How much force does it take to stop a 1,000 kg car traveling at 20 m/s in 10 seconds?

1 answer:

5 0

The initial momentum of the car is

(mass) x (speed) = 20,000 kg-m/s

"Impulse" is (force exerted) x (time the force lasts)
and it's equal to the change in momentum.

(Force) x (10 sec) = 20,000 kg-m/s

Divide each side by (10 sec) and you have

Force = (20,000 kg-m/s) / (10 sec)

= 2,000 kg-m/s² = 2,000 Newtons

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor is 121 nano-Coulomb, how many excess electrons are on that plate? Write you

Julli [10]

Answer:

n = 756.25 giga electrons

Explanation:

It is given that,

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor, $Q=121\ nC=121\times 10^{-9}\ C$

Let n is the number of excess electrons are on that plate. Using the quantization of charges, the total charge on the negative plate is given by :

$Q=ne$

e is the charge on electron

$n=\dfrac{Q}{e}$

$n=\dfrac{121\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

$n=7.5625\times 10^{11}$

n = 756.25 giga electrons

So, there are 756.25 giga electrons are on the plate. Hence, this is the required solution.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Momentum describing the inelastic collision of two bodies. By definition the collision between the two bodies is given as:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)V_f$
