I believe the answer you are looking for is the friction of the tires on the race track

The force being provided the car more specifically would be the torque of each individual tire multiplied by some friction coefficient between the tire and the concrete multiplied by 4 since there are 4 tires.

A proton that has a mass m and is moving at 270 m/s in the i hat direction undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a stationa

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$V_p = 267.258 m/s$

$V_n = 38.375 m/s$

Explanation:

using the law of the conservation of the linear momentum:

$P_i = P_f$

where $P_i$ is the inicial momemtum and $P_f$ is the final momentum

the linear momentum is calculated by the next equation

P = MV

where M is the mass and V is the velocity.

so:

$P_i = m(270 m/s)$

$P_f = mV_P + M_nV_n$

where m is the mass of the proton and $V_p$ is the velocity of the proton after the collision, $M_n$ is the mass of the nucleus and $V_n$ is the velocity of the nucleus after the collision.

therefore, we can formulate the following equation:

m(270 m/s) = m $V_p$ + 14m $V_n$

then, m is cancelated and we have:

270 = $V_p$ + $14V_n$

This is a elastic collision, so the kinetic energy K is conservated. Then:

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}MV^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(270)^2$

and

Kf = $\frac{1}{2}mV_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14m)V_n^2$

then,

$\frac{1}{2}m(270)^2$ = $\frac{1}{2}mV_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14m)V_n^2$

here we can cancel the m and get:

$\frac{1}{2}(270)^2$ = $\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2$

now, we have two equations and two incognites:

270 = $V_p$ + $14V_n$ (eq. 1)

$\frac{1}{2}(270)^2$ = $\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2$

in the second equation, we have:

36450 = $\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2$ (eq. 2)

from this last equation we solve for $V_n$ as:

$V_n = \sqrt{\frac{36450-\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 }{\frac{1}{2} } }$

and replace in the other equation as:

270 = $V_p +$ 14 $\sqrt{\frac{36450-\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 }{\frac{1}{2} } }$

so,

$V_p = -267.258 m/s$

Vp is negative because the proton go in the -i hat direction.

Finally, replacing this value on eq. 1 we get:

$V_n = \frac{270+267.258}{14}$

$V_n = 38.375 m/s$

Which of the following terms is given to a pair of stars that appear to change position in the sky, indicating that they are orb

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A

The binary star system is the system in which two stars are continuously orbiting each other,

In the eclipsing binary system, two stars revolve about there center of mass and in this system one one-star eclipse another star.

Spectroscopic binary stars are found from the observation of radial velocity and the brighter member of such binary can be seen to have continuously changed the wavelength and periodic velocity.

When the pairs of stars appear to change position in the sky then it is known as visual binary.

A 750 g air-track glider attached to a spring with spring constant 14.0 N/m is sitting at rest on a frictionless air track. A 20

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations is 0.11 m

the period of the subsequent oscillations is 1.94 s

Explanation:

given Information:

the mass of air-track glider, $m_{1}$ = 750 g = 0.75 kg

spring constant, k = 13.0 N/m

the mass of glider, $m_{2}$ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

the speed of glider, $v_{2}$ = 170 cm/s = 1.7 m/s

the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations is A = 0.11 m

according to mechanical enery equation, we have

$A = \sqrt{\frac{m_{1} +m_{2} }{k} }v_{f}$

where

A is the amplitude and $v_{f}$ is the final speed.

to find $v_{f}$ , we can use momentum conservation lwa, where the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum.

$P_{f} = P_{i}$

$(m_{1} +m_{2} )v_{f} = m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2}v_{2}$

$v_{1}$ = 0, thus

(0.75+0.2) $v_{f}$ = (0.75)(0)+(0.2)(1.7)

0.95 $v_{f}$ = 0.34

$v_{f}$ = 0.36 m/s

Now we can calculate the amplitude

$A = \sqrt{\frac{0.75 +0.2 }{10} }0.36$

A = 0.11 m

the period of the subsequent oscillations is T = 1.94 s

the equation for period is

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{m_{1}+m_{2} }{k} }$

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{0.75+0.2 }{10} }$

T = 1.94 s
