Conservation of Momentum Practice

Physics
1 answer:
Yakvenalex [24]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Before: 0 m/s  

After: -4 m/s

Explanation:

Before: Since you and your beau started at rest, your beau initial velocity is 0 m/s.

After: Since we have to conserve momentum,

momentum before push = momentum after push.

The momentum before push = 0 (since you and your beau are at rest)

momentum after push = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ were m₁ = your mass = 60 kg, v₁ = your velocity after push = 3 m/s, m₂ = beau's mass = 45 kg and v₂ = beau's velocity.

So, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = 0

m₁v₁ = -m₂v₂

v₂ = -m₁v₁/m₂ = -60 kg × 3 m/s ÷ 45 kg = -4 m/s

So beau moves with a velocity of 4 m/s in the opposite direction

The graph above shows the position x as a function of time for the center of mass of a system of particles of total mass 6. 0 kg
kumpel [21]

The resulting change in momentum of the system will be +18.6 Ns. The momentum is conserved.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

The given data in the problem is;

m is the mass =6.0 kg

t is the time interval=2 second

From Newton's second law;

\rm \triangle P =m \triangle V \\\\ \triangle P= m(\frac{\triangle x}{\triangle t} )\\\\

From the graph;

\rm \triangle t = 2sec\\\\ \triangle x = (12-8) m

The change in the momentum is;

\rm \triangle P = m\tr(\frac{v-u}{t}) \\\\ \triangle P =9.3 \times \frac{12-8}{2} \\\\ \triangle P= +18.6 \  N.s

Hence, the resulting change in momentum of the system will be +18.6 Ns.

Which is the best definition of a parallel
Oksanka [162]

A parallel circuit exists when an electric charge flows in more than one path best describes it.

<h3>What is a Parallel circuit?</h3>

This type of circuit has branches in which the current divides and only part of it flows through any of the branch.

Parallel circuit having more than one branch therefore means that electric charge will flow in more than one path thereby making option A the most appropriate choice.

is dimensionally correct relation necessarily to be a correct physical relation? explain with example.​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: hope it helps you...❤❤❤❤

Explanation: If your values have dimensions like time, length, temperature, etc, then if the dimensions are not the same then the values are not the same. So a “dimensionally wrong equation” is always false and cannot represent a correct physical relation.

No, not necessarily.

For instance, Newton’s 2nd law is  F=p˙ , or the sum of the applied forces on a body is equal to its time rate of change of its momentum. This is dimensionally correct, and a correct physical relation. It’s fine.

But take a look at this (incorrect) equation for the force of gravity:

F=−G(m+M)Mm√|r|3r  

It has all the nice properties you’d expect: It’s dimensionally correct (assuming the standard traditional value for  G ), it’s attractive, it’s symmetric in the masses, it’s inverse-square, etc. But it doesn’t correspond to a real, physical force.

It’s a counter-example to the claim that a dimensionally correct equation is necessarily a correct physical relation.

A simpler counter example is  1=2 . It is stating the equality of two dimensionless numbers. It is trivially dimensionally correct. But it is false.

All charged objects exert a force that can cause other charges to move. What is the force that
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

exerts force

Explanation:

The accumulation of excess electric charge on an object is called static electricity. ... An electric field surrounds every electric charge and exerts the force that causes other electric charges to attract or repel. Electric fields are represented by arrows showing the electric field would make a positive charge move.
