6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t

he left with a velocity of -0.22 m/s, what is the total momentum of the system before the collision

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.    

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of I cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

initial velocity of I cart, u = 0.31 m/s

mass of II cart, m' = 500 g =0.5 kg

initial velocity of II cart, u' = - 0.22 m/s

Total momentum before collision = m x u + m' x u'

                                                        = 0.25 x 0.31 - 0.5 x 0.22

                                                        = 0.0775 - 0.11

                                                        = - 0.0325 kg m/s

Suppose the sphere is electrically neutral. Is it attracted to
Elden [556K]

Answer:

No, it is not attracted.

Explanation:

If any sphere is electrically neutral it is not attracted. The materials which are attracted by magnet are called magnetic material whereas which are not attracted are called non magnetic material. Sphere made up of non magnetic materials such as glass, wood, paper will not attracted weather is kept near north pole or near south pole.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

v = 15.8 m/s

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation a little, we have a compressed spring so it has an elastic energy that will become part kinetic energy and a potential part for the man to get out of the barrel, in addition there is a friction force that they perform work against the movement.  So the variation of mechanical energy is equal to the work of the fictional force

    W_{fr} = ΔEm = Em_{f} -Em₀

Let's write the mechanical energy at each point

Initial

    Em₀ = Ke = ½ k x²

Final

   Em_{f} = K + U = ½ m v² + mg y

Let's use Hooke's law to find compression

    F = - k x

    x = -F / k

    x = 4400/1100

    x = - 4 m

Let's write the energy equation

    fr d = ½ m v² + mgy - ½ k x²

Let's clear the speed

   v² = (fr d + ½ kx² - mg y) 2 / m

   v² = (40 4.00 + ½ 1100 4² - 60.0 9.8 2.50)   2/60.0

   v² = (160 + 8800 - 1470) / 30

   v = √ (229.66)

   v = 15.8 m/s

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery and becomes fully charged. The capacitor is then disconnected, and the sepa
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance is as follows as;

C=\frac{\epsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, C is the capacitance, \epsilon _{0} is the permittivity of free space, A is the area and d is the distance between the parallel plate capacitor.

It can be concluded from the above expression, the capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance. According to the given problem, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery and the distance between the plates is increased. Then, the capacitance of the given capacitor will decrease in this case.

The expression for the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor is as follows;

E=\frac{Q^{2}}{2C}

Here, E is the energy stored in the capacitor, C is the capacitance and Q is the charge.

Energy stored in the given capacitor is inversely proportional to the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is constant. In the given problem, as the distance between the parallel plates is being separated, the energy stored in this capacitor increases.

Therefore, the option (c) is correct.
