A 1000-kilogram car traveling due east at 15 meters per second hit from behind and receives a forward impulse of 6000 newton-sec

strojnjashka [21]

The change in momentum of the car is 6000 kg m/s

Explanation:

According to the impulse theorem, the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse exerted on the object, therefore:

$\Delta p = I$

where

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum

I is the impulse exerted

For the car in this problem, the impulse received is

I = 6000 kg m/s (in the forward direction)

Therefore, the change in momentum of the car is equal to this value:

$\Delta p = I = 6000 kg m/s$ (in the forward direction)

We can also calculate what is the new momentum of the car. In fact, the initial momentum is

$p_i = mu = (1000 kg)(15 m/s)=15,000 kg m/s$

And so, the new momentum is

$p_f = p_i + \Delta p = 15,000 + 6,000 = 21,000 kg m/s$

The direction of the force on a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field is

Bess [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

The forces acting on a conductor carrying current placed in a magnetic field is analysed using the Fleming's left hand rule.

The rule states that "If the fire finger, the middle finger and the thumb are held mutually perpendicular to one another in a magnetic field, the fore finger acts in the direction of the magnetic field, the middle finger acts on the direction of the current while the thumb acts in the direction of the force.

Based on the rule, it can be inferred this current carrying wire placed in the magnetic field acts perpendicular to the magnetic field and force acting on the wire.
