Two air track carts move along an air track towards each other. Cart A has a mass of 450 g and moves toward the right with a spe

ed of 0.850 m/s and air track cart B has a mass of 300 g and moves toward the left with a speed of 1.12 m/s. What is the total momentum of the system

Answer:

0.465 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the cart A, m1 = 450 g

Speed of the cart A, v1 = 0.85 m/s

Mass of the cart B, m2 = 300 g

Speed of the cart B, v2 = 1.12 m/s

Now, using the law of conservation of momentum.

It is worthy of note that our cart B is moving in opposite directions to A

m1v1 + m2v2 =

(450 * 0.85) - (300 * 1.12) =

382.5 - 336 =

46.5 gm/s

If we convert to kg, we have

46.5 / 100 = 0.465 kgm/s

Thus, the total momentum of the system is 0.465 kgm/s

A 50-loop circular coil has a radius of 3 cm. It is oriented so that the field lines of a magnetic field are perpendicular to th
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

-17.8 V

Explanation:

The induced emf in a coil is given as:

E = \frac{-NdB\pi r^2}{dt}

where N = number of loops

dB = change in magnetic field

r = radius of coil

dt = elapsed time

From the question:

N = 50

dB = final magnetic field - initial magnetic field

dB = 0.35 - 0.10 = 0.25 T

r = 3 cm

dt = 2 ms = 0.002 secs

Therefore, the induced emf is:

E = \frac{-50 * 0.25 * \pi * 0.03^2}{0.002} \\E = -17.8 V

Note: The negative sign implies that the EMf acts in an opposite direction to the change in magnetic flux.

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.40 m and a spring constant of 340 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

(a) Both the charges are positive or negative.

(b) Teh value of each charge is 1.53 x 10^-5 C.

Explanation:

Spring constant, K = 340 N/m

Natural length, L = 0.4 m

stretch, y = 0.033 m

(a) Let the charge on each sphere is q and they repel each other so the nature of charge of either sphere may be both positive or both negative.  

(b) The electrostatic force is balanced by the spring force.

\frac{kq^2}{(L + y)^2}=Ky\\\\\\\frac{9\times 10^9 q^2}{(0.4 +0.033)^2} = 340\times0.033\\\\q= 1.53\times 10^{-5} C
