Suppose you are on a cart, initially at rest, which rides on a frictionless horizontal track. You throw a ball at a vertical sur

face that is firmly attached to the cart. If the ball bounces straight back as shown in the picture, will the cart be put into motion after the ball bounces back from the surface?
A.Yes, and it moves to the right.
B.Yes, and it moves to the left.
C.No, it remains in place

Answer:

F_c t_ c = -F_b t_b

And the forces are equal but in the opposite direction. So then we can write by general rule:

m_c \Delta V_{c} = -m_b \Delta V_b

Or equivalently:

m_c \Delta V_{c} +m_b \Delta V_b =0

Where: V_c represent the speed of the car and V_b the speed of the ball

m_c represent the mass of the car

m_b represent the mass of the ball

Since the ball is moving to the left and we assume that the total momentum not changes then the car need to move to the right in order to satisfy the equation and satisfy the balance.

By conservation of the momentum the car will move to the right since the ball is moves to the left.

So then the correct option for this case is :

A.Yes, and it moves to the right.

Explanation:

If we assume that we have the situation in the figure attached.

For this case we assume that the momentum changes are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, so then we satisfy this:

F_c t_ c = -F_b t_b

And the forces are equal but in the opposite direction. So then we can write by general rule:

m_c \Delta V_{c} = -m_b \Delta V_b

Or equivalently:

m_c \Delta V_{c} +m_b \Delta V_b =0

Where: V_c represent the speed of the car and V_b the speed of the ball

m_c represent the mass of the car

m_b represent the mass of the ball

Since the ball is moving to the left and we assume that the total momentum not changes then the car need to move to the right in order to satisfy the equation and satisfy the balance.

By conservation of the momentum the car will move to the right since the ball is moves to the left.

So then the correct option for this case is :

A.Yes, and it moves to the right.

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.5 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid
bixtya [17]

Answer:

u_{s}=0.56

Explanation:

For the cat to stay in place on the merry go round without sliding the magnitude of maximum static friction must be equal to magnitude of centripetal force

F_{s.max}=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\

Where the r is the radius of merry-go-round and v is the tangential speed

but

F_{s.max}=u_{s}F_{N}=u_{s}mg

So we have

u_{s}mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\ u_{s}=\frac{v^2}{gr}\\ Where\\v=\frac{2\pi R}{T} \\So\\u_{s}=\frac{(\frac{2\pi R}{T} )^2}{gr} \\u_{s}=\frac{4\pi^2 r}{gT^2}

Substitute the given values

So

u_{s}=\frac{4\pi^2 5.5m}{(9.8m/s^2)(6.3s)^2} \\u_{s}=0.56

An X-ray tube emits X-rays with a wavelength of 1.0 x 10-11 m. Calculate the potential that must be applied across the X-ray tub
sergey [27]

Answer:

1.24 x 10 to the 5 ev = 124,000 ev          its B

Explanation:

E = hc/lambda = 1.24 ev-micrometer/1.0x10 to the -5 micrometers = 1.24 x 10 to the 5 ev = 124,000 ev

h = Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10 to the -34 joule·s

c = speed of light = 2.998 × 10 to the 8 m/s

lambda is the given wavelength

E is the desired photon energy

Think of a way you could demonstrate elastic force to a younger student. Describe the procedure you would follow and the materia
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

I feel like to demonstrate you would use an elastic band as the material. You obviously have to put force in order to see how far it stretches. From this you can also find about its resistance and durability

Also you have to make sure the distance between the two hands are equal as you want an accurate result.
