Answer:

Explanation:

Give that,

Mass of object

Ma = 40kg

Mb = 35kg

Velocity of mass A Va = 50m/s

Velocity of mass B Vb = 30m/s

Since after collision the two bodies stick together(inelastic collision), then, they will have a common velocity

Let assume common velocity V

So using conservation of linear momentum

Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision

P(before) = P(after)

Note P = mV and momentum is a vector quantity

So we assume, that the small mass is moving in the negative direction

P(before) = P(after)

Ma•Va —Mb•Vb = (Ma+Mb)V

40×50—35×30 = (40+35)V

950 = 75V

Then, V = 950/75

V = 12.67 m/s

The common velocity is 12.67 m/s

A parallel-plate capacitor has a plate area of 0.2m^2 and a plate separation of 0.1mm. To obtain an electric field of 2.0 × 10^6
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

3.536*10^-6 C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the charge is expresses as Q = CV

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

V is the voltage across the capacitor

Get the capacitance

C = ε0A/d

ε0 is the permittivity of the dielectric = 8.84 x 10-12 F/m

A is the area = 0.2m²

d is the plate separation = 0.1mm = 0.0001m

Substitute

C = 8.84 x 10-12 * 0.2/0.0001

C = 1.768 x 10-8 F

Get the potential difference V

Using the formula for Electric field intensity

E = V/d

2.0 × 10^6  = V/0.0001

V = 2.0 × 10^6  * 0.0001

V = 2.0 × 10^2V

Get the charge on each plate.

Q = CV

Q =  1.768 x 10-8 * 2.0 × 10^2

Q = 3.536*10^-6 C

Hence the magnitude of the charge on each plate should be 3.536*10^-6 C

Two states of matter are described below. State A: Cannot be compressed and retains its shape State B: Highly compressible Which
telo118 [61]

Answer:

State A = piece of metal; State B = air

Explanation:

For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.

Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape

Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape

Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.

Knowing this State A has to be solid.  Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer.   Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.

An atom in the ground state has a collision with an electron, then emits a photon with a wavelength of 1240 nm. What conclusion
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

attached below is the free body diagram of the missing  illustration

Initial kinetic energy of the electron = 3 eV

Explanation:

The conclusion that can be drawn about the kinetic energy of the electron is

E_{e} = E_{3}  - E_{1}

E_{e} = initial kinetic energy of the electron

E_{1} = -4 eV

E_{3} = -1 eV

insert the values into the equation above

E_{e} = -1 -(-4)  eV

   = -1 + 4 = 3 eV

A machine accelerates a 5 kg missile from rest to a speed of 5 km/s. The net force accelerating the missile 500,000 N. How long
Gnoma [55]
Final velocity = 5km/sec = 5000 m/sec
Initial velocity = 0, mass = 5kg and force = 500,000 N
F = m(Vf-Vi)/time
Time = m(Vf-Vi)/force = 5*5000/500000 = 0.05 seconds
So, it takes 0.05 sec to arrive at the speed of 5km/s.
