Jacques and Georgette meet in the middle of a lake while paddling in their canoes. They come to a complete stop and talk for a w

hile. When they are ready to leave, Jacques pushes Georgette's canoe with a force F to separate the two canoes. What is correct to say about the final momentum and kinetic energy of the system if we can neglect any resistance due to the water

Answer:

The correct answer is the final momentum is zero but the final kinetic energy is positive.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The momentum is zero because momentum is the sum of the mass * velocity for each component. momentum is conserved

The Kinetic energy (KE) is positive because kinetic energy is the total of the 1/2 *mass * velocity^2.

Whereas the velocity can be positive and negative since it is directed (this is what makes the momentum zero because on is positive and one is negative), the velocity squared will always be positive.

Thus adding together two positives will always be a positive number.

A piece of copper wire with thin insulation, 200 m long and 1.00 mm in diameter, is wound onto a plastic tube to form a long sol
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

 N= 3

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Faraday's law

          E = - dФ / dt

         Ф = B . A = B Acos θ

tje bold indicate vectors. As it indicates that the variation of the field is linear, we can approximate the derivatives

         E = - A cos θ (B - B₀) / t

The angle enters the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         cos 0 = 1

         A = π r²

   

In the length of the wire there are N turns each with a length L₀ = 2π r

          L = N (2π r)

          r = L / 2π N

    we substitute

          A = L² / (4π N²)

The magnetic field produced by a solenoid is

           B = μ₀ N/L   I

for which

            B₀ = μ₀  N/L   I

           

The final field is zero, because the current is zero

            B = 0

We substitute

           E = - (L² / 4π N²)  (0 - μ₀ N/L I) / t

           E = μ₀ L I / (4π N t)

           N = μ₀ L I / (4π t E)

The electromotive force is E = 0.80 mV = 0.8 10⁻³ V

let's calculate

           N = 4π 10⁻⁷ 200 1.60 / (4π 0.120 0.8 10⁻³)]

           N  = 320 10⁻⁷ / 9.6 10⁻⁶

           N = 33.3 10⁻¹

          N= 3

Q2. You push a crate up a ramp with a force of 10 N. Despite your pushing, the crate slides down the ramp 4 m. How much work did
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Work done is simply defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, we can express the Workdone as:

Workdone = force × distance

Wd = F × s

With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Wd = F × s

Wd = 10 × 4

Wd = 40 J

Thus, 40 J of work was done.

Betty (mass 40 kg), standing on slippery ice, catches her leaping dog (mass 15 kg) moving horizontally at 3.0 m/s. Show that the
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

v = 2.18m/s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of Betty and her dog you take into account the law of momentum conservation. The total momentum before Betty catches her dog must be equal to the total momentum after.

Then you have:

Mv_{1o}+mv_{2o}=(M+m)v        (1)

M: mass Betty = 40kg

m: mass of the dog = 15kg

v1o: initial speed of Betty = 3.0m/s

v2o: initial speed of the dog = 0 m/s

v: speed of both Betty and her dog = ?

You solve the equation (1) for v:

v=\frac{Mv_{1o}+mv_{2o}}{M+m}=\frac{(40kg)(3.0m/s)+(15kg)(0m/s)}{40kg+15kg}\\\\v=2.18m/s

The speed fo both Betty and her dog is 2.18m/s
