Answer:

Explanation:

Prism is a glass object that is used to study the pattern of refraction.

During this experiment it is not advised to used small values of incident angle , as when a small amount of incident ray is passed the refracted pattern observed at the end will not provide satisfactory results.

The amount of light that comes out of prism which is the refracted light will also be small hence study of complete refracted pattern will not be possible.

The small incident angle will give rise to more errors in measurement.

A 1.5kg cart moves along a track at 0.20m/s until it hits a fixed bumper at the end of the track. Find the average force exerted

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Net force will be 4.875 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the cart m = 1.5 kg

Initial velocity of the cart = 0.2 m/sec

And final velocity of the car = - 0.125 m/sec ( Negative direction is due to opposite direction )

Instant of time $\Delta t=0.1sec$

Change in momentum is given by

$\Delta P=1.5\times (0.2-(-0.125))=1.5\times 0.325=0.4875kgm/sec$

Now force is given by

$F=\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.4875}{0.1}=4.875N$

Net force will be 4.875 N

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 49.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

1.1397 Nm

Explanation:

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth.

If the muscle generates a force

$F = 49.5 N$ and $r = 2.65 cm$ , then the torque is equal to $rF$

we see that r = 2.65 cm = 0.0265 m

therefore

torque = 0.0265 x 49.5

= 1.1397 Nm

2. A 55 kg woman has a momentum of 200 kg m/s. What is her velocity?

NeTakaya

Answer:

$\boxed {\tt 3.63636364 \ m/s}$

Explanation:

Velocity can be found using the following formula:

$v=\frac{p}{m}$

where p is the momentum and m is the mass.

The woman has a mass of 55 kilograms and a momentum of 200 kilogram meters per second.

$p= 200 \ kgm/s\\m=55 \ kg$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$v=\frac{200 \ kg m/s}{55 \ kg}$

Divide. Note that the kilograms, or kg, will cancel each other out.

$v=\frac{200 \ m/s}{55}$

$v= 3.63636364 \ m/s$

The woman's velocity is 3.63636364 meters per second.
