Answer:

C) 20 m/s

Explanation:

The collision of the car and truck will give a single resultant velocity due to equal masses.

We'll treat this question as a vector question.

The velocity profile will form a right angle triangle.

To calculate the velocity of the car

Let the velocity be x

Sina = x/28

Sin46= x/28

0.7193*28 = x

20 = x

X = 20 m/s

Consider a magnetic force acting on an electric charge in a uniform magnetic field. Which of the following statements are true?
NISA [10]

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting on the charged particle in magnetic field is given by :

F=qvB\ \sin\theta

Here,

q is the charged particle

v is the speed of particle

B is magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the v and B.

The correct statements for the magnetic force are :

  • An electric charge moving perpendicular to a magnetic field experiences a magnetic force. In this case, \theta=90^{\circ}. It will experience maximum force.
  • The direction of the magnetic force acting on a moving electric charge in a magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of motion.
  • A magnetic force is exerted on an electric charge moving through a uniform magnetic field.
  • The direction of the magnetic force acting on a moving charge in a magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field.

Part e a small toy cart equipped with a spring bumper rolls toward a wall with a speed of v. the cart rebounds from the wall, wi
jeka94

Answer:

Δp = -2 p₀

Explanation:

The momentum is defined by

         p = m v

In this case we write the initial and final momentum, we take as positive the direction towards the wall.

         p₀ = m v

         p_f = m (-v)

the negative sign is because the car is bouncing off the wall

the change of the moment is

       Δp = p_f - p₀

        Δp = - m v - m v

        Δp = -2 mv

        Δp = -2 p₀

we see that the change of moment is twice the moment, in the attachment we can see the vectors of these changes and the sign indicates the direction of the change at the moment
