An isolated system consists of two masses. The first, m1, has a mass of 1.90 kg, and is initially traveling to the east with a s

peed of 6.71 m/s. The second, m2, has a mass of 2.94 kg, and is initially traveling to the west with an unknown initial speed. The two masses collide head-on in a completely inelastic collision that stops them both. Calculate the initial kinetic energy of m2.

If two parallel conductors are both free to move and are carrying current in the same direction, what would happen if the curren
pishuonlain [190]

The wires would remain attracted to each other.

Option D.

Explanation:

It is known that magnetic flux will be generated in conductors with varying emf. So when current is flowing in two parallel conductors, the magnetic flux will be generated in those wires. If the current is flowing in same direction in both the wires, then the magnetic flux will be generated towards inside and outside the wires. Thus, the wire will get attracted to each other till the time the current is flowing in the same direction in both the wires. So if the current flow in each wire was reversed at the same time, then the wire would remain attracted to each other.

              How do crabs support and protect themselves without a skeleton
Brums [2.3K]
Technically, they do have a skeleton. The hard shell it has is called an exoskeleton. It works just like our skeleton, in terms of muscles and support. And, it protects from harm, similar to the way our skin protects the inside of our body from dirt and such.

Before 1960, people believed that the maximum attainable coefficient of static friction for an automobile tire on a roadway was
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

4.18

Explanation:

Givens  

The car's initial velocity  v_{i}= 0 and covering a distance Δx = 1/4 mi = 402.336 m in a time interval t = 4.43 s.  

Knowns

We know that the maximum static friction force is given by:

f_{s_max} =μ_s*n                         (1)

Where μ_s is the coefficient of static friction and n is the normal force.  

Calculations  

(a) First, we calculate the acceleration needed to achieve this goal by substituting the given values into a proper kinematic equation as follows:

Δx=v_{i} +\frac{1}{2} at^2

a=41 m/s

This is the acceleration provided by the engine. Applying Newton's second law on the car, so in equilibrium, when the car is about to move, we find that:  

f_{y}=n-mg=0\\ n=mg\\f_{x}=F-f_{s,max} =0\\ f_{s,max}=F=ma\\

Substituting (3) into (1), we get:

f_{s,max}= μ_s*m*g

Equating this equation with (4), we get:

ma=  μ_s*m*g

 μ_s=a/g

      =4.18
