A 2.00-kg object traveling east at 20.0 m/s collides with a 3.00-kg object traveling west at 10.0 m/s. After the collision, the

2.00-kg object has a velocity 5.00 m/s to the west. How much kinetic energy was lost during the collision?

Lost K.E.= Final K.E. - Initial K.E.
ΔK.E. = 1/2 mv₁² - 1/2 mv₂²
ΔK.E = 1/2 m [v₁²-v₂²]
ΔK.E = 1/2 * 2 * [20-5]
ΔK.E = 1 * 15
ΔK.E = 15 Joules

So, your final answer is 15 Joules.

Calculate the ratio of the drag force on a jet flying at 950 km/h at an altitude of 10 km to the drag force on a prop-driven tra
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

\frac{F_1}{F_2}=3.55

Explanation:

F = Force

C = Drag coefficient equal for both aircrafts

ρ = Density of air

A = Surface area equal for both aircrafts

v = Velocity

v_2=\frac{2}{5}v_1

F_1=\frac{1}{2}\rho_1 CAv_1^2

F_2=\frac{1}{2}\rho_2 CAv_2^2\\\Rightarrow F_2=\frac{1}{2}\rho_2 CA\left(\frac{2}{5}v_1\right)^2

Dividing the above two equations we get

\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\rho_1 CAv_1^2}{\frac{1}{2}\rho_2 CA\left(\frac{2}{5}v_1\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{\rho_1}{\rho_2\frac{4}{25}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{0.38}{0.67\frac{4}{25}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{F_2}=3.55

The ratio of the drag forces is \mathbf{\frac{F_1}{F_2}}=\mathbf{3.55}

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall consider a Gaussian surface inside the insulation in the form of curved wall of a cylinder having radius equal to 3mm and unit length , length being parallel to the axis of wire .

Charge inside the cylinder = 250 x 10⁻⁹ C .

Let E be electric field at the curved surface , perpendicular to surface .

Total electric flux coming out of curved surface

= 2π r x 1 x E

= 2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E

According to Gauss's theorem , total flux coming out

= charge inside / ε ( 250 x 10⁻⁹C  charge will lie inside cylinder )

= 250 x 10⁻⁹ / 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²    (  ε = 2.5 ε₀ = 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² )

= 11.3 x 10³ weber .

so ,

2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E = 11.3 x 10³

E =  11.3 x 10³ /  2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³

= .599 x 10⁶ N /C .
