Answer:

  • The initial speed of the truck is 21.93 m/s, and the initial speed of the car is 19.524 m/s  

Explanation:

We can use conservation of momentum to find the initial velocities.

Taking the unit vector \hat{i} pointing north and \hat{j} pointing east, the final velocity will be

\vec{V}_f = 16.0 \frac{m}{s} \ ( \ cos(24.0 \°) \ , \ sin (24.0 \°) \ )

\vec{V}_f = ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

The final linear momentum will be:

\vec{P}_f = (m_{car}+ m_{truck}) * V_f

\vec{P}_f = (950 \ kg \ + 1900 \ kg \ ) *  ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

\vec{P}_f = (2.850 \ kg \ ) *  ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

\vec{P}_f = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )

As there are not external forces, the total linear momentum must be constant.

So:

\vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f

As initially the car is travelling east, and the truck is travelling north, the initial linear momentum must be

\vec{P}_0= ( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} ) 

so:

 \vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f 

( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} ) = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )  

so

\left \{ {{m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}  } \atop {m_{car} \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} }} \right.

So, for the truck

m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}

1900 \ kg \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}

v_{truck} = \frac{41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}}{1900 \ kg}

v_{truck} = \frac{41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}}{1900 \ kg}

v_{truck} = 21.93 \frac{m}{s}

And, for the car

950 \ kg \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}

v_{car}=\frac{18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}}{950 \ kg}

v_{car}=19.524 \frac{m}{s}

A 19 nC charge is moved in a uniform electric field. The electric field does 5.3 μJ of work as the charge moves from point A to
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The potential difference between points A and B is 278.95 volts.

The potential difference between points B and C is -642.10 volts.

The potential difference between points A and C is -363.15 volts.

Explanation:

Given :

Charge of the particle, q = 19 nC = 19 x 10⁻⁹ C

Work is done to move a charge from point A to B, W₁ = 5.3 μJ

Work done to move a charge from point B to C, W₂ = -12.2 μJ

Let V₁ be the potential difference between point A and B, V₂ be the potential difference between point B and C and V₃ be the potential difference between point A and C.

The relation between work done and potential difference is:

W = qV  

V = W/q    ....(1)

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points A and B is:

V_{1}=\frac{W_{1} }{q}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

V_{1} =\frac{5.3\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }

V₁ = 278.95 V

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points B and C is:

V_{2}=\frac{W_{2} }{q}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

V_{2} =\frac{-12.2\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }

V₂ = -642.10 V

The potential difference between points A and C is:

V₃ = V₁ + V₂

V₃ = 278.95 - 642.10

V₃ = -363.15 V
