Answer:
Explanation:
Law of conservation of momentum is applied in solving collision problem. When two body collides, their momentum after collision can be determined using the law.
The law States that the sum of momentum of two bodies before collision is equal to the sum of their momentum after collision. Before collision, both bodies moves with a different velocity while during some cases, the bodies moves with a common velocity after collision.
Whether they move with or without the same velocity depends on the type of collision that exists between them after the collision. After collision, some object sticks together and move with a common velocity while some doesn't.
If the bodies sticks together after collision, the type of collision that occur is inelastic (energy is not conserved) and if they splits after collision, the type of collision that occur is an elastic collision (energy is conserved).
Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies
u1 and u2 be their velocities before collision
v1 and v2 be their velocities after collision.
According to the law;
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
Note that momentum = mass × velocity of the body.
Answer: The correct option is A ( horizontally towards the east)
Explanation:
Magnetic field is a region around a magnet or a current- carrying conductor, where a magnetic force is experienced. The magnetic effect of electric current was first discovered in the early 1820 by Oersted. Using a wire that had current flowing through it and a pivoted magnetic needle, he discovered that the direction of deflection depended on the direction of the current and whether the wire was above or below the needle.
From the way the needle turns when current when current carrying wire is held parallel to it, he therefore concluded that:
--> a current has magnetic field all round it,
--> the magnetic field is in a direction perpendicular to the current.
The above discovery was now modified in Fleming's left hand rule which states that when conductor carrying current is placed in a magnetic field, the conductor will experience a force perpendicular to both the field and the flow of current.
Therefore from the question, a vertical wire carrying current in DOWNWARD direction is placed in a HORIZONTAL magnetic field directed to the NORTH. The direction of the force on the wire is to the EAST.
Explanation:
1. Mass of an object
2. Distance between the objects
When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.
Now, given that:
- the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
- after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h
Assumptions:
- Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
- That the car's acceleration is also constant.
∴
For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:
where;
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
s = distance
From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:
The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.
since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s
100 km/h = 27.78 m/s
a = - 385.86 m/s²
Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;
v = u + at
where;
v = 0
-u = at
t = 0.07 seconds
An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.
Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

Answer:
Because the electricity flows through and creates static bonds around the metal case which creates a bond with other fields that protects it.
