The Millersburg Ferry (m = 13000.0 kg loaded) is travelling at 11 m/s when the engines are put in reverse. The engineproduces a

force of 1.0 x 106N for a period of 20.0 seconds.
a)What is the magnitude of the impulse from the engine?

b)What is the new momentum of the ferry?c)What is the new velocity of the ferry?

Answer:

(a) Impulse of the engine = 20*10^6 N.s

(b) New momentum of the ferry =  1985700 kgm/s

(c) The new velocity of the ferry = 1527.5 m/s

Explanation:

In the given problem, we have:

mass (m) = 13000 kg; velocity (v) = 11 m/s; Force (F) = 1.0*10^6 N; period (t) = 20 s.

From the Newton's law of motion, it is know that:

force*time = mass*velocity; and impulse = force*time

Thus:

(a) the magnitude of the impulse from the engine is:

Impulse = 1.0*10^6 * 20 = 20*10^6 N.s

(b) The new momentum of the ferry is equivalent to the difference between the engine momentum and the ferry momentum. Therefore, we have:

New momentum = Engine momentum - Ferry momentum

Ferry momentum = mass*velocity = 13000*11 =143000 kgm/s

Engine momentum = 1.0*10^6 * 20 = 20*10^6 N.s = 20*10^6 (kgm/s^2 *s) = 20*10^6 kgm/s

Therefore:

New momentum = 20*10^6 - 143000 =  1985700 kgm/s

(c) The new velocity of the ferry is:

v = new momentum/mass = 1985700/13000 = 1527.5 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Millersburg Ferry, m = 13000 kg

Velocity, v = 11 m/s

Applied force, F = 10⁶ N

Time period, t = 20 seconds

(a) Impulse is given by the product of force and time taken i.e.

J=F.\Delta t

J=10^6\ N\times 20\ s

J=2\times 10^7\ N-s

(b) Impulse is also given by the change in momentum i.e.

J=\Delta p=p_f-p_i

J=p_f-p_i

p_f=J+p_i

p_f=2\times 10^7\ N-s+13000\ kg\times 11\ m/s

p_f=20143000\ kg-m/s

(c) For new velocity,

v_f=\dfrac{p_f}{m}

v_f=\dfrac{20143000\ kg-m/s}{13000\ kg}

v_f=1549.46\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

The strengthcompassion field is proportional to the closeness of the field lines—more precisely, it is proportional to the number of lines per unit area perpendicular to the lines. The direction of the electric field is tangent to the field line at any point in space. Field lines can never cross. These pattern of lines, sometimes referred to as electric field lines, point in the direction that a positive test charge would accelerate if placed upon the line. As such, the lines are directed away from positively charged source charges and toward negatively charged source charges.

Rules for drawing electric field lines

1. Electric field lines are always drawn from High potential to

low potential.

2. Two electric field lines can never intersect each other.

3. The net electric field inside a Conductor is Zero.

4. Electric field line from a positive charge is drawn radially outwards and from a negative charge radially inwards.

5. The density of electric field lines tells the strength of the electric field at that region.

6. Electric field lines terminate Perpendicularly to the surface of a conductor.

A vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. You can tell if a quantity is a vector by whether or not it has a direction associated with it.

So, electric fields are vector quantity due to the fact any student can tell you that a compass is used to determine which direction is north.

Since the compass always point northward, then it has a direction and magnitude and so it is a vector quantity
