A 6.0-kilogram block, sliding to the east across a horizontal, frictionless surface with a momentum of 30.0 kilogram · meters pe
Lina20 [59]

The final speed of the block after the collision with the obstacle is \boxed{3.33\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}}.

Further Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the block is 6.0\,{\text{kg}}.

The initial momentum of the block is 30\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}.

The impulse imparted by the obstacle is 10\,{\text{N}} \cdot {\text{s}}.

Concept:

The block is sliding towards east and the impulse imparted by the obstacle is towards the obstacle is towards west on the block. It means that the impulse exerted by the obstacle will reduce the momentum of the block.

According to the impulse momentum theorem, the rate of change of momentum of the body is equal to the impulse imparted to the body.

The expression for the impulse momentum theorem is.

{p_f} - p{ & _i} = I               …… (1)                                    

Substitute 30\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} for {p_i} and - 10\,{\text{N}} \cdot {\text{s}} for I  in equation (1).

 \begin{aligned}{p_f} &= - 10\,{\text{N}} \cdot {\text{s}} + 30\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} \\&= 20\,{{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{{\text{kg}} \cdot {\text{m}}} {\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}\\\end{aligned}

The final momentum of the block can be expressed as:

{p_f} = m{v_f}                   …… (2)                                  

Substitute 20\text{kg}\;\text{m/s} for {p_f} and 6.0\,{\text{kg}} for m in equation (2).

 \begin{aligned}20 &= 6 \times {v_f} \\ {v_f}&= \frac{{20}}{6}\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}\\&= 3.33\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} \\ \end{aligned}

Thus, the final speed of the block after the collision with the obstacle is \boxed{3.33\;\text{m/s}}.

Since bulb is connected in the closed circuit at the position of D

as well as switch B is also closed in that position so the current will flow through the bulb and bulb will glow in that position

So the most appropriate correct option will be

D. The light bulb will be on
