Using conservation of energy and momentum we get m1*v1=(m1+m2)*v2 so rearranging for v2 and plugging the given values in we get:
(200000kg*1.00m/s)/(21000kg)=.952m/s

A current cannot produce a magnetic field. *<br><br> True or false
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False, as a magnetic field is generated whenever current travels through a conductor.

An electromagnet consists of a coil of wire wrapped around a bar of iron. The coil and iron bar get magnetized when electric current flows through the wire. An electromagnet also has north and south magnetic poles. The magnetic field is strongest at either pole of the magnet.

Severus Snape knows that density of his powder is 3.00 g/cm3 . He also knows he needs 3.00 cm3 of this powder. What mass in gram
harina [27]

Answer:

He requires 1 gram of mass.

Explanation:

The density is defined as:

\rho = \frac{m}{V}  (1)

Where m is the mass and V is the volume.

Then, m can be isolated from equation 1 in order to determine the mass.

m = \rho \cdot V (2)

m = (3.00g/cm^{3})(3.00cm^{3})  

m = 1g  

Hence, he requires 1 gram of mass.

Find the mass of an object on planet F if its weight is 650 N (g = 13m/s^2)
Andrew [12]

Answer:

the object's mass is 50 kg

Explanation:

We use Newton's second law to solve for the mass:

F = m * a , then   m = F / a

In our case, the acceleration is the gravitational acceleration on the planet, and the force is the weight of the object on the planet. So we get:

m = w / a = 650 N / 13 m/s^2 = 50 kg

Then, the object's mass is 50 kg.

An automobile engine can produce 153 N · m of torque. Calculate the angular acceleration (in rad/s^2) produced if 85.2% of this
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

46.2 rad/s2

Explanation:

Angular acceleration works very similar to linear acceleration, it follows this equation:

\gamma = \frac{Mt}{J}

Where:

γ: angular acceleration

Mt: torque

J: moment of inertia of the load from its turning axis

Since we have the torque we just need the moment of inertia. We have to add together the moments of the drive shaft, tires, wheel walls and wheels.

The wheels act like disks. For disks the moment of inertia is:

J = \frac{1}{2} * m * r^2

Jwheel = \frac{1}{2} = 15 * 0.18^2 = 0.243 kg*m^2

The wheel walls act like annular rings, for these the moment of inertia is:

J = \frac{1}{2} * m * (re^2 - ri^2)

Jwall = \frac{1}{2} * 2 * (0.32^2 - 0.18^2) = 0.07 kg * m^2

The tread acts like a hoop, as in mass concentrated into a circunference, for these:

J = m * r^2

Jtread = 10 * 0.33^2 = 1.09 kg*m^2

The axle acts like a rod, which is the same as the disk:

Jaxle = \frac{1}{2} * 14.1 * 0.02^2 = 0.0028 kg*m^2

The drive shaft acts like a rod too:

Jshaft = \frac{1}{2} * 31.7 * 0.032^2 = 0.016 kg*m^2

SO, the total moment of inertia is:

J = 2*Jwheel + 2*Jwall + 2*Jtread + Jaxle + Jshaft

J = 2*0.243 + 2*0.07 + 2*1.09 + 0.0028 + 0.016 = 2.82 kg*m2

Finally the angular acceleration is:

\gamma = \frac{0.852 * 153}{2.82} = 46.2 \frac{rad}{s^2}
