Answer:

A) The smaller object; B) The larger object

Explanation:

A) Lets say the small object is 2 kg and the large one is 6 kg. Lets say they also have 30 kg*m/s of momentum each. The small object would have 15 m/s velocity and the large would have 5 m/s.

Now for kinetic energy(.5*m*v²), the small object is .5*2*15², which is 225 J

The large object is .5*6*5², which is 75 J, so the smaller object has more Kinetic energy. Since velocity is squared, it is more important than how large mass is.

B) Same masses as part A. Lets say the kinetic energy is 45 J for both of them. For the small object, 45=.5*2*v²

.5*2 is 1, so 45/1 is 45. Take the square root and we get v= 6.71 m/s

For the large object, 45=.5*6*v²

.5*6 is 3, so 45/3 is 15. Take the square root and we get v=3.87 m/s

Now we plug the velocities into p=mv

For the small object, p=2*6.71, which gives us p=13.42 kg*m/s

For the large object, p=6*3.87, which gives us p=23.22 kg*m/s

The larger object has the larger momentum.

Hope this helps

An object is at rest in front of a compressed spring. It travels over a surface that exerts a kinetic frictional force on it and
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

the object will travel 0.66 meters before to stop.

Explanation:

Using the energy conservation theorem:

E_i+K_i+W_f=K_f+U_f

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d\\W_f=0.35*4*9.81*d\\W_f=13.7d[J]

so:

\frac{1}{2}1800*(10*10^{-2})+0-13.7d=0+0\\d=0.66m

An object is 15 cm in front of a diverging lens with a
Rainbow [258]

A) See ray diagram in attachment (-6.0 cm)

By looking at the ray diagram, we see that the image is located approximately at a distance of 6-7 cm from the lens. This can be confirmed by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}

where

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f = -10 cm is the focal length (negative for a diverging lens)

p = 15 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Solving for q,

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{-10 cm}-\frac{1}{15 cm}=-0.167 cm^{-1}

q=\frac{1}{-0.167 cm^{-1}}=-6.0 cm

B) The image is upright

As we see from the ray diagram, the image is upright. This is also confirmed by the magnification equation:

h_i = - h_o \frac{q}{p}

where h_i, h_o are the size of the image and of the object, respectively.

Since q < 0 and p > o, we have that h_i >0, which means that the image is upright.

C) The image is virtual

As we see from the ray diagram, the image is on the same side of the object with respect to the lens: so, it is virtual.

This is also confirmed by the sign of q in the lens equation: since q < 0, it means that the image is virtual

A 5.00 kg crate is on a 21.0 degree hill. Using X-Y axes tilted down the plane, what is the y-component of the normal force?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the crate, m = 5 kg

Angle with hill, \theta=21^{\circ}

We need to find the y component of the normal force. We know that the y component of the normal force is given by :

F_y=F\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=mg\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=5\times 9.8\ \cos(21)\\\\F_y=45.74\ N

So, the y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
