5 0

<span>A substance that accelerates the rate of chemical reaction is called a catalyst. It serves as an alternative pathway for the reaction product. The increase of rate of chemical reaction is because catalyst has low activiation energy than the original pathway. The low activation energy will increase the amount of molecules that can benefit in the energy created by the catalyst.</span>

A girl stands on the edge of a merry-go-round of radius 1.71 m. If the merry go round uniformly accerlerates from rest to 20 rpm

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

Explanation:

initially the merry go round is at rest

after 6.73 s the merry go round will accelerates to 20 rpm

so final angular speed is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi ( \frac{20}{60})$

$\omega = 2.10 rad/s$

so final tangential speed is given as

$v = r\omega$

$v = 1.71 (2.10) = 3.58 m/s$

now average acceleration of the girl is given as

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}$

$a = \frac{3.58 - 0}{6.73}$

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

Cart a having a mass of 150 kg initially moving to the right at a speed of 8 m/s collides with cart b with a mass of 150 kg, ini

kakasveta [241]

The speed of cart b is 6m/s while the total momentum of the systmen is 4200 kg m/s

<h3>Conservation of Linear Momentum</h3>

Given Data

Mass of cart one M1 = 150kg

Initial Velocity U1 = 8m/s

Final VelocityV1 = 5 m/s

Mass of cart two M2 = 150kg

Velocity U2 = 6m/s

Applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum we have

M1U1+M2U2 = M1V1+ M2V2

a. what is the speed of cart b after collision

substituting our given data we have

150*8+ 150*6 = 150*5+150*V2

1200 + 900 = 1200+ 150V2

2100 - 1200 = 150V2

900 = 150V2

Divide both sides by 150

V2 = 900/150

V2 = 6m/s

b. what is the total momentum of the system before and after collision

Total Momentum in the system is

Total momentum = Momentum before Impact+ Momentum after Impact

Total momentum = M1U1+M2U2 + M1V1+ M2V2

Total momentum = 1200 + 900 + 1200+ 900

Total momentum = 4200 kg m/s

A bus slows with constant acceleration from 24.0 m/s to 16.0 m/s and moves 50.0 m in the process. (a) How much further does it t

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(a) Bus will traveled further a distance of 40 m

(b) It will take 7.5 sec to stop the bus

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity of the bus u = 24 m/sec

And final velocity v = 16 m/sec

Distance traveled in this process s = 50 m

From third equation of motion we know that $v^2=u^2+2as$

$16^2=24^2+2\times a\times 50$

$a=-3.2m/sec^2$

(a) Now as the bus finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

So $v^2=u^2+2as$

$0^2=24^2-2\times 3.2\times s$

s= 90 m

So further distance traveled by bus = 90-50 =40 m

(b) Now as the bus finally stops so final velocity v= 0 m/sec

Initial velocity u = 24 m/sec

Acceleration $a=-3.2m/sec^2$

So time $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-24}{-3.2}=7.5sec$
