II. IDENTIFY THE TYPE OF FORCE

uysha [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Frictional force is responsible for running of car and buses on roads.

2.Gravitational force exists between astronauts in space.

3. Magnetic for is responsible to attract the iron objects using a magnet

4.Electrostatic force is responsible for fiber to stick on the skin.This force occurs due to the presence of charge.

5.When a person is pushing a trolley then object experience a normal reaction from ground.

6.Gravitational force makes the planet to move in their orbits.

The distance between slits in a double-slit experiment is decreased by a factor of 2. If the distance between fringes is small c

Elodia [21]

Answer:

the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Explanation:

To find how the distance between fringes is modified you can use the following formula for the calculation of the distance between fringes:

$\Delta y=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

D: distance to the screen

d: distance between slits

λ: wavelength of the light

if d is decreased by a factor of 2, that is d'=1/2d, you have:

$\Delta y'=\frac{\lambda D}{d'}=\frac{\lambda D}{(1/2)d}=2\Delta y$

hence, the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Car A has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling at a rate of 22 km/hr. It collides with car B. Car B has a mass of 1,900 kg and is

anastassius [24]

The car A has a mass of 1200 kg.

The car B has the mass of 1900 kg.

It is given that velocity of car A is given as 22 Km/hr

The car B has the velocity of 25 Km/hr.

Let the mass of two bodies are denoted as $m_{1} \ and\ m_{2}$

Let the velocity of cars A and B are denoted as $v_{1} \ and\ v_{2}$

The momentum before collision is-

$p_{i} =m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2} v_{2}$

[Here p stand for momentum.]

We are asked to calculate the final momentum of the system after collision.

The answer of the question is based law of conservation of linear momentum.

As per law of conservation of linear momentum the sum total linear momentum for an isolated system is always constant.Hence irrespective of the type of collision[elastic and inelastic],the momentum of the system is always constant which is a universal truth.

Let after the collision the velocity of A and B are $v'_{1} \ and\ v'_{2}$

Hence the final momentum of the system is-

$p_{f} = m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}$

As per the law of conservation of linear momentum, the initial and final momentum must be equal i.e

$p_{i} =p_{f}$

$m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2}v_{2} =m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}$

Hence the option A is right.
