Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

The momentum is equal to m*v
m is mass
v is speed
so 1.5 kg*1.4m/s + 1 kg*1.4m/s
2.5kg*1.4m/s
3.5 kgm/s
hope it helps

A diver rises quickly to the surface from a 5.0 m depth. If she did not exhale the gas from her lunds before rising, by what fac
Inessa [10]

Answer:

1.5 times

Explanation:

h = depth of the diver initially = 5 m

\rho = density of seawater = 1030 kg m⁻³

P_{i} = Initial pressure at the depth

P_{f} = final pressure after rising = 101325 Pa

Initial pressure at the depth is given as

P_{i} = P_{f} + \rho gh\\P_{i} = 101325 + (1030) (9.8) (5)\\P_{i} = 151795 Pa

V_{i} = Initial volume at the depth

V_{f} = Final volume after rising

Since the temperature remains constant, we have

P_{f} V_{f} = P_{i} V_{i}\\(101325) V_{f} = (151795) V_{i}\\V_{f} = 1.5 V_{i}

You serve a volleyball with a mass of 1.4 kg. The ball leaves with a speed of 13 m/s. Calculate KE
NemiM [27]

Answer:

118.3 J

Explanation:

Givens:

m = 1.4 kg

V = 13 m/s

Formula for kinetic energy:

KE = (1/2)*(m)*(v)^2

KE = .5*(1.4 kg)*(13 m/s)^2

KE 118.3 J

J = Joules

A car is up on a hydraulic lift at a garage. The wheels are free to rotate, and the drive wheels are rotating with a constant an
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wheels are rotating with constant angular velocity let say \omega

Presence of constant angular velocity show that there is no angular acceleration thus there is no tangential acceleration.

But any particle on the rim will experience a constant acceleration towards center called centripetal acceleration.

(a) yes, there will be tangential velocity which is given by

v=r\cdot \omega

where r=radial distance from center

(b)tangential acceleration

there would be no tangential acceleration as velocity is constant

(c)centripetal acceleration

Yes, there will be centripetal acceleration given by

a_c=\omega ^2\times r

The gravitational force between two objects is 2400 N. What will be the gravitational force between the objects if the mass of o
motikmotik

Answer:

4800N

Explanation:

Lets assume,

Mass of first object = m₁

Mass of second object = m₂

Distance between the two objects = r

Thus the force between the two objects will be

F = \frac{G\times m_{1}\times m_{2}}{r^{2}}

where, G = Universal gravitational constant

Given, F = 2400N

New mass of second object = 2m₂

Now, the force will be

F_{2} = \frac{G\times m_{1}\times 2m_{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{2}= 2\frac{G\times m_{1}\times m_{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{2}= 2F

F_{2}= 2\times2400

Thus, F₂ = 4800N
