A 2.0-kg cart collides with a 1.0-kg cart that is initially at rest on a low-friction track. After the collision, the 1.0-kg car

t moves to the right at 0.50 m/s and the 2.0-kg cart moves to the right at 0.25 m/s . If the positive direction is to the right, what was the initial velocity of the 2.0-kg cart?

Answer:

Initial velocity of first cart will be 0.5 m /sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the cart m_1=2kg

Its collides with other cart of mass m_2=1kg

Let the initial velocity of cart 1 is v_{1i}

As the car 2 is initially at rest so v_{2i} = 0 m/sec

After the collision velocity of first cart is 0.25 m/sec

So v_{1f} = 0.25 m/sec and velocity of second cart is 0.50 m /sec

So v_{2f} = 0.5 m/sec

From conservation of momentum we know that

m_1v_{1i}+m_2v_{2i}=m_1v_{1f}+m_2v_{2f}

2\times v_{1i}+1\times 0=2\times 0.25+1\times 0.5

v_{1i} = 0.5 m /sec

So initial velocity of first cart will be 0.5 m /sec

Colt1911 [192]

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

The L-ft ladder has a uniform weight of W lb and rests against the smooth wall at B. θ = 60. If the coefficient of static friction at A is μ = 0.4.

Determine the magnitude of force at point A and determine if the ladder will slip. given the following; L = 10 FT, W = 76 lb

Answer:

- the magnitude of force at point A is 79.1033 lb

- since FA < FA_max; Ladder WILL NOT slip

Explanation:

Given that;

∑'MA = 0

⇒ NB [Lsin∅] - W[L/2.cos∅] = 0

NB = W / 2tan∅ -------let this be equation 1

∑Fx = 0

⇒ FA - NB = 0

FA = NB

therefore from equation 1

FA = NB = W / 2tan∅

we substitute in our values

FA = NB = 76 / 2tan(60°) = 21.9393 lb

Now ∑Fy = 0

NA - W = 0

NA = W = 76 lb

Net force at A will be

FA' = √( NA² + FA²)

= √( (W)² + (W / 2tan∅)²)

we substitute in our values

FA' = √( (76)² + (21.9393)²)

= √( 5776 + 481.3328)

= √ 6257.3328

FA' = 79.1033 lb

Therefore the magnitude of force at point A is 79.1033 lb

Now maximum possible frictional force at A

FA_max = μ × NA

so, FA_max = 0.4 × 76

FA_max = 30.4 lb

So by comparing, we can easily see that the actual friction force required for keeping the the ladder stationary i.e (FA) is less than the maximum possible friction available at point A.

Therefore since FA < FA_max; Ladder WILL NOT slip

I got part c right but idk why the other parts are wrong HELP!
dedylja [7]

a) The impulse is 76.5 Ns

b) The average force is 546.4 N

c) The final speed is 31.5 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The impulse exerted on an object is defined as

J=\int F\Delta t

where

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the object

\Delta t is the time interval during which the force is applied

If we consider a graph of the force applied vs time, it follows that the impulse exerted is equal to the area under the graph.

Therefore, in this problem, we can calculate the impulse by computing the area under the graph. We have a trapezium, whose bases are

B=0.14-0 = 0.14s\\b=8-5=3s

and whose height is

h=900 N

Therefore, the area (and the impulse) is

J=\frac{(B+b)h}{2}=\frac{(0.14+0.03)(900)}{2}=76.5 Ns

b)

In this problem, the force applied is not constant. However, we can rewrite the impulse also as

J=F_{avg} \Delta t

where

F_{avg} is the average force exerted during the whole time \Delta t

In this problem we have

J = 76.5 Ns is the impulse (calculated in part a)

\Delta t = 0.14 s is the time interval

Solving for the average force, we find

\Delta t = \frac{J}{F_{avg}}=\frac{76.5}{0.14}=546.4 N

c)

According to the impulse theorem, the impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

J=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem, we have

J = 76.5 Ns

m = 3.0 kg is the mass

u = 6.0 m/s is the initial velocity

Solving for v, we find the final velocity (and speed):

v=u+\frac{J}{m}=6.0+\frac{76.5}{3}=31.5 m/s
