Two pop cans are at rest on a stand. A firecracker is placed between the cans and lit. The firecracker explodes and exerts equal

and opposite forces on the two cans. Assuming the system of two cans to be isolated, the post-explosion momentum of the system ____.
a. is dependent upon the mass and velocities of the two cans
b. is dependent upon the velocities of the two cans (but not their mass)
c. is typically a very large value
d. can be a positive, negative or zero value
e. is definitely zero

Answer:

e. is definitely zero

Explanation:

Given that

At initial condition the speed of the pop cans is zero.

We know that linear momentum

P = Mass x velocity

P =  m v

At initial condition v = 0

P= 0

If there is no any external force then the linear momentum of the system will be conserve.And given that ,consider the system isolated.

Therefore the answer is e.

A road that rises 1 ft for every 100 ft traveled
Lana71 [14]

Explanation:

6% grade

=> Rises 6 feet for every 100 feet traveled

This would mean that tanx = 6/100.

=> x = tan^-1(6/100) = 3.4°. (1d.p.)

Hence the road is inclined at an angle of 3.4° above the horizontal.

Lyrx [107]

Answer: Solid

Explanation: There are 3 major state of matter - solid, liquid and gas.

Among the 3 state, solid has a fixed volume while liquid takes the volume of its container. When gas is compressed, it takes the volume of its container likewise.

A long solenoid, of radius a, is driven by an alternating current, so that the field inside is sinusoidal: B(t) = B0 cos(ωt) ˆz.
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

B(t) = B0 cos(ωt) • k

Radius r = a

Inner radius r' = a/2 and resistance R.

Current in the loop as a function of time I(t) =?

Magnetic flux is given as

Φ = BA

And the Area is given as

A = πr², where r = a/2

A = πa²/4

Then,

Φ = ¼ Bπa²

Φ(t) = ¼πa²Bo•Cos(ωt)

Then, the EMF is given as

ε(t) = -dΦ/dt

ε(t) = -¼πa²Bo • -ωSin(ωt)

ε(t) = ¼ωπa²Bo•Sin(ωt)

From ohms law,

ε = iR

Then, i = ε/R

I(t) = ¼ωπa²Bo•Sin(ωt) /R

This is the current induced in the loop.
