The equation
(option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.
The horizontal momentum is given by:


Where:
- m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg
- m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg
: is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)
: is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>
Then, the horizontal momentum is:

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

Therefore, the equation
represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

Answer:
The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134
Explanation:
Given that:
M = mass of person = 52 kg
m = mass of sled = 15.2 kg
U = initial velocity of person = 3.63 m/s
u = initial velocity of sled = 0 m/s
After collision, the person and the sled would move with the same velocity V.
a) According to law of momentum conservation:
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
MU + mu = (M + m)V

Substituting values:

The velocity of the sled and person as they move away is 2.81 m/s
b) acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
d = 30 m
Using the formula:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134
A) We differentiate the expression for velocity to obtain an expression for acceleration:
v(t) = 1 - sin(2πt)
dv/dt = -2πcos(2πt)
a = -2πcos(2πt)
b) Any value of t can be plugged in as long as it is greater than or equal to 0.
c) we integrate the expression of velocity to find an expression for displacement:
∫v(t) dt = ∫ 1 - sin(2πt) dt
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π + c
x(0) = 0
0 = = + cos(0)/2π + c
c = -1/2π
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π -1/2π
Answer:
128.21 m
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Initial temperature (θ₁) = 4 °C
Final temperature (θ₂) = 43 °C
Change in length (ΔL) = 8.5 cm
Coefficient of linear expansion (α) = 17×10¯⁶ K¯¹)
Original length (L₁) =.?
The original length can be obtained as follow:
α = ΔL / L₁(θ₂ – θ₁)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(43 – 4)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(39)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / 39L₁
Cross multiply
17×10¯⁶ × 39L₁ = 8.5
6.63×10¯⁴ L₁ = 8.5
Divide both side by 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 8.5 / 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 12820.51 cm
Finally, we shall convert 12820.51 cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:
100 cm = 1 m
Therefore,
12820.51 cm = 12820.51 cm × 1 m / 100 cm
12820.51 cm = 128.21 m
Thus, the original length of the wire is 128.21 m
