Six automobiles are initially traveling at the indicated velocities. The automobiles have different masses and velocities. The d

rivers step on the brakes and all automobiles are brought to rest.
Car A: 500 kg, 10 m/s,
Car B: 2000 kg, 5 m/s,
Car C: 500 kg, 20 m/s,
Car D: 1000 kg, 20 m/s,
Car E: 4000 kg, 5 m/s, and
Car F: 1000 kg, 10 m/s.
(a) Rank these automobiles based on the magnitude of their momentum before the brakes are applied, from largest to smallest.
(b) Rank these automobiles based on the magnitude of the impulse needed to stop them, from largest to smallest.

Answer:

a)Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

b)Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

Explanation:

Car A: mass = 500 kg; speed = 10 m/s

Car B: mass = 2000 kg;speed = 5 m/s

Car C:mass = 500 kg; speed = 20 m/s

Car D: mass = 1000 kg; speed = 20 m/s

Car E:mass = 4000 kg; speed = 5 m/s

Car F: mass = 1000 kg; speed = 10 m/s

Part a) Now we know that momentum of each car is product of mass and velocity , so we will have

<em>CarA:</em>

P_1 = m \times v\\P_1 = (500)(10)\\P_1 = 5 \times 10^3 kg m/s

<em>Car B:</em>

P_2 = m v\\P_2 = (2000)(5)\\P_2 = 10^4 kg m/s

Car C:

P_3 = m v\\P_3 = (500)(20)\\P_3 = 10^4 kg m/s

Car D:

P_4 = m v\\P_4 = (1000)(20)\\P_4 = 2\times 10^4 kg m/s

Car E:

P_5 = m v\\P_5 = (4000)(5)\\P_5 = 2\times 10^4 kg m/s

Car F:

P_6 = m v\\P_6 = (1000)(10)\\P_6 = 10^4 kg m/s

So the momentum is given as ,

Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

Part b)Impulse is given as change in momentum so here we can say that final momentum of all the cars will be zero as they all stops and hence the impulse is same as initial momentum of the car

so the order of impulse from largest to least is given as

Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

An object is placed on a surface. A student tries to apply various combinations of forces on the object. Which pair of forces wi
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, as there are no diagrams or options to provide more information to the question.

The general explanation is as follows:

For the object not to move

(1): The forces acting on the object must opposite each other. i.e. if force A acts at the right (or positive direction), force B will act at the left (or negative direction).

(2) The two forces must be equal.

So, for instance:

If the pair of forces are 5N and 5N in opposite directions, the object wil not move.

However, if one of the forces is greater, the object will move towards the direction of the greater force.
