(a) The spring stiffness constant of the spring is 18,392 N/m.
(b) The time the car was in contact with the spring before it bounces off in the opposite direction is 0.23 s.
<h3>Kinetic energy of the car</h3>
The kinetic energy of the car is calculated as follows;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
K.E = ¹/₂ x 950 x 22²
K.E = 229,900 J
<h3>Stiffness constant of the spring</h3>
The stiffness constant of the spring is calculated as follows;
K.E = U = ¹/₂kx²
k = 2U/x²
k = (2 x 229,900)/(5)²
k = 18,392 N/m
<h3>Force exerted on the spring</h3>
F = kx
F = 18,392 x 5
F = 91,960 N
<h3>Time of impact</h3>
F = mv/t
t = mv/F
t = (950 x 22)/(91960)
t = 0.23 s

Explanation:
Given that,
Linear speed of both disks is 5 m/s
Mass of disk 1 is 10 kg
Radius of disk 1 is 35 cm or 0.35 m
Mass of disk 2 is 3 kg
Radius of disk 2 is 7 cm or 0.07 m
(a) The angular velocity of disk 1 is :

(b) The angular velocity of disk 2 is :

(c) The moment of inertia for the two disk system is given by :

Hence, this is the required solution.
Explanation:
The magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is given by :

or

Where
is the angle between length and the magnetic field
The magnetic force is perpendicular to both current and magnetic field. It is maximum when it is perpendicular to both current and magnetic field.
So, the correct options are :
- The magnetic force on the current-carrying wire is strongest when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.
- .The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the field.
- The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current.
