Answer:
The velocity of the launcher after the projectile is launched is -5.011 m/s
Explanation:
Here we have the mass of the cannon and cart, m₁ = 4.65 kg
Velocity of cannon and cart, v₁ = 2.00 m/s
Mass of projectile, m₂ = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg
Velocity of projectile, v₂ = 647 m/s
Velocity of the launcher, v₃ = Required
Mass of cannon and cart, launcher after launching projectile m₃ = 4.65-0.05
= 4.6 kg
Therefore, from the principle of the conservation of linear momentum, we have
Total initial momentum = Total final momentum
m₁ × v₁ = m₂ × v₂ + m₃ × v₃
Substituting gives
4.65 kg × 2.00 m/s = 0.05 kg × 647 m/s + 4.6 kg × v₃
4.65 kg × 2.00 m/s - 0.05 kg × 647 m/s = 4.6 kg × v₃
-23.05 kg·m/s = 4.6 kg × v₃
v₃ = -5.011 m/s.
Answer:
7.9060 m²
8.57 Volts
5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule
1.2×10⁻⁶ Coulomb
Explanation:
C = Capacitance between plates = 0.14 μF = 0.14×10⁻⁶ F
d = Distance between plates = 0.5 mm = 0.5×10⁻³ m
Q = Charge = 1.2 μC = 1.2×10⁻⁶ C
ε₀ = Permittivity = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m
Capacitance
∴ Area of each plate is 7.9060 m²
Voltage
∴ Potential difference between the plates if the capacitor is charged to 1.2 μC is 8.57 Volts.
Energy stored
E=0.5CV²
⇒E = 0.5×0.14×10⁻⁶×8.57²
⇒E = 5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule
∴ Stored energy is 5.142×10⁻⁶ Joule
Charge
Q = CV
⇒Q = 0.14×10⁻⁶×8.57
⇒Q = 1.2×10⁻⁶ C
∴ Charge the capacitor carries before a spark occurs between the two plates is 1.2×10⁻⁶ Coulomb
