the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall
the force exerted on the cart by the wall
the time the cart is in contact with the wall
the acceleration of the cart before it hits the wall

Answer: the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall

Explanation:

Impulse is the force exerted in a small interval of time. It can also be defined as the change in momentum.

I = F Δt = m v - m u = m(v-u)

where, m is the mass of the object, v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity.

It is measured in Newton-seconds or kilogram-meter per second.

When the mass of the cart and initial velocity is given, the final velocity is required after it hits the wall in order to calculate the impulse delivered to the lab cart.

The correct answer to the question is : A) The velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand impulse.

Impulse of a body is defined as the change in momentum or the product of force with time.

Mathematically impulse = m ( v- u ).

Here, v is the final momentum and u is the initial momentum.

Hence, we need the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall in order to calculate the impulse of the lab cart.

What is the wavelength (in nm) of radiation that has an energy content of 1.0x10^2 kJ/mol?
hammer [34]
<span>Energy = h nu, where nu is the frequency
h = 6.63 x 10^-34 J-s, Planck's constant
So nu = E/h = 1 x 10^5 J /h = 0.15 x 10^29 / s
nu lambda = c, the speed of light.
lambda = wavelength = c / nu =3 x 10^8 / 0.15 x 10^29 = 20 x 10^-21 m.

this can possibly be a gamma ray. Gamma rays are very penetrating. It's both matter and an energy. They are electromagnetic radiation that results from a radioactive material.

A crate rests on the flatbed of a truck that is initially traveling at 15 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and
lina2011 [118]

Answer:0.3

Explanation:

Given

velocity of car=15 m/s

truck brought to halt in a distance of 38 m

We know

v^2-u^2=2as

Final velocity (v)=0

0-(15)^2=2(a)(38)

a=\frac{-225}{76}

a=-2.96 m/s^2  (deceleration)

Therefore minimum coefficient of friction \mu will be

\mu \times g=a

\mu =\frac{a}{g}

\mu =\frac{2.96}{9.8}=0.302

PLZ HELP ON #22-26!!!! <br><br>Please explain why and how you got your answer.

22. a - (vf^2 - vi^2)/(2d) 
a = (0 - 23^2)/(170) 
a = -3.1 m/s^2

23. Find the time (t) to reach 33 m/s at 3 m/s^2
33-0/t = 3 
33 = 3t 
t = 11 sec to reach 33 m/s^2
Find the av velocuty: 33+0/2 = 16.5 m/s
Dist = 16.5 * 11 = 181.5 meters to each 33m/s speed. Runway has to be at least this long. 

24. The sprinter starts from rest. The average acceleration is found from: 
(Vf)^2 = (Vi)^2 = 2as ---> a = (Vf)^2 - (Vi)^2/2s = (11.5m/s)^2-0/2(15.0m) = 4.408m/s^2 estimated: 4.41m/s^2
The elapsed time is found by solving
Vf = Vi + at ----> t = vf-vi/a = 11.5m/s-0/4.408m/s^2 = 2.61s

25. Acceleration of car = v-u/t = 0ms^-1-21.0ms^-1/6.00s = -3.50ms^-2
S = v^2 - u^2/2a = (0ms^-1)^2-(21.0ms^-1)^2/2*-3.50ms^-2 = 63.0m 

26. Assuming a constant deceleration of 7.00 m/s^2
final velocity, v = 0m/s 
acceleration, a = -7.00m/s^2
displacement, s - 92m 
Using v^2 = u^2 - 2as 
0^2 - u^2 + 2 (-7.00) (92) 
initial velocity, u = sqrt (1288) = 35.9 m/s 
This is the speed pf the car just bore braking. 

I hope this helps!!

What are the units for acceleration?
Anni [7]
The main units for acceleration are <span>the meter per squared second as told by Galileo Galilei. Although there can be more than one example, I consider this one to be correct. Hope it will help you in some measure.</span>
