a) The student hypothesizes that a greater fraction of kinetic energy is lost from the system during the collision when the spee

Mashcka [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer with Explanation:

One hypothesis above would probably rely on the situation called <em>"inelastic collision." </em>The two carts are travelling towards each other at different speed. So, this means that once they collide, the kinetic energy will not be conserved but will be transferred as <em>sound energy, thermal energy or material deformation</em>. The impact will be great, thus a <u>greater fraction of kinetic energy will be lost from the system.</u>

A 2.50-m segment of wire carries 1000 A current and feels a 4.00-N repulsive force from a parallel wire 5.00 cm away. What is th
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The current is  I_b  =  400 \ A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  length of the segment is  l  =  2.50  \  m

     The current is  I_a  =  1000 \ A

     The force felt is  F  =  4.0 \  N

        The distance of the second wire is  d =  5.0 \ cm  = 0.05 \  m

Generally the current on the second wire is mathematically represented as

        I_b  =  \frac{2 \pi * r * F }{ l *  \mu_o  *  I_a }

Here  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value  \mu_o =  4 \pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2

=>      I_b  =  \frac{2 * 3.142  *  0.05 *  4 }{ 2.50  *  4\pi *10^{-7}  * 1000 }

=>      I_b  =  400 \ A

Frictional force is caused by the interaction of a body with​
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Frictional force always acts parallel to two planes in contact with each other and in a direction opposite to that of relative motion of the two bodies. 2. Frictional forces are caused due to intermolecular interactions between the bodies.  Frictional force is more for rough surface and less for smooth surfaces.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

100 km/h

Explanation:

96km•2.5=240km

240÷3/5=240•5/3=400km

400-240=160km

4.1-2.5=1.6h

160÷1.6=100km/h

How much electrical energy is used by a 75 W laptop that is operating for 12<br>minutes?​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

"1 watt" means 1 joule of energy per second.

75 W means 75 joules/sec .

Energy = (75 Joule/sec) x (12 min) x (60 sec/min)

Energy = (75 x 12 x 60) (Joule-<em>min-sec</em> / <em>sec-min</em>)

<em>Energy = 54,000 Joules</em>
