A car having a mass of 500 kg is initially at rest. A constant 1,000 N net force acts on the car over a distance of 50 m, causin

g the car to speed up. After it travels 50 m, the car moves with constant velocity.
a.) What is the total work done on the car over the 50 m distance it travels while speeding up?
b.) How fast is the car moving after 50 m?
c.) What is the net force on the car while its moving with constant velocity?
d.) What is the total work done on the car while its moving with constant velocity?

Answer:

(a) 50 kJ

(b) 14.14 m/s

(c) 0 N

(d) 0 J

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of car, m = 500 kg

Force, F = 1000 N

Distance traveled, s = 50 m

Now,

(a) The total work done can be given as:

W = F\times s = 1000\times 50 = 50000\ J = 50\ kJ

(b) To calculate the speed of the car:

Using work-energy relation, we can say that the work done equals the change in the kinetic energy of the car:

W = \Delta KE

\frac{1}{2}m(v'^{2} - v^{2}) = 50000

where

v' = final velocity

v = initial velocity = 0

Now,

\frac{1}{2}\times 500v'^{2} = 50000

v' = \sqrt{200} = 14.14\ m/s

(c) To calculate the net force on the car when the velocity is constant:

The net force is given as the product of mass and acceleration:

F = ma

<em>Acceleration can be defined as the rate with which the velocity of the car changes and the since the velocity is constant, the car will not have any acceleration, a = 0</em>

Thus the net force is also zero.

F_{net} = 500\times 0 = 0\ N

(d) The total work done when the car moves with constant velocity:

W = F_{net}.s = 0\ J

Question 4 (18 marks) (a) During a Physics Lab experiment, 1 st year SFY students analyzed the behavior of capacitors by connect
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

1.) 274.5v

2.) 206.8v

Explanation:

1.) Given that In one part of the lab activities, students connected a 2.50 µF capacitor to a 746 V power source, whilst connected a second 6.80 µF capacitor to a 562 V source.

The potential difference and charge across EACH capacitor will be

V = Voe

Where Vo = initial voltage

e = natural logarithm = 2.718

For the first capacitor 2.50 µF,

V = Vo × 2.718

746 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 746/2.718

Vo = 274.5v

To calculate the charge, use the below formula.

Q = CV

Q = 2.5 × 10^-6 × 274.5

Q = 6.86 × 10^-4 C

For the second capacitor 6.80 µF 

V = Voe

562 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 562/2.718

Vo = 206.77v

The charge on it will be

Q = CV

Q = 6.8 × 10^-6 × 206.77

Q = 1.41 × 10^-3 C

B.) Using the formula V = Voe again

165 = Vo × 2.718

Vo = 165 /2.718

Vo = 60.71v

Q = C × 60.71

Q = C

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay
Artemon [7]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay.

This form of collision is called inelastic collision. And inelastic collision momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved. Hence the correct option is b. only momentum is conserved.
