A 1.0-kg standard cart collides on a low-friction track with cart A. The standard cart has an initial x component of velocity of
Andru [333]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mathematically, linear momentum is expressed as the product of mass and velocity. Linear momentum conservation law states that a body or system of bodies retains its total momentum unless an external force is applied to the system.

In this case, the system consists of two carts.

At the start, the linear momentum (P) of the system is equal to:

P=1.0kg*0.4m/s=0.4kg*m/s

It's only composed of linear momentum of the standard cart because cart A doesn't have any linear momentum at that moment.

After the collision, linear momentum has to be the same

P=0.4kg*m/s=1.0kg*0.20m/s+m_{A} *0.70m/s

where m_A is the mass of the cart A.

Solving for m_A

m_{A} =0.28kg

After the cart A rebounds, the linea momentum of the system has changed (because of the force present in the rebound). The new linear momentum is:

P=1kg*0.2m/s+0.29kg*(-0.7m/s)=-0.003kg*m/s

Then, the lump of putty is added to the system, but the linear momentum has to be the same, because we added a mass, not a force. The mass of that putty (m_p) has to be added to the equation of the system

-0.003kg*m/s=1.0kg*(-0.2m/s)+(0.29kg+m_{p} )(0.4m/s)

Solving for m_p

m_{p}=0.20kg

A child pushes horizontally on a box of mass m which moves with constant speed v across a horizontal floor. The coefficient of f
dexar [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box is m

speed of box is v

coefficient of friction \mu =\frac{1}{4}=0.25

Box is moving at a constant speed i.e. Net Force on box is zero

i.e. Frictional Force and Force Applied are Equal

F=f_r=\mu mg

The Rate at which power is generated is

P=F\cdot v

P=\mu mg\cdot v

P=0.25mgv

At a waterpark, sleds with riders are sent along a slippery, horizontal surface by the release of a large, compressed spring. Th
steposvetlana [31]

The sleds speed when the spring returns toits uncompressed length is v = 0.03 m/s.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given,

force constant = 42 N/cm = 0.42 N/m,   mass m = 68 kg, spring x = 0.39 m

The potential energy, U, stored in the spring is

                     U = 1/2 kx^2  

                       = 1 / 2 \times 0.42 \times (0.39)^2

                       = 0.032 J

All its potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy since it has a uncompressed length.

                    K = 1/2 mv^2

                     v = sqrt (2K / m)

                       = √(( 2 \times 0.032) / 68)

                    v = 0.03 m/s .
