A lab cart with a mass of 15 kg is moving with constant velocity, v, along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kg m

lbvjy [14]

The equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ (option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.

The horizontal momentum is given by:

$p_{i} = p_{f}$

$m_{1}v_{1}_{i} + m_{2}v_{2}_{i} = m_{1}v_{1}_{f} + m_{2}v_{2}_{f}$

Where:

m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg

m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg

$v_{1}_{i}$ : is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>

$v_{2}_{i}$ : is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)

$v_{1}_{f}$ : is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>

$v_{2}_{f}$ : is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>

Then, the horizontal momentum is:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = 15v_{1}_{f} + 2v_{2}_{f}$

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = v_{f}(15 + 2)$

Therefore, the equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

Calculate the electric field at the center of a square

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

The Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

Explanation:

Given:

side of a square, $a=52.5\ cm$

charge on one corner of the square, $q_1=+45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

charge on the remaining 3 corners of the square, $q_2=q_3=q_4=-27\times 10^{-6}\ C$

<u>Distance of the center from each corners</u> $=\frac{1}{2} \times diagonals$

$diagonal=\sqrt{52.5^2+52.5^2}$

$diagonal=74.25\cm=0.7425\ m$

∴Distance of center from corners, $b=0.3712\ m$

Now, electric field due to charges is given as:

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\times \frac{q}{b^2}$

<u>For charge $q_1$ we have the field lines emerging out of the charge since it is positively charged:</u>

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \frac{45\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_1=2938775.5\ N.C^{-1}$

<u>Force by each of the charges at the remaining corners:</u>

$E_2=E_3=E_4=9\times 10^9\times \frac{27\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_2=E_3=E_4=1763265.3\ N.C^{-1}$

<u> Now, net electric field in the vertical direction:</u>

$E_y=E_1-E_4$

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

<u>Now, net electric field in the horizontal direction:</u>

$E_y=E_2-E_3$

$E_y=0\ N.C^{-1}$

So the Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

How are meteors and meteorites different?

konstantin123 [22]

A meteor is the flash of light that we see in the night sky when a small chunk of interplanetary debris burns up as it passes through our atmosphere. "Meteor" refers to the flash of light caused by the debris, not the debris itself.

If any part of a meteoroid survives the fall through the atmosphere and lands on Earth, it is called a meteorite.

Find the radioactivity of a 1 g sample of 226Ra given that <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=t_%7B1%2F2%7D%3D1620" id="TexFormul

dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

No of atoms of Ra in 1 g of sample = 6.023 x 10²³ / 226

N = 2.66 x 10²¹

disintegration constant λ = .693 / half life

half life = 1620 x 365 x 60 x 60 x 24 = 5.1 x 10¹⁰ s

disintegration constant λ = .693 / 5.1 x 10¹⁰

radioactivity dn / dt = λN

= (.693 / 5.1 x 10¹⁰ ) x 2.66 x 10²¹

= .3614 x 10¹¹ per sec

= 3.614 x 10¹⁰ / s
