A freight car moves along a friction less level railroad track at constant speed. The car is open on top. A large load of coal i

s suddenly dumped into the car. What happens to the velocity of the car?

Answer:

The velocity of the freight car decreases.

Explanation:

This question is answered by the conservation of momentum principle.

When the freight car is moving at a certain speed, it has a constant momentum.

We will call this M1.

The equation for M1 will be:

M1 = Mass * Speed

Now when the coal is dumped into the freight car, the Mass increases.

Since conservation of momentum states that the momentum will remain the same. We have:

M1 = (Mass of freight + Mass of coal) * Speed

Since M1 is constant, if the mass increases, the speed had to decrease to keep the equation true.

__________ research is designed to measure the association between variables that are not manipulated by the researcher.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Option c. Correlational

Explanation:

Correlational research is basically a method of carrying out a research where an experiment can not be conducted and where a researcher has to figure out that whether the two variable are in association with each other and if these are related then in what way the association between these two exists without any manipulation from the researcher's end.

It seeks to understand, measure and make assessment of the relationship or  

association between these variables but can not find out if a variable is caused by the other variable.

Which of the following choices correctly identifies the process created by moving a magnet through a conducting loop?
jolli1 [7]

Answer: D.) electromagnetic induction

Explanation: Electroctromagnetic induction may be explained as a process whereby electric current is induced or produced by difference in potential resulting from the movement of conductor across a magnetic field.

In simple terms, an electromotive force is induced when a magnet is moved through a conducting loop.

The electromotive force produced by moving a magnet through a conducting loop can be represented by the relation:

E = - N (dΦ / dt)

Where E = electromotive force in voltage

N = number of loop in conductor

dΦ = change in magnetic Flux

dt = change in time
