A 66.0-kg boy and his 45.0-kg sister, both wearing roller blades, face each other at rest. The girl pushes the boy hard, sending

him backward with a velocity 2.80 m/s toward the west. Ignore friction. (a) Describe the subsequent motion of the girl.

Answer:

the girl moves towards right with a velocity of 4.1m/s

Explanation:

Since the system is isolated the momentum of the system is conserved

Initial momentum = Final Momentum

Since initially the system is at rest thus \overrightarrow{p_{i}}=0

Now the final momentum of boy = m_{boy}×velocity

\overrightarrow{p_{boy}}=66.0\times -2.80m/s\\\\\overrightarrow{p_{boy}}=-184.8kgm/s

Now for girl let the velocity = u hence her moumentum is 45\times u

Thus equating final momentum to zero we have

-184.8kgm/s+45\times u = 0

u=\frac{184.8}{45}m/s

hence u=4.1m/s

Thus the girl moves towards right with a velocity of 4.1m/s

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

<h2>0.069 N, in the X direction</h2>

Explanation:

According to Flemming's left hand rule, it sates that if the first three fingers of the left hand are held mutually at right angles to one another, the fore finger will point in the direction of magnetic field, the middle finger will point in direction of current, while the thumb will point to the direction of force.

Mathematically the law is stated as

F= BIL

given data

Magnetic field B=  0.43T

Current I= 4.9 A

length of conductor L= 3.3cm to meter , 3.3/100=  0.033 m

Applying the formula the force is calculated as

F= 0.43*4.9* 0.033= 0.069 N

According to Flemming's rule the direction of all parameters are mutually perpendicular to one another, then the Force is in the X direction
