Answer:
The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the first cart, m₁ = 2 kg
initial speed of the first car, u₁ = 3 m/s
mass of the second cart, m₂ = 4 kg
initial speed of the second cart, u₂ = 0
Let the final speed of both carts = v, since they stick together after collision.
Apply the principle of conservation of momentum to determine v
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
2 x 3 + 0 = v(2 + 4)
6 = 6v
v = 1 m/s
Impulse is given by;
I = ft = mΔv = m(
The impulse exerted by the first cart on the second cart is given;
I = 2 (3 -1 )
I = 4 N.s
The impulse exerted by the second cart on the first cart is given;
I = 4(0-1)
I = - 4 N.s (equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the impulse exerted by the first).
Therefore, the impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
The question is poor. Light doesn't refract on its way THROUGH anything. It refracts at the boundary BETWEEN two different media. The effect is greatest where the ratio of the speeds of light in the two media is greatest. On your list, that would be at the boundary between air or space and glass.
It must be a virtual image, because this is the only kind of image it can produce.
