A 7.0-kilogram cart, A, and a 3.0-kilogram cart, B, are initially held together at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. W

hen a compressed spring attached to one of the carts is released, the carts are pushed apart. After the spring is released, the speed of cart B is 6.0 meters per second, as represented in the diagram belowWhat is the speed of cart A after the spring is released?

For this problem, we use the conservation of momentum as a solution. Since momentum is mass times velocity, then,

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'
where
v₁ and v₂ are initial velocities of cart A and B, respectively
v₁' and v₂' are final velocities of cart A and B, respectively
m₁ and m₂ are masses of cart A and B, respectively

(7 kg)(0 m/s) + (3 kg)(0 m/s) = (7 kg)(v₁') + (3 kg)(6 m/s)
Solving for v₁',
v₁' = -2.57 m/s

<em>Therefore, the speed of cart A is at 2.57 m/s at the direction opposite of cart B.</em>

If a battery causes a wire to carry a current of 4 Amps how many coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds
BabaBlast [244]

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪  {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪

According to above question ~

  • Current (I) = 4 Amperes

  • Time (t) = 3 seconds

  • Charge (q) = ?

Let's find the charge (q) by using formula ~

  • I =  \dfrac{q}{t}

  • 4 =  \dfrac{q}{3}

  • q = 4 \times 3

  • q = 12 \:  \: coulombs

Hence, 12 coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds

what would the mass be of an object that was moving at a velocity of 35 m/s and has a kinetic energy of 500j be?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

0.816 kg

Explanation:

E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\

so m=\frac{2E_k}{v^2}=\frac{2\times500}{35^2}=0.816 kg
