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.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

12500(kg*m/s)

Explanation:

F=ma=mv/t=p/t

p=F*t=500N*25 s=12500(kg*m/s)

niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 k. its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field
Furkat [3]

Niobium wire with a 2.60 mm diameter has a maximum current capacity of 500 A while still remaining superconducting.

<h3>Describe the present.</h3>

Current is the rate at which charge passes from one point on a circuit to another. In a circuit, a significant current flows when several coulombs or charge pass over the cross section of a wire. When the charge carriers are firmly packed inside the wire, high currents can be generated at low speeds.

<h3>What do current and electron actually mean?</h3>

Electron movement is referred to as electron current. The positive terminal receives electrons that are released by the negative terminal. Traditional current, usually referred to as just current, exhibits behavior consistent with positive charge carriers being the source of current flow. Regular current is received at the positive end and then flows to a negative terminal.

Which velocity-time graph matches the position-time graph?
skelet666 [1.2K]

The answer is Graph C. To explain, this is because as we look at the position vs time graph, we see that after the first second, it was 30 meters from the start. That would mean that it took 1 second to get to 30 meters. That is shown in Graph c

The sum of the kinetic and potential energies of a system of objects is conserved: Group of answer choices only when no external
uysha [10]

The sum of the kinetic and potential energies of a system of objects is conserved only when no external force acts on the objects.

<h3>Conservation of mechanical energy</h3>

The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that the total mechanical energy of an isolated system (absence of external force) is always constant.

M.A = P.E + K.E

where;

P.E is potential energy

K.E is kinetic energy

Thus, the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of a system of objects is conserved only when no external force acts on the objects.
