Two gliders collide on a frictionless air track that is aligned along the x axis. Glider A has an initial velocity of +4.0 m/s a

nd a mass of mA = 0.20 kg. Glider B is initially at rest and has a mass mB. After they collide, A has a velocity of -1.0 m/s and B has a velocity of +2.0 m/s. Determine mB. Assume that It is an elastic collision.

Answer:

As collision is elastic,thus we can use conservation of momentum equation

mA=0.2 kg

(vB)1=0 m/s.......................as it is on rest before collision

(vA)1=4 m/s

(vA)2=-1 m/s

(vB)2=2 m/s

using equation

(mA*vA+mB*vB)1= (mA*vA+mB*vB)2

Where 1 and 2 represents before and after collision

(0.2*4)+(mB*0)=(0.2*-1)+(mB*2)

0.8=-0.2+(2mB)

mass of object B=mB=0.3 Kg

How does inertia affect someone who isn't wearing a seatbelt
Paul [167]
Basically, when someone is resting in an accelerated vehicle without restraint from a seatbelt, the force of stopping the vehicle will be when inertia occurs, and that force of the vehicle coming to a stop will affect the passenger (without a seatbelt/restraint from another force or object) greatly by throwing them.
For example;
If I were to be riding in a vehicle (without a seatbelt) that's accelerating at 40 m/s^2 and it suddenly gets slammed on the breaks, I will be thrown forward from inside the vehicle.

I hope this helps!

A van has a weight of 4000 lb and center of gravity at Gv. It carries a fixed 900 lb load which has a center of gravity at Gl. I
natulia [17]

Answer:

 x = 25 / μ     [ ft]

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we can use Newton's second law.

Let's set a reference system where the x axis is parallel to the road

Y axis  

       N_B + N_A - W_van - W_load = 0

       N_B + N_A = W_van + W_load

X axis

     fr = ma

     a = fr / m

the total mass is

        m = (W_van + W_load) / g

the friction force has the expression

      fr = μ N_{total}

      fr = μy (W_van + W_load)

we substitute

      a = μ (W_van + W_load)    \frac{g}{W_van + W_load}

      a = μ g

taking the acceleration let's use the kinematic relations where the final velocity is zero

       v² = v₀² - 2 a x

       0 = v₀² -2a x

        x = \frac{v_o^2}{2a}

        x = \frac{v_o^2}{2 \mu g}

        x = \frac{40^2}{2 \ 32 \  \mu}

        x = 25 / μ     [ ft]

In chemical reactions, energy is absorbed or released in the form of:
disa [49]

Answer:

Heat

Explanation:

Because chemical energy is stored, it is a form of potential energy. When a chemical reaction takes place, the stored chemical energy is released. Heat is often produced as a by-product of a chemical reaction – this is called an exothermic reaction.

Hope this helped.

The magnitude J(r) of the current density in a certain cylindrical wire is given as a function of radial distance from the cente
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

18.1 × 10⁻⁶ A = 18.1 μA

Explanation:

The current I in the wire is I = ∫∫J(r)rdrdθ

Since J(r) = Br, in the cylindrical wire. With width of 10.0 μm, dr = 10.0 μm. r = 1.20 mm. We have a differential current dI. We integrate first by integrating dθ from θ = 0 to θ = 2π.

So, dI = J(r)rdrdθ

dI/dr = ∫J(r)rdθ = ∫Br²dθ = Br²∫dθ = 2πBr²

Now I = (dI/dr)dr at r = 1.20 mm = 1.20 × 10⁻³ m and dr = 10.0 μm = 0.010 mm = 0.010 × 10⁻³ m

I = (2πBr²)dr = 2π × 2.00 × 10⁵ A/m³ × (1.20 × 10⁻³ m)² × 0.010 × 10⁻³ m  =  0.181 × 10⁻⁴ A = 18.1 × 10⁻⁶ A = 18.1 μA
