A car of mass 998 kilograms moving in the positive y–axis at a speed of 20 meters/second collides on ice with another car of mas
goldfiish [28.3K]
    <span> Let’s determine the initial momentum of each car.
#1 = 998 * 20 = 19,960
#2 = 1200 * 17 = 20,400

This is this is total momentum in the x direction before the collision. B is the correct answer. Since momentum is conserved in both directions, this will be total momentum is the x direction after the collision. To prove that this is true, let’s determine the magnitude and direction of the total momentum after the collision.

Since the y axis and the x axis are perpendicular to each other, use the following equation to determine the magnitude of their final momentum.

Final = √(x^2 + y^2) = √(20,400^2 + 19,960^2) = √814,561,600

This is approximately 28,541. To determine the x component, we need to determine the angle of the final momentum. Use the following equation.

Tan θ = y/x = 19,960/20,400 = 499/510
θ = tan^-1 (499/510)

The angle is approximately 43.85˚ counter clockwise from the negative x axis. To determine the x component, multiply the final momentum by the cosine of the angle.

x = √814,561,600 * cos (tan^-1 (499/510) = 20,400</span>

A Capacitor is a circuit component that stores energy and can be charged when current flows through it. A current of 3A flows th
ddd [48]

Answer:

8\mu C

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2\mu s

i = Current = 3 A

q(0) = Initial charge = 2\mu C

Charge is given by

q=\int_0^t idt+q(0)\\\Rightarrow q=\int_0^{2\mu s} 3dt+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=3(2\mu s-0)+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=6\mu C+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=8\mu C

The magnitude of the net electric charge of the capacitor is 8\mu C

Two particles, each of mass m, are initially at rest very far apart.Obtain an expression for their relative speed of approach at
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

Explanation:

Consider two particles are initially at rest.

Therefore,

the kinetic energy of the particles is zero.

That initial K.E. = 0

The relative velocity with which both the particles are approaching each other is Δv and their reduced masses are

\mu= \frac{m_1m_2}{m_1+m_2}

now, since both the masses have mass m

therefore,

\mu= \frac{m^2}{2m}

= m/2

The final K.E. of the particles is

KE_{final}=\frac{1}{2}\times \mu\times \Delta v^2

Distance between two particles is d and the gravitational potential energy between them is given by

PE_{Gravitational}= \frac{Gmm}{d}

By law of conservation of energy we have

KE_{initial}+KE_{final}= PE_{gravitaional}

Now plugging the values we get

0+\frac{1}{2}\frac{m}{2}\Delta v^2= -\frac{Gmm}{d}

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

=\sqrt{\frac{Gm}{d} }

This the required relation between G,m and d

A 40-W lightbulb is 1.7 m from a screen. What is the intensity of light incident on the screen? Assume that a lightbulb emits ra
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Intensity, I=1.101\ W/m^2

Explanation:

Power of the light bulb, P  = 40 W

Distance from screen, r = 1.7 m

Let I is the intensity of light incident on the screen. The power acting per unit area is called the intensity of the light. Its formula is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{A}

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

I=\dfrac{40\ W}{4\pi (1.7\ m)^2}

I=1.101\ W/m^2

So, the intensity of light is 1.101\ W/m^2.
