Answer:

The speed of the cart and clay after the collision is 50 cm/s .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of lump , m = 500 g = 0.5 kg .

Velocity of lump , v = 30 cm/s .

Mass of cart , M = 1 kg .

Velocity of cart , V = 60 cm/s .

We know by conservation of momentum :

mv+MV=(m+M)v'

Here , v' is the speed of the cart and clay after the collision .

Putting all value in above equation .

We get :

0.5\times 30+1\times 60=(0.5+1)\times v'\\\\v'=\dfrac{15+60}{1.5}\\\\v'=50\ cm/s

Hence , this is the required solution .

A 5.0-μC charge is placed at the 0 cm mark of a meter stick and a -4.0 μC charge is placed at the 50 cm mark. At what point on a
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.

Explanation:

Given that

q₁ = 5 μ C

q₂ = - 4 μ C

The distance between charges = 50 cm

d= 50 cm

Lets take at distance x from the charge μ C ,the electrical field is zero.

That is why the distance from the charge - 4 μ C =  50 - x cm

We know that ,electric field is given as

E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}

K\dfrac{5\ \mu}{x^2}=K\dfrac{4\mu }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\dfrac{5}{x^2}=\dfrac{4 }{(50-x)^2}\\\\\\5(50-x)^2=4x^2\\(50-x)^2=0.8x^2\\\\50-x =0.89x\\\ x=\dfrac{50}{1.89}\ cm\\\\\\x=26.45\ cm\\

Therefore the distance from charge 5 μ C = 26.45 cm and the distance from - 4 μ C is 23.55 cm.

I which types of galaxy are globular clusters most likely to be found?
NemiM [27]
Globular clusters are very tightly bound by gravity, which gives them their spherical shapes and relatively high stellar densities toward their centers. The name of this category of star cluster is derived from the Latin globulus—a small sphere.
