A 2.9-kg cart is rolling across a frictionless, horizontal track toward a 1.4-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts

are loaded with strong magnets that cause them to attract one another. Thus, the speed of each cart increases. At a certain instant before the carts collide, the first cart's velocity is +4.7 m/s, and the second cart's velocity is −1.9 m/s. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer:

The question is incomplete. I will assume you intend to find the total momentum of the two carts during collision. Therefore, we can use the conservation of momentum principle to get the total momentum at a certain instant before collision.

Explanation:

The conservation of momentum principle states that the initial net momentum of two bodies before collision is equal to the final net momentum after collision.

In this case, let's denote the rolling cart as <em>'a'</em> and the stationary cart as <em>'b'</em>.

Momentum, P = MaVa +MbVb

P=(2.9)(+4.7) + (1.4)(-1.9)\\P= 13.68 + (-2.66)\\P= 13.68-2.66\\P=+11.02 Kg.m/s

Therefore, the total momentum before collision is 11.02 Kg.m/s.

Compare and contrast formation of with the formation of mgcl2
zalisa [80]

Answer: Both of the compounds contain primary bonding; however, the bonding is of different types. Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) contains ionic bonds, which are stronger and involve the complete transfer of electrons. Meanwhile, ethane (C₂H₆) also bonds by electron transfer but the electrons are not completely transferred from one atom to another. Instead, they are shared, forming what is known as a covalent bond.

Does a physicist studies cells and life cycles?
zepelin [54]
Hey there!

No, that would be a biologist. Biologists study biology, or life. They're focused on life cycles, cells, evolution, and so much more.

Physicists focus on physics. They learn about forces, motion, and the study of the universal forces like gravity, momentum, and speed. Just like mathematics, they study patterns and look for new discoveries to be found in the fields of science, physics, and even mathematics.

Hope this helps!

PLEASEEE HELPPP!!!!
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer: The work is 1863 N*m

Explanation:

We can define work as:

W = F*d

Where F is the force that the mover needs to apply to the refrigerator, and d is the distance that the refrigerator is moved.

To move the refrigerator, the minimal force that the mover needs to do is exactly the friction force (In this case, the refrigerator will move with constant speed).

Then we will have:

F = 230 N

and the distance is 8.1 meters, then the work will be:

W = 230N*8.1 m = 1863 N*m
