Two car collide in an intersection. The speed limit in that zone is 30 mph. The car (mass of 1250 kg) was going 17.4 m/s (38.9).

The truck (2020 kg) t-boned the car in the middle of the intersection. The car was slowed down to only 6.7 m/s. The truck after colliding with the car was going 10.3 m/s. How fast did the truck go into the intersection?

Answer:

u₂ = 3.7 m/s

Explanation:

Here, we use the law of conservation of momentum, as follows:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\

where,

m₁ = mass of the car = 1250 kg

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2020 kg

u₁ = initial speed of the car before collision = 17.4 m/s

u₂ = initial speed of the tuck before collision = ?

v₁ = final speed of the car after collision = 6.7 m/s

v₂ = final speed of the truck after collision = 10.3 m/s

Therefore,

(1250\ kg)(17.4\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(u_2)=(1250\ kg)(6.7\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(10.3\ m/s)\\\\(2020\ kg)(u_2) = 8375\ N.s + 20806\ N.s - 21750\ N.s\\\\u_2=\frac{7431\ N.s}{2020\ kg}

<u>u₂ = 3.7 m/s</u>

State the success of j j Thompson model theory​
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Thomson's atomic model was successful in explaining the overall neutrality of the atom. However, its propositions were not consistent with the results of later experiments. In 1906, J. J. Thomson was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his theories and experiments on electricity conduction by gases.

Summary. J.J. Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of the atom, which had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

Explanation:

given data:

charge/ unit area= \sigma = 1.99*10^{-7} C/m^2

plate seperation = 1.69*10^{-2} m

we know that

electric field btwn the plates isE = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}

force acting on charge is F = q E

Work done by charge q id\Delta X =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}

this work done is converted into kinectic enerrgy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}

solving for v

v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta x}{\epsilon m}

\epsilon = 8.85*10^{-12} Nm2/C2

v = \sqrt{\frac{2 1.6*10^{-19}1.99*10^{-7}*1.69*10^{-2}}{8.85*10^{-12} *9.1*10^{-31}}

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

Which is true of magnetic field lines, but not electric field lines
Stels [109]

Answer:

B) they show which way iron shavings would align themselves

Explanation:

Let's analyze each statement:

A) they are not affected by their own source  --> this is true for both magnetic and electric fields. In fact, both fields are produced (and so affected) by a source (a magnet or a current in the magnetic field case, and an electric charge in the electric field case)

B) they show which way iron shavings would align themselves  --> this is only true for the magnetic field. In fact, the pieces of iron will align according to the magnetic field; however, since they are electrically neutral, they are not affected at all by an electric field.

C) they re stronger near the source and get weaker farther away   --> true for both magnetic and electric fields.

D) the closer the fields lines, the stronger the fields  --> also true for both magnetic and electric fields.

So, the correct answer is B.
