Peter throws a snowball at his car parked in the driveway. The snowball disintegrates as it hits the car. By Newton’s third law,

you know that both the car and the snowball exert a force on each other. What can you say about the magnitude of the forces exerted by the snowball and the car?

Well, they are equal and opposite, but the force is high enough to break up the snowball.  That is where the energy is dissipated.

A 120-V rms voltage at 60.0 Hz is applied across an inductor, a capacitor, and a resistor in series. If the rms value of the cur
klemol [59]

Answer:

The impedance of this circuit is 200 ohm.

Explanation:

Given that,

rms voltage = 120 v

Frequency = 60.0 Hz

rms current = 0.600 A

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

Z=\dfrac{V_{rms}}{I_{rms}}

Where, V_{rms} = rms voltage

I_{rms} = rms current

Z= impedance

Put the value into the formula

Z=\dfrac{120}{0.600}

Z=200\ Omega

Hence, The impedance of this circuit is 200 ohm.

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast
kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 is the mass of the first mosquito

u_1 = 0 is the initial velocity of the mosquito

m_2 = 50 m_1 is the mass of the raindrop

u_2 = 8.4 m/s is the initial velocity of the raindrop

v is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:  

m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s

A charge q1= 3nC and a charge q2 = 4nC are located 2m apart. Where on the line passing through these charges is the total electr
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field due to a charge Q at a point d distance away is given by the expression

E = k Q / d , k is a constant equal to 9 x 10⁹

Field due to charge = 3 X 10⁻⁹ C

E = E = \frac{9\times 10^9\times3\times10^{-9}}{d^2}

Field due to charge = 4 X 10⁻⁹ C

E = [tex]\frac{9\times 10^9\times4\times10^{-9}}{(2-d)^2}

These two fields will be equal and opposite to make net field zero

\frac{9\times 10^9\times3\times10^{-9}}{d^2} = [tex]\frac{9\times 10^9\times4\times10^{-9}}{(2-d)^2}[/tex]

\frac{3}{d^2} =\frac{4}{(2-d)^2}

\frac{2-d}{d} =\frac{2}{1.732}

d = 0.928

A car starts from rest with an acceleration of 5 ft/s. What is its velocity after it has gone 600 ft?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

First, let’s correct the question. Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. Its unit therefore is ft/sec/sec. If S is the distance traveled for a given duration, S = Vot + (1/2)at^2 where Vo is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time. For Vo = 0, a = 6m/sec/sec and t = 3 sec. The distance traveled is S = 0 + (1/2) x 6 x 3^2 = 27 meters
