Two cars collide on the parkway. The drivers are following too closely and the driver in the front slows because of traffic to a

velocity of 20.0m/s and the driver behind is still moving at 30.0m/s, both cars traveling in the same direction in a rear end collision. If the cars are stuck together after the collision, how fast will they be traveling?

Answer:

The are moving with a speed of 25 m/s after the collision.

Explanation:

assuming the mass (m) of the cars are equal, let v = 20 m/s be the velocity of the driver in the front and u = 30 m/s be the velocity of the driver behind. let V be the velocity of the cars after the collision.

then, by conservation of linear momentum:

m×(v + u) = V×2×m

(v + u) = V×2

V = (v + u)/2

  = (20 + 30)/2

  = 25 m/s

Therefore, the are moving with a speed of 25 m/s after the collision.

What is the maximum value of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 m from a light bulb that radiates 100 W of single-frequency
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1.04\times 10^{-7} T

Explanation:

IP  = Power of the bulb = 100 W

r  = distance from the bulb = 2.5 m

I = Intensity of light at the location

Intensity of the light at the location is given as

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}

I = \frac{100}{4(3.14) (2.5)^{2}}

I = 1.28 W/m²

B_{o} = maximum magnetic field

Intensity is given as

I = \frac{B_{o}^{2}c}{2\mu _{o}}

1.28 = \frac{B_{o}^{2}(3\times 10^{8})}{2(12.56\times 10^{-7})}

B_{o} = 1.04\times 10^{-7} T

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

4F

Explanation:

F = kQ₁Q₂/d²

F' = k2Q₁2Q₂/d²

F' = 4(kQ₁Q₂/d²)

F' = 4F

The main difference between a series and a parallel circuit is that
ale4655 [162]
C) is correct

series circuit - in the same path : current flow on one path so they are equal on each component and equal to the source's. voltage on each components may be different.

parallel circuit - between same nodes : voltage of the components are equal and equal to the source's. current on each components may be different.
