<h3>Answer:</h3>

49500 kgm/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Data given;

  • First car; Mass = 1100 kg
  • Velocity = 30 m/s
  • Second car; mass = 1100 kg
  • Velocity = 15 m/s

We are required to calculate the total momentum of the system.

  • We need to know that momentum is calculated by multiplying the velocity of a body by its mass.
  • Therefore;

Momentum of the first car = 1100 kg × 30 m/s

                                           = 33,000 kgm/s

Momentum of the second car = 1100 kg × 15 m/s

                                                  = 16,500 kgm/s

Therefore;

Total momentum = 33,000 kgm/s + 16,500 kgm/s

                             = 49500 kgm/s

Thus, the total momentum of the system is 49500 kgm/s

A railroad car of mass M moving at a speed v1 collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars, each of the same mass M and m
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

vf = v₁/3 + 2v₂/3

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of linear momentum,

momentum before impact = momentum after impact

So, Mv₁ + 2Mv₂ = 3Mv (since the railroad cars combine) where v₁ = initial velocity of first railroad car, v₂ = initial velocity of the other two coupled railroad cars, and vf = final velocity of the three railroad cars after impact.

Mv₁ + 2Mv₂ = 3Mvf

dividing through by 3M, we have

v₁/3 + 2v₂/3 = vf

vf = v₁/3 + 2v₂/3

An electron moving in the direction of the +x-axis enters a magnetic field. If the electron experiences a magnetic deflection in
algol13

Answer:

- z axis

Explanation:

The magnetic force is perpendicular to its speed and the direction of the magnetic field, its equation being

      F = q v x B

Where the bold indicates vectors, q  is a positive charge,

The way to use this equation is with the rule of the right hand, the thumb points in the direction of the velocity, the other fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field and the palm is the direction of the force for a positive charge.

Let's apply this to our case the speed is on the x axis and the force in ex. negative Y axis, the other fingers point perpendicular to the sheet, but since the charge is negative the magnetic field enters the sheet, this would be the negative z axis

Help me in this please help me!
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

1. A

2. C

3. A

4. B

Explanation:

A conductor allows electric current to pass through it. Hence, when conductors are connected in a closed circuit, current flows.

All the resistors in Q2 are connected in series. In a series connection, the current across all the resistors is the same.

In a battery, chemical energy is converted to electrical energy by chemical reactions.

When a new resistor is connected in parallel to a circuit the current increases accordingly.

Is it true or false that A proton traveling to the right moves in between the two large plates. A vertical electric field, point
Lelu [443]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In the question it is given that a proton travels in the right moves in between the two plates. An electric field that is pointing in the vertically upward direction has magnitude of 3 N/C. The electric field is produced by the plates.

Now from here we can conclude that the direction of the force acting on the proton when the proton is in between the plates acts in the downward direction. While the electric field lines points in the upward direction. Thus the electric point will not be in the direction of the force that acts on the proton.
