In the classic horse and cart problem, a horse is attached to a cart that can roll along on a set of wheels. Which of the follow

ing statement is true? Also explain the reason of your selected choice as well. a) The horse pulls on the cart with a force, and the cart pulls, back on the horse with an equal force. b) The horse pulls on the cart with a force greater than the force that the cart pulls back on the horse. c) The horse pulls the cart forward, because of a time delay between the action and reaction forces. d) The horse pulls the cart forward, but only if the horse has a mass greater than the mass of the cart. e) The horse pulls the cart forward because the force of friction forward is greater than the force of the wagon backward.

In a mass spectrometer a particle of mass m and charge q is accelerated through a potential difference V and allowed to enter a
Ghella [55]

Answer:

m = B²qR² / 2 V

Explanation:

If v be the velocity after acceleration under potential difference of V

kinetic energy  = loss of electric potential energy

1/2 m v² = Vq ,

v² = 2 Vq / m ----------------------- ( 1 )

In magnetic field , charged particle comes in circular motion in which magnetic force provides centripetal force

magnetic force = centripetal force

Bqv = mv² / R

v = BqR / m

v² = B²q²R² / m²  ------------------------- (2)

from (1) and (2)

B²q²R² / m²  = 2 Vq / m

m = B²q²R² / 2 Vq

m = B²qR² / 2 V

A 4 kg textbook sits on a desk. It is pushed horizontally with a 50 N applied force against a 15 N frictional force.
GarryVolchara [31]

a) See free-body diagram in attachment

b) The book is stationary in the vertical direction

c) The net horizontal force is 35 N in the forward direction

d) The net force on the book is 35 N in the forward horizontal direction

e) The acceleration is 8.75 m/s^2 in the forward direction

Explanation:

a)

The free-body diagram of a body represents all the forces acting on the body using arrows, where the length of each arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force and points in the same direction.

From the diagram of this book, we see there are 4 forces acting on the book:

- The applied force, F = 50 N, pushing forward in the horizontal direction

- The frictional force, F_f = 15 N, pulling backward in the horizontal direction (the frictional force always acts in the direction opposite to the motion)

- The weight of the book, W=mg, where m is the mass of the book and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, acting downward. We can calculate its magnitude using the mass of the book, m = 4 kg:

W=(4)(9.8)=39.2 N

- The normal reaction exerted by the desk on the book, N, acting upward, and balancing the weight of the book

b)

The book is in equilibrium in the vertical direction, therefore there is no motion.

In fact, the magnitude of the normal reaction (N) exerted by the desk on the book is exactly equal to the weight of the book (W), so the equation of motion along the vertical direction is

N-W=ma

where a is the acceleration; however, since N = W, this becomes

a=0

And since the book is initially at rest on the desk, this means that there is no motion.

c)

We said there are two forces acting in the horizontal direction:

- The applied force, F = 50 N, forward

- The frictional force, F_f = 15 N, backward

Since they act along the same line, we can calculate their resultant as

\sum F = F - F_f = 50 - 15 = 35 N

and therefore the net force is 35 N in the forward direction.

d)

The net force is obtained as the resultant  of the net forces in the horizontal and vertical direction. However, we have:

- The net force in the horizontal direction is 35 N

- The net force in the vertical direction is zero, because the weight is balanced by the normal reaction

Therefore, this means that the total net force acting on the book is just the net force acting on the horizontal direction, so 35 N forward.

e)

The acceleration of the book can be calculated by using Newton's second law:

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Here we have:

\sum F = 35 N (in the forward direction)

m = 4 kg

Therefore, the acceleration is

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{35}{4}=8.75 m/s^2 (forward)

A skater is using very low friction rollerblades. A friend throws a Frisbee at her, on the straight line along which she is coas
kupik [55]

Answer:

a)  perfectly inelastic,  b)  collision is inelastic,  c)   elastic  

Explanation:

In this exercise, it is asked to identify what type of shock occurs between the skater and the frisbee, for this we must define a system formed by the skater and the fribee, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is preserved

Initial instant. Before the skater touches the frisbee

    p₀ = M v₁ + m v₂

where M and m are the masses of the skater and frisbee, respectively

for the final moment they give us several possibilities, in all case the moment is conserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

case a)

Final instant. grabs the frisbee and holds it

    p_{f} = (M + m) v '

     p₀ = p_{f}

We can see that this shock is perfectly inelastic, it holds the fressbee

case b)

final instant.

This case is similar to the previous one, but the final speed of fresbee is zero, therefore this collision is inelastic and the kinetic energy is not conserved.

case c)

final instant. Grab the fressbee and resend it

      p_{f} = M v_{1f} + m v_{2f}

this is an elastic Shock since the equivalent of a rebound of the fressbee, the kinetic energy is conserved.
