A 1.0 kg cart moving right at 5.0 m/s on a frictionless track collides with a second cart moving at 2.0m/s. The 1.0 kg cart has

a final speed of 4.0 m/s to the left, and the second cart has a final speed of 1.0 m/s to the right. What is the mass of the second cart? Consider rightward as the positive direction.

Answer:

m₂ = 3kg

Explanation:

The question wasn't clear about what direction the initial velocity of the second cart was, so I'll assume it was going left at 2.0m/s.

Anyway, this is a conservation of momentum problem. The equation you need to use is the one written in blue. They want you to solve for the mass of the second cart, so do some algebra and rearrange that blue equation in term of m₂.

Now that you have the equation for m₂, plug in all the values given from the question and you'll get 3kg.

How will a current change if the voltage in a circuit is held constant while the resistance doubles? 1. it's impossible to predi
laila [671]
According to Ohm's Law: 

I =  \frac{V}{R}

Where: V = Voltage
            I = Current
            R = Resistance

As you can see here, you can say that Current is directly proportional to Voltage and indirectly proportional to Resistance. This means that as the voltage increases, current increases and as the resistance increases, current decreases. 

So in your scenario, if the voltage remains the same, but the resistance is doubled, that means that the current will be halved. So the answer to your question is 2. the current will drop to half of its original value.

The gravity on mars is 3.8 m/s2 and you weigh 200 N. your mass will be??
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Mass = 52.63 kilograms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration due to gravity = 3.8 m/s²

Weight = 200 N

To find mass;

Mathematically, the weight of a physical object is given by the formula;

Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Substituting into the formula, we have;

200 = mass * 3.8

Mass = 200/3.8

Mass = 52.63 kg

If an object doubles in mass, what happens to its momentum? Explain why.
Umnica [9.8K]
Its momentum doubles as well. Considering momentum equals M•V. Regardless of velocity (except if it’s not moving, in that case it doesn’t have any momentum) it will be double.

In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···

In parallel circuit, \frac{1}{Req}  = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + \frac{1}{R3} +...

<h3>Q7.</h3>

total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{R2+2} +\frac{1}{6}

R₂ + 2 = 12

R₂ = 10Ω

<h3>Q8.</h3>

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{2+1} + \frac{1}{4}

Req = 1.7Ω
