A boxcar at a rail yard is set into motion at the top of a hump. The car rolls down quietly and without friction onto a straight

, level track where it couples with a flatcar of smaller mass, originally at rest, so that the two cars then roll together without friction. Consider the two cars as a system from the moment of release of the boxcar until both are rolling together. (a) is the mechanical energy of the system conserved? (b) is the momentum of this system conserved? Next, consider only the process of the boxcar gaining speed as it rolls down the hump. Consider the boxcar and the Earth as a system. (a) is the mechanical energy of the system conserved? (b) is the momentum of this system conserved? Finally, consider the two cars as a system as the boxcar is slowing down in the coupling process. (a) is the mechanical energy of the system conserved? (b) is the momentum of this system conserved?

A man fires a silver bullet of mass 2g with a velocity of200m/sec into wall. What is the temperature changeof the bullet? Note:
Sphinxa [80]

F=nmv

where;

n=no. of bullets = 1

m=mass of bullets=2g *10^-3

V=velocity of bullets200m/sec

F=1

loss in Kinetic energy=gain in heat energy

1/2MV^2=MS∆t

let M council M

=1/2V^2=S∆t

M=2g

K.E=MV^2/2

=(2*10^-3)(200)^2/2

2 councils 2

2*10^-3*4*10/2

K.E=40Js

H=mv∆t

(40/4.2)

40Js=40/4.2=mc∆t

40/4.2=2*0.03*∆t

=158.73°C

Early black-and-white television sets used an electron beam to draw a picture on the screen. The electrons in the beam were acce
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

speed of electrons = 3.25 × 10^{7} m/s

acceleration in term g is 3.9 × 10^{17} g.

radius of circular orbit is 2.76 × 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

given data

voltage = 3 kV

magnetic field = 0.66 T

solution

law of conservation of energy

PE = KE

qV = 0.5 × m × v²

v = \sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\times 3}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

v = 3.25 × 10^{7} m/s

and

magnetic force on particle movie in magnetic field

F = Bqv

ma = Bqv

a = \frac{Bqv}{m}  

a =  \frac{0.67\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.25\times 10^7}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a = 3.82 × 10^{18} m/s²

and acceleration in term g

a = \frac{3.82\times 10^{18}}{9.81}  

a = 3.9 × 10^{17} g

acceleration in term g is 3.9 × 10^{17} g.

and

electron moving in circular orbit has centripetal force

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}  

Bqv = \frac{mv^2}{r}  

r = \frac{mv}{Bq}  

r = \frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.25\times 10^7}{0.67\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}  

r = 2.76 × 10^{-4} m

radius of circular orbit is 2.76 × 10^{-4} m
