A 1250 kg car, driving 7.39 m/s, runs into the back of a stationary 5380 kg truck. After the collision, the truck moves forward

at 2.30 m/s. What is the final velocity of the car?

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m₁ = 1250 kg

Initial speed of the car, u₁ = 7.39 m/s

Mass of the truck, m₂ = 5380 kg

It is stationary, u₂ = 0

Final speed of the truck, v₂ = 2.3 m/s

Let v₁ is the final velocity of the car. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

1250\times 7.39+5380\times 0=1250\times v_1+5380\times 2.3

v_1=-2.5\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the car is 2.5 m/s but in opposite direction. Hence, this is the required solution.

Electric field lines always begin at _______ charges (or at infinity) and end at _______ charges (or at infinity). One could als
lesantik [10]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

By convention, the electric field lines (which are tangent to the direction of the electric field at a given point) always begin at positive charges, and finish at negative charges.

This is a consequence of the convention that states that the electric field has the direction of the trajectory of a positive test charge when released from rest in an electric field.

(As the positive charge would move away from positive charges and would  be attracted by negative ones).

So, the combination of answers that is true is b) (positive, negative, positive).

CClassify each characteristic of sound waves.
Alex787 [66]

Explanation : Explain each characteristic of sound waves.

Intensity : the intensity of the sound wave is understand as the power carry by sound wave per unit area in the direction perpendicular to that area.

Loudness :  loudness is the quality of the loud and soft of the sound wave.

Frequency : Human normal hear sound frequency between 20 Hz to kHz.

Pitch : Pitch is the quality of low and high of sound wave . pitch relates to the frequency of the slowest vibration in the sound wave for simple sound.

A small 12.00 g plastic ball is suspended by a string in a uniform, horizontal electric field. If the ball is in equilibrium whe
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Explanation:

As we know that plastic ball is suspended by a string which makes 30 degree angle with the vertical

So here force due to electrostatic force on the charged ball is in horizontal direction along the direction of electric field

while weight of the ball is vertically downwards

so here we have

QE = F_x

mg = F_y

since string makes 30 degree angle with the vertical so we will have

tan\theta = \frac{F_x}{F_y}

tan30 = \frac{QE}{mg}

Q = \frac{mg}{E}tan30

Q = \frac{0.012\times 9.81}{E} tan30

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity
