During an in-class demonstration of momentum change and impulse, Mr. H asks Jerome (102 kg) and Michael (98 kg) to sit on a larg

e 14-kg skate cart. Mr. H asks Suzie (44 kg) to sit on a second 14-kg skate cart. The two carts are placed on low friction boards in the hallway. Jerome pushes off of Suzie's cart. Measurements are made to determine that Suzie's cart acquired a post-impulse speed of 9.6 m/s. Determine the expected recoil speed of Jerome and Michael's cart.

Answer:

2.6 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Jerome (Mj) = 102 kg

mass of Micheal (Mm) = 98 kg

mass of each cart (Mc) = 14 kg

recoil speed of Jerone and Micheal after push (Vi) = ?

mass of Suzie (Ms) = 44 kg

Suzie's speed after push (Vs) = 9.6 m/s

From the conservation of momentum, initial momentum = final momentum

Since they all are initially at rest the initial momentum is 0 and hence the final momentum is also 0.

Therefore for the final momentum we have

(Mj + Mm + Mc) Vi - (Ms + Mc) Vs = 0 ( the negative sign is because they move in opposite directions)

((102 + 98 + 14) x Vi ) - ((44 + 14) x 9.6) = 0

(214 x Vi) - (58 x 9.6) = 0

214 Vi = 556.8

Vi = 556.8 / 214 = 2.6 m/s

4. The core is where fusion occurs when Nuclear Thermal Fusion happens, which means the core is fusing hydrogen to create helium. This energy passes through both the convection and radiation zone. If you need any more help with this subject, I'll be able to help.

What is the frequency of a photon of emr with a wavelength of 2.55x10-3m?

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz

Explanation:

The equation used to find frequency is:

f = c / w

In this form, "f" represents the frequency (Hz), "c" represents the speed of light (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s), and "w" represents the wavelength (m).

Since you have been given the value of the constant (c) and wavelength, you can substitute these values into the equation to find frequency.

f = c / w <---- Formula

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / w <---- Plug 3.0 x 10⁸ in "c"

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (2.55 x 10⁻³ m) <---- Plug 2.55 x 10⁻³ in "w"

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz <---- Divide

A spacecraft is fueled using hydrazine (N2H4; molecular weight of 32 grams per mole [g/mol]) and carries 1640 kilograms [kg] of

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The value is $t = 689.029 \ hours$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The molar mass of hydrazine is $Z = 32 g/mol = \frac{32}{1000} = 0.032 \ kg/mol$

The initial temperature is $T_i = -186 ^o F = (-186-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 152\ K$

The final temperature is $T_f = 78 ^o F = (78-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 298.7 \ K$

The specific heat capacity is $c_h = 0.099 [kJ/(mol K)] = 0.099 *10^3 J/(mol/K)$

The power available is $P = 300 \ W$

The mass of the fuel is $m = 1640 \ kg$

Generally the number of moles of hydrazine present is

$n = \frac{m}{Z}$

=> $n = \frac{1640}{= 0.032}$

=> $n = 51250 \ mol$

Generally the quantity of heat energy needed is mathematically represented as

$Q = n * c_h * (T_f -T_i)$

=> $Q = 51250 * 0.099 *10^3 * (298.7 - 152)$

=> $Q = 7.441516913 * 10^{8} \ J$

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{Q}{P}$

=> $t = \frac{7.441516913 * 10^{8} }{300}$

=> t = 2480505.6377 s

Converting to hours

$t = \frac{2480505.6377}{3600}$

=> $t = 689.029 \ hours$

Which quantity measures the maximum distance an object on a spring moves from the equilibrium position during oscillation?

nasty-shy [4]

The appropriate response is amplitude. A measure of its change over a solitary period. There are different meanings of plentifulness, which are all elements of the extent of the distinction between the variable's outrageous qualities. In more seasoned writings, the stage is now and again called the adequacy.
