77551

The displacement in the y-direction is 3188.78 m at half the time t, meaning that this is the greatest height of the projectile.

Now we can find the horizontal range of the projectile by using the same equation, but this time in the x-direction.

Δx = v_0 t + 1/2at²  

We will use the x-component of the initial velocity and the acceleration in the x-direction, which is always 0 m/s² assuming air resistance is negligible. Note that the time we have above (25.51 sec) is only half the total time, so we will use double this time (51.02 sec).

Δx = [500 * cos(30)] * 51.02Δx = 22092.31

The horizontal range of the projectile is 22092.31 m.

I understand that sound travels faster in water then in air. Water is a liquid, and air is gas.

Water still has the ability to roll the molecules over each other (so water can flow), it has some flexibility.

But I do not understand how a solid that is inflexible can make sound waves travel faster then in a flexible liquid.

In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.

Sound waves travel over four times faster in water than it would in air.

Marc was told his dinner would be ready at 18:00. He left his house at 12:00 and travelled in his car at an average speed of 45mph to his mum's house 300 miles away. Did Marc make it home in time for dinner

Answers

Answer:

No

Explanation:

No, Marc did not make it on time for dinner.

The time duration between 12:00 and 18:00 is 6 hours.

Total distance that needs to be covered from his house to his mum's house and back = 300 miles x 2 = 600 miles

Time that would be needed to cover 600 miles to his mum's house at an average speed of 45 mph = distance/speed

    = 600/45

            = 13.33 hours

The required time to cover the distance by Marc is approximately 13.33 hours. If he leaves the house by 12:00, he will definitely not get back 6 hours after. Hence, he could not have made it for dinner.

Answers

Answer:newtons second law

Explanation:

To get something to accelerate you have to apply a pull force . if the mass increase a grater pull is required

The law that explains the fact that a heavier truck takes a longer time to stop is Newton's law of inertia.

According to Newtons first law of motion also called the law of inertia, a body will continue in a state of rest or uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an external, unbalanced force.

This law explains the reluctance of heavier objects to move or stop. The law that explains the fact that a heavier truck takes a longer time to stop is Newton's law of inertia.

Answers

Answer:

From highest speed to lowest speed:

A, C, B

Explanation:

On a position time graph, the slope of a line would represent the velocity, since the rate of change represents how many meters traveled in the given time.

The larger the slope, the faster the velocity; the steeper the line, the faster the speed.

Since line B is negative, you know that velocity is negative so it automatically has the lowest speed.

Out of lines A and C, since A is steeper, you know that A has a faster speed.

In conclusion:

A is the fastest

C is the middle

B is the slowest

A string attached to an airborne balloon was maintained at an angle of 54 degrees with the ground. If 2.3 m of string was reeled in to return the balloon back to the ground, what was the horizontal and vertical displacements

Answers

Answer:

dₓ = 1.35 m

dy = 1.86 m

Explanation:

In order to find the vertical and horizontal components of the displacement, we can assume a right triangle. Such that, the length of string is the hypotenuse, making and angle of 54° with the base of triangle. The base is the horizontal component of displacement. And the perpendicular is the vertical component of displacement. Therefore:

[tex]d_{x} = d\ Cos\ \theta[/tex]

where,

dₓ = horizontal component of displacement = ?

d = resultant displacement = 2.3 m

θ = angle between displacement and ground = 54°

Therefore,

[tex]d_{x} = (2.3\ m)\ Cos\ 54^0[/tex]

dₓ = 1.35 m

For vertical component of displacement:

A bicyclist initially at rest, begins pedaling and gained speed steadily for 4.80s during which she covers 37.0m What was her final speed?

Answers

Answer:

The final speed of the bicyclist is 15.44 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 0

time of motion, t = 4.8 s

distance covered, d = 37.0 m

The acceleration of the bicyclist is calculated as;

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

37 = 0 + ¹/₂(4.8)²a

37 = 11.52a

a = 37 / 11.5

a = 3.22 m/s²

The final speed of the bicyclist is given as;

v² = u² + 2ad

v² = 0 + 2(3.22)(37)

v² = 238.28

v = √238.28

v = 15.44 m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the bicyclist is 15.44 m/s.
