7. A locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car

(with its load) is 37,000 kg. If the train is accelerating at 0.22m/s2 on a level track, what is the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars

Answer:

N 138380

Explanation:

Force = ma where m is the mass in kg and a is acceleration

the locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars mass of each car is 37 000 kg

the train accelerating at 0.22 m/s²

the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars = the tension between the second and third cars pulling the third car to the 19 th car = 17 × 37000 kg × 0.22 m/s² = N 138380

Answer:

9 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is mass times velocity.

p = mv

36 kgm/s = m (4 m/s)

m = 9 kg

What is a good scientific question on a baloon powered car? (it's for my science fair)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

<u>Answer: </u>

Balloon powered car works on the principle of Newtons III law. Escaping air from the balloon, the car accelerates forward. The reaction is the air behind the car, pushing against it, and with the same force car moves forward is the action.

<em>Some scientific questions are:</em>

1. What is the energy stored in the balloon?

Ans: Potential energy (Potential energy is stored in elastic balloon)

2. Which energy is used in balloon-powered car?

Ans: Kinetic energy. (Whenever the balloon escapes the air, potential energy is converted into Kinetic energy)

3. What is the principle involved in balloon powered car?

Ans: Newtons III law.

An alternative to CFL bulbs and incandescent bulbs are light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs. A 16-W LED bulb can replace a 100-W inc
Yanka [14]

Answer:

LED bulb = 0.145 A

Incandescent bulb = 0.909 A

CFL bulb = 0.218 A

Explanation:

Given:

Power rating of LED bulb (P₁) = 16 W

Power rating of incandescent bulb (P₂) = 100 W

Power rating of CFL bulb (P₃) = 24 W

Terminal voltage across the circuit (V) = 110 V

We know that, power is related to terminal voltage and current drawn as:

P=VI

Express this in terms of 'I'. This gives,

I=\frac{P}{V}

Now, calculate the current drawn in each bulb using their respective values.

For LED bulb, P_1=16\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_1=\frac{16\ W}{110\ V}=0.145\ A

For incandescent bulb, P_2=100\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_2=\frac{100\ W}{110\ V}=0.909\ A

For CFL bulb, P_3=24\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_3=\frac{24\ W}{110\ V}=0.218\ A

Therefore, the currents drawn through LED bulb, incandescent bulb and CFL bulb are 0.145 A, 0.909 A and 0.218 A respectively.

An electric field of 8.20 ✕ 105 V/m is desired between two parallel plates, each of area 25.0 cm2 and separated by 2.45 mm. Ther
astraxan [27]

Answer:

q = 1.815 \times 10^{-8} C

Charge on one plate is positive in nature and on the other plate it is negative in nature.

Explanation:

E = 8.20 x 10^5 V/m, A = 25 cm^2, d = 22.45 mm

According to the Gauss's theorem in electrostatics

The electric field between the two plates

E = \frac{\sigma }{\varepsilon _{0}}

{\sigma }= E \times {\varepsilon _{0}}

{\sigma }= 8.20 \times 10^{5} \times {8.854 \times 10^{-12}

{\sigma }= 7.26 \times 10^{-6} C/m^{2}

Charge, q = surface charge density x area

q = 7.26 \times 10^{-6} \times 25 \times 10^{-4}

q = 1.815 \times 10^{-8} C
