the answer is true because do your own experiment..for example: if the inside of your home is warmer than the outside/ smoking a cigarette by an open window wen it's cold outside, you will notice the cigarette smoke comes back inside, that is because doing this creates the opposite wanted effect. the temperature difference from inside -outside causes the cold air to b drawn to the warmer air therefore creating this effect. similar to lower concentrations moving to higher concentrations with h2o..hope this helps, unless I misunderstood??

Suppose a gliding 2-kg cart bumps into, and sticks to, a stationary 5-kg cart. If the speed of the gliding cart before the colli

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Therefore,

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision is

$v_{f}=4\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Glidding Cart = m₁ = 2 kg

Mass of Stationary Cart = m₂ = 5 kg

Initial velocity of Glidding Cart = u₁ = 14 m/s

Initial velocity of Stationary Cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

To Find:

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision = $v_{f}=?$

Solution:

Law of Conservation of Momentum:

For a collision occurring between two objects in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

It is denoted by "p" and given by

Momentum = p = mass × velocity

Hence by law of Conservation of Momentum we hame

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Here after collision both are stuck together so both will have same final velocity,

$m_{1}\times u_{1}+m_{2}\times u_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})\times v_{f}$

Substituting the values we get

$2\times 14 + 5\times 0 =(2+5)\times v_{f}$

$v_{f}=\dfrac{28}{7}=4\ m/s$

Therefore,

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision is

$v_{f}=4\ m/s$

You measure the power delivered by a battery to be 4.26 W when it is connected in series with two equal resistors. How much powe

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W</em>

Explanation:

Power through a circuit is given as

P = IV ....1

where P is the power

I is the current through the circuit

V is the voltage through the circuit

The voltage in a circuit is given as

V = IR ....2

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

$R_{t}$ = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

$\frac{1}{R_{t} }$ = $\frac{1}{R}$ +

$R_{t}$ = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

$\frac{2V}{R}$ ÷ $\frac{V}{2R}$ =

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

P = 4 x 4.26 = <em>17.04 W</em>
