If a passenger train is traveling on a straight track with a negative velocity and a positive acceleration, is it speeding up or

slowing down?

Answer:

Slowing down

Explanation:

Since a train with negative velocity and positive acceleration, this means its acceleration is in opposite direction with the velocity. As time progress, this opposite direction would decrease the velocity magnitude, making the train slowing down.

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
spin [16.1K]

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.

If a microwave oven produces electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 2.30 ghz, what is their wavelength?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: wavelength is 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.

The frequency of the microwave is, f = 2.30 GHz.

To Find frequency use the formula:

c=fλ

Where, c is the speed of electromagnetic wave or light. f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength of light.

Rearranging, \lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Plug in the values,

\lambdam = \frac{3 \times 10^8 m/s}{2.30 GHz\frac{10^9 Hz}{1 GHz}}=0.130 m\frac{10^9 nm}{1 m} = 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.
