A particle of mass M moves along a straight line with initial speed vi. A force of magnitude F pushes the particle a distance D

along the direction of its motion.
By what multiplicative factor RK does the initial kinetic energy increase, and by what multiplicative factor RWdoes the work done by the force increase (with respect to the case when the particle had a mass M)?

If one of the quantities doubles, for instance, it would increase by a factor of 2. If a quantity stays the same, then the multiplicative factor would be 1.

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial kinetic energy of M = 1/2 M vi²

let final velocity be vf

v² = u² + 2a s

vf² =  vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

Kinetic energy

= 1/2 Mvf²

= 1/2 M ( vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

1/2 M vi² + FD

Ratio with initial value

1/2 M  vi² + FD) / 1/2 M  vi²

RK = 1 + FD / 2 M  vi²

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

mv = MV

where m is mass of the boxcar, v is its initial velocity, M is the mass of all six box cars, and V is the final velocity.

v = 12 m/s, and M = 6m, so:

m (12 m/s) = 6m V

12 m/s = 6V

V = 2 m/s

Which has a larger resistance, a 60 W lightbulb or a 100 W lightbulb? Which has a larger resistance, a 60 W lightbulb or a 100 W
Luba_88 [7]

You really can't tell.

Power = I^2 × R = V^2 / R ( unit in Watt)

For P = I^2 × R

Where we have P directly proportional to R, increase in Power leads to increase in R

So if we have 100 will have higher resistance

For P = V^2/R

Power is inversely proportional to resistance.

So increase in Power leads to decrease in resistance.

60 watt will have a higher resistance.

Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the initial velocity of the object is greater?
DIA [1.3K]
Yes. Even greater. Air resistance or drag becomes harder the faster an object goes. This is why when cars reach their max speed they don't accelerate as fast, because they are pushing harder against the wind. If I take a tennis ball and shoot it down a bottomless pit, a 400 kph, the drag will slow the ball down till it reaches terminal velocity.

Roseanne and Jackie were asked to design and create a paper airplane that would stay in the air for as long as possible. They be
jekas [21]

Answer:

the planes times in the air

Explanation:

When a paper airplane is thown the path it takes is not the same every time. So, measuring the distance between the points where the airplane took off and the point where is landed would not show the time the plane was in the air.

The weight also does not determine the time the plane was in the air.

So, the planes air time recorded with the stopwatch gives the time the plane was in the air and will indicate the best plane.

Red light of wavelength 633 nmnm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.360 mmmm wide. The diffraction pattern is obse
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

      Δy= 5,075 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

The expression that describes the interference phenomenon is

      d sin θ = (m + ½) λ

As the observation is on a distant screen

     tan θ = y / x

     tan θ= sin θ/cos θ

As in ethanes I will experience the separation of the vines is small and the distance to the big screen

          tan θ = sin θ

Let's replace

     d y / x = (m + ½) λ

The width of a bright stripe at the difference in distance  

     y₁ = (m + ½) λ x / d

     m = 1

      y₁ = 3/2 λ x / d

Let's use m = 1, we look for the following interference,

             m = 2

             y₂ = (2+ ½) λ x / d

The distance to the screen is constant x₁ = x₂ = x₀

The width of the bright stripe is

           Δy = λ x / d (5/2 -3/2)

           Δy = 630 10⁻⁹ 2.90 /0.360 10⁻³ (1)

           Δy= 5,075 10⁻⁶ m
