To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Momentum describing the inelastic collision of two bodies. By definition the collision between the two bodies is given as:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)V_f

Where,

m_{1,2}= Mass of each object

v_{1,2}= Initial Velocity of Each object

V_f= Final Velocity

Our values are given as

m_1 = 2190Kg

v_1 =10.5m/s

m_2 = 3220kg

V_f = 4.74m/s

Replacing we have that

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)V_f

(2190)(10.5)+(3220)v_2 = (2190+3220)(4.74)

v_2 = 0.8224m/s

Therefore the the velocity of the 3220 kg car before the collision was 0.8224m/s

Determine the inductive reactance for a 50 mH inductor that is across a 15 volt, 400 Hz source.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, L=50\ mH=0.05\ H

Voltage source, V = 15 volt

Frequency, f = 400 Hz

The inductive reactance of the circuit is equivalent to the impedance. It opposes the flow of electric current throughout the circuit. It is given by :

X_L=2\pi fL

X_L=2\pi \times 400\ Hz\times 0.05\ H

X_L=125.66\ \Omega

X_L=125.7\ \Omega

So, the inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ray of red light in air is incident at an angle of 30. on a
Vlad [161]

Answer:

20 degrees.

Explanation:

From Snell’s law of refraction:

sinθ1•n1 = sinθ2•n2

where θ1 is the incidence angle, θ2 is the refraction angle, n1 is the refraction index of light in medium1, and n2 is the refraction index for virgin olive oil. The incidence angle of the red light is θ1 = 30 degrees.

The red light is in air as medium1, so n1 (air) = 1.00029

So, to find θ2, the refracted angle:

sinθ1•1.00029 = sinθ2•1.464

sin(30)•1.00029 / 1.464 = sinθ2

0.5•1.00029 / 1.464 = sinθ2

sinθ2 = 0.3416291

θ2 = arcsin(0.3416291)

θ2 = 19.976 degrees

To the nearest degree,

θ2 = 20 degrees.

A ball traveling with an initial momentum of 5.1 kgm/s bounces off a wall and comes back in the opposite direction with a moment
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: Change in momentum=9.4kgm/s

Impulse=9.4kgm/s

Explanation:

Change in momentum=5.1-(-4.3)=5.1+4.3=9.4kgm/s

Impulse=Change in momentum

There impulse=9.4kgm/s
