Two 100 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car A is moving at 8 m/s and Car B at –10 m/s when t

hey collide head–on. If the resulting velocity of Car B after the collision is 8 m/s, what is the velocity of Car A after the collision?

Answer:

v_a = -10 m/s

so car A will move with speed 10 m/s in opposite direction

Explanation:

As we know that when two cars collide then the momentum of two cars will remains conserved

so here we have

P_i = P_f

mass of two cars = 100 kg

speed of car A = 8 m/s

speed of car B = - 10 m/s

after collision the speed of car B = +8 m/s

now by momentum conservation equation

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

so we have

100(8) + 100(-10) = 100(v_a) + 100(8)

so we have

v_a = -10 m/s

so car A will move with speed 10 m/s in opposite direction

A fixed 11.2-cm-diameter wire coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field 0.53 T pointing up. In 0.10 s , the field is changed to
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the wire, d = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.53 T

final magnetic field, B₂ = 0.24 T

time of change in magnetic field, t = 0.1 s

The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;

E = A(dB)/dt

where;

A is area of the coil = πr²

r is the radius of the wire coil = 0.112m / 2 = 0.056 m

A = π(0.056)²

A = 0.00985 m²

E = -0.00985(B₂-B₁)/t

E = 0.00985(B₁-B₂)/t

E = 0.00985(0.53 - 0.24)/0.1

E = 0.00985 (0.29)/ 0.1

E = 0.0286 V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V

Joe first focuses his attention (and his eyes) on the tree. The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be ______
kotykmax [81]

Answer: The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be LESS THAN the distance between the front and back of his eye.

Explanation:

The human eye the front part of the eye is the CORNEA. This is the tough white transparent part of the eye that helps in the refraction of light rays. While the backside of the eye is the RETINA. This is the part of the eye when images are focused.

When a normal eye is at rest, parallel rays from a distant object are focused on the retina. The ability of the eye - lens to focus points at different distances on the retina is known as accomodation. The adjustment of the eye lens to focus objects of varying distances is brought about by the ciliary muscles. The have the ability to change the shape of the eye which leads to change in focal length.

When a person with normal vision looks at a distant object at infinity, the lens brings parallel rays to focus on the retina. Thus, the furthest point which the eye can see distinctly is called the far point of the eye and it's infinity for a normal eye. But Joe was able to focus his eye on the tree, meaning that the tree was within his near point. This is the nearest point at which an object is clearly seen. Therefore, when the effective focal length of the cornea-lens system changes, it changes the location of the image of any object in one's field of view.
