Given:

Mass of the rail road car, m = 2 kg

velocity of the three cars coupled system, v' = 1.20 m/s

velocity of first car, v_{a} = 3 m/s

Solution:

a) Momentum of a body of mass 'm' and velocity 'v' is given by:

p = mv

Now for the coupled system according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum of a system before and after collision remain conserved:

mv_{a} + 2mv_{b} = (m + 2m)v'                        (1)

where,

v_{a} = velocity of the first car

v_{b} = velocity of the 2 coupled cars after collision

Now, from eqn (1)

v' = \frac{v_{a} + 2v_{b}}{3}

v' = \frac{3.00 + 2\times 1.20}}{3}

v' = 1.80 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the combined car system after collision is 1.80 m/s

The form of energy that can move from place to place across the universe is . On Earth, the main source of this energy is .
serg [7]

The form of energy that can move from place to place across the universe is light energy. On earth, the main source of this energy is Sun. Most of the light energy comes from the sun because it is the primary source of all the energies. The food, fossil fuels, movement of winds, etc all exists due to Sun. Without sun, there won't be any light energy on the earth. In all the processes which occur on earth has a direct or indirect involvement of light energy which comes from sun.

Your little sister is building a radio from scratch. Plans call for a 500 μH inductor wound on a cardboard tube. She brings you
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

N = 195 turns

Explanation:

The inductance of the inductor, L = 500 μH = 500 * 10⁻⁶H

The length of the tube, l = 12 cm = 0.12 m

The diameter of the tube, d = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Radius, r = 0.04/2 = 0.02 m

Area of the tube, A = πr² = 0.02²π = 0.0004π m²

\mu_{0} = 4\pi * 10^{-7}

The inductance of a solenoid is given by:

L = \frac{\mu_{0}N^{2} A }{l}

500 * 10^{-6} = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}  N^{2} *4\pi  *10^{-4}  }{0.12}\\500 * 10^{-6} = 0.00000001316N^{2} \\N^{2} = \frac{500 * 10^{-6}}{0.00000001316}\\N^{2} = 37995.44\\N = \sqrt{37995.44} \\N = 194.92 turns

A long solenoid that has 1,130 turns uniformly distributed over a length of 0.430 m produces a magnetic field of magnitude 1.00
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Given Information:

Number of turns = N = 1130 turns

Length of solenoid = L = 0.430 m

Magnetic field = B =  1.0x10⁻⁴ T

Required Information:

Current = I = ?

Answer:

I = 0.0302 A

Explanation:

The current flowing in the solenoid winding can be found using

I = BL/μ₀N

Where μ₀ is the permeability of free space, N is the number of turns, B is the magnetic field and L is the length of solenoid

I = 1.0x10⁻⁴*0.430/4πx10⁻⁷ *1130

I = 0.0302 A

or

I = 30.28 mA
