In a closed system, the loss of momentum of one object is same as________ the gain in momentum of another object

according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum before and after collision in a closed system in absence of any net external force, remains conserved . that is

total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

P₁ + P₂ = P'₁ + P'₂

where P₁ and P₂ are momentum before collision for object 1 and object 2 respectively.

P'₁ - P₁ = - (P'₂ - P₂)

so clearly gain in momentum of one object is same as the loss of momentum of other object

A amusement park moves riders in a circle at a rate of 6.0m/s if the radius is 9.0 meters what is the acceleration of the ride

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Centripetal acceleration is (speed-squared) / (radius)

CA = (6 m/s)² / (9 m)

CA = (36 m²/s²) / (9 m)

CA = (36/9) (m²/m·s²)

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

In which direction is the magnetic force acting on the charge? into the screen out of the screen up down

Harrizon [31]

The direction in which the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards.

<h3>What is Magnetic force?</h3>

This is the attraction and repulsion which usually occurs during the motion of electrically charged particles.

In the magnetic field, the charge is moving to the left. Therefore the direction the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards which is gotten via right hand rule.

An object is pulled to the left by a force of 50 N. The same amount of force pulls it to the right. The object will ____.

11111nata11111 [884]

<h2><u>Required</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h2>

The body will <u>stay at rest </u>(Option D). It is because a force of magnitude 50 N is pulled towards left and another force is pulling it towards right with same magnitude 50 N. So, the direction of force is opposite and magnitude is same i.e. 50 N. So, they will cancel each other and net force is 0. Hence, there would be no acceleration.

Option A - Showing acceleration
Option B - Showing acceleration
Option C - Change of direction due to Net force

Hence, these options are incorrect because they are only possible when net external force is non-zero. Staying at rest i.e. Option D means there is no motion and hence no acceleration, this shows that net force is 0 $.$
