A cart traveling at 0.3 m/s collides with stationary object. After the collision, the cart rebounds in the opposite direction. T

he same cart again traveling at 0.3 m/s collides with a different stationary object. This time the cart is at rest after the collision. In which collision is the impulse on the cart greater?
A. The first collision.

B. Cannot be determined without knowing the rebound speed of the first collision.

C. The second collision.

D. Cannot be determined without knowing the mass of the cart.

E. The impulses are the same.

The first collision because a greater amount of momentum must be taken and used in order to push the cart back, giving it a greater mass and impulse

Why do objects move at constant speed

kati45 [8]

Most objects move at a constant speed because of friction and acceleration. The constant speed keeps them in place, and keeps a balance.

In an LC circuit at one time the charge stored by the capacitor is 10 mC and the current is 3.0 A. If the frequency of the circu

Ronch [10]

Answer:

$i_2=3.61\ A$

Explanation:

<u>LC Circuit</u>

It's a special circuit made of three basic elements: The AC source, a capacitor, and an inductor. The charge, current, and voltage are oscillating when there is an interaction between the electric and magnetic fields of the elements. The following variables will be used for the formulas:

$q, q_1, q_2$ = charge of the capacitor in any time $t, t_1, t_2$

$q_o$ = initial charge of the capacitor

$\omega$ =angular frequency of the circuit

$i, i_1, i_2$ = current through the circuit in any time $t, t_1, t_2$

The charge in an LC circuit is given by

$q(t) = q_0 \, cos (\omega t )$

The current is the derivative of the charge

$\displaystyle i(t) = \frac{dq(t)}{dt} = - \omega q_0 \, sin(\omega t).$

We are given

$q_1=10\ mc=0.01\ c, i_1=3\ A,\ q_2=6\ mc=0.006\ c\ ,\ f=\frac{1000}{4\pi}$

It means that

$q(t_1) = q_0 \, cos (\omega t_1 )=q_1\ .......[eq 1]$

$i(t_1) = - \omega q_0 \, sin(\omega t_1)=i_1.........[eq 2]$

From eq 1:

$\displaystyle cos (\omega t_1 )=\frac{q_1}{q_0}$

From eq 2:

$\displaystyle sin(\omega t_1)=-\frac{i_1}{\omega q_0}$

Squaring and adding the last two equations, and knowing that

$sin^2x+cos^2x=1$

$\displaystyle \left ( \frac{q_1}{q_0} \right )^2+\left ( \frac{i_1}{\omega q_0} \right )^2=1$

Operating

$\displaystyle \omega^2q_1^2+i_1^2=\omega^2q_o^2$

Solving for $q_o$

$\displaystyle q_o=\frac{\sqrt{\omega^2q_1^2+i_1^2}}{\omega}$

Now we know the value of $q_0$ , we repeat the procedure of eq 1 and eq 2, but now at the second time $t_2$ , and solve for $i_2$

$\displaystyle \omega^2q_2^2+i_2^2=\omega^2q_o^2$

Solving for $i_2$

$\displaystyle i_2=w\sqrt{q_o^2-q_2^2}$

Now we replace the given values. We'll assume that the placeholder is a pi for the frequency, i.e.

$\displaystyle f=\frac{1}{4\pi}\ KHz$

$w=2\pi f=500\ rad/s$

$\displaystyle q_o=\frac{\sqrt{(500)^2(0.01)^2+3^2}}{500}$

$q_0=0.01166\ c$

Finally

$\displaystyle i_2=500\sqrt{0.01166^2-.006^2}$

$i_2=5\ A$

Check the dimensional consistencies of s =vot+1/2at2

Leni [432]

Answer:

s is distance so it's dimensions become L.

Nd other side we have ut+1\2at^2.

as 1\2 is a constant it will have dimensions and apply the dimensions to other quantities.

on solving u will get L there also i,e ur LHS = RHS.

thus the equation is dimensionally consistent.

Suppose you are pushing a 3 kg box with a force of 25 N (directed parallel to the ground) over a distance of 15 m. Afterward, th

alex41 [277]

Answer: 321 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the box $m=3\ kg$

Force applied is $F=25\ N$

Displacement of the box is $s=15\ m$

Velocity acquired by the box is $v=6\ m/s$

acceleration associated with it is $a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{25}{3}\ m/s^2$

Work done by force is $W=F\cdot s$

$W=25\times 15\\W=375\ J$

change in kinetic energy is $\Delta K$

$\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-0)\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 6^2\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 36\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=54\ J$

According to work-energy theorem, work done by all the forces is equal to the change in the kinetic energy

$\Rightarrow W+W_f=\Delta K\quad [W_f=\text{Work done by friction}]\\\\\Rightarrow 375+W_f=54\\\Rightarrow W_f=-321\ J$

Therefore, the magnitude of work done by friction is $321\ J$
