On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.254 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.367 kg ), which is ini

irinina [24]

Answer:

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.

Being $m_a$ and $m_b$ the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is

$M_1=m_av_a+m_bv_b$

Since b is initially at rest

$M_1=m_av_a$

After the collision and being $v'_a$ and $v'_b$ the respective velocities, the total momentum is

$M_2=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Both momentums are equal, thus

$m_av_a=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Solving for $v_a$

$v_a=\frac{m_av'_a+m_bv'_b}{m_a}$

$v_a=\frac{0.254Kg\times (-0.123 m/s)+0.367Kg (0.651m/s)}{0.254Kg}$

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a^2$

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.254Kg) (0.8176m/s)^2=0.0849 J$

The final kinetic energy is

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a'^2+\frac{1}{2}m_bv_b'^2$

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}0.254Kg (-0.123m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}0.367Kg (0.651m/s)^2=0.07969 J$

The change of kinetic energy is

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

What is the magnitude of the electric force between a proton and an electron when they are at a distance of 4.09 angstrom from e

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$F=1.38*10^{-9}N$

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}$

Here k is the Coulomb constant. In this case, we have $q_1=-e$ , $q_2=e$ and $d=4.09*10^-10m$ . Replacing the values:

$F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-1.6*10^{-19}C)(1.6*10^{-19}C)}{(4.09*10^{-10})^2}\\F=-1.38*10^{-9}N$

The negative sign indicates that it is an attractive force. So, the magnitude of the electric force is:

$F=1.38*10^{-9}N$

How do motors use energy? Do they convert electrical energy into mechanical energy OR mechanical energy into electrical energy?

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy

Explanation:

A motor uses electrical energy to create mechanical energy by creating magnetic fields causing the motor to spin. A generator is the opposite and converts mechanical into electrical by spinning a motor in a magnetic field.
