Answer:

The mini Cooper will experience the greater force

Explanation:

Generally, a bulldozer has a greater mass compared to a Mini Cooper hence when both of these vehicles interact in an head on collision the Mini Cooper will experience a greater force because the bulldozer has a greater momentum

A frictionless cart of mass M is attached to a spring with spring constant k. When the cart is displaced 6 cm from its rest posi

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Time period of horizontal Oscillation = T = 2 $\pi$ $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Explanation:

Solution:

As we know that:

F = Kx

Here,

K = Spring constant

x = displacement.

First, they are displacing it with 6 cm from its rest position for which Time period of the oscillation is T = 2 seconds.

But next, they want to know the effect on the time period of the oscillation if the displacement x is doubled from 6cm to 12 cm.

First of all, let us see the equation of the time period of the oscillation.

We need to check, if time period does depend on the displacement or not.

As we know,

Time period of horizontal Oscillation = T = 2 $\pi$ $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Since, K is the constant for a particular spring, we need to change the mass of the cart to change the time period.

Hence the Time period will remain same.

One horsepower (hp) is the amount of power required to lift a 75-kg mass a vertical distance of 1 m in 1 s. What is 2 hp equival

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1470 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is used up. The S.I unit of power is Watt (W).

The expression for power is given as,

P = Energy/time

P = mgh/t ...................... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, h = height, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 75 kg, g =9.8 m/s², h = 1 m, t = 1 s.

Substitute into equation 1

P = (75×1×9.8)/1

P = 735 W.

From the above,

1 hp = 735 W

2 hp = (2×735) W

2 hp = 1470 W.

Hence 2 hp = 1470 W

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A) d_o = 20.7 cm

B) h_i = 1.014 m

Explanation:

A) To solve this, we will use the lens equation formula;

1/f = 1/d_o + 1/d_i

Where;

f is focal Length = 20 cm = 0.2

d_o is object distance

d_i is image distance = 6m

1/0.2 = 1/d_o + 1/6

1/d_o = 1/0.2 - 1/6

1/d_o = 4.8333

d_o = 1/4.8333

d_o = 0.207 m

d_o = 20.7 cm

B) to solve this, we will use the magnification equation;

M = h_i/h_o = d_i/d_o

Where;

h_o = 3.5 cm = 0.035 m

d_i = 6 m

d_o = 20.7 cm = 0.207 m

Thus;

h_i = (6/0.207) × 0.035

h_i = 1.014 m
