A 2,000 kg car is moving at 15m/s when it collides with a 1200kg car sitting still. Briefly compare the impulse imparted on the

1200kg car by the 2000 kg car to the impulse on the 2000 kg car by the 1200 kg car which car under goes the greater change in momentum

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car 1 = 2000 kg

speed of car 1 = 15 m/s

mass of car 2 = 1200 kg

car 2 is initially at rest.

Impulse (F Δt) = change in momentum = Δ(mv)

Change in Momentum depends on the mass and velocity.

When car 1 collides with car 2, car 1 would under go greater change in the momentum because it has greater mass and initial velocity while car 2 has smaller mass and is initially at rest.

impulse = F × t

The greater the impulse exerted on something, the greater will be the change in momentum.

impulse = change in momentum

Ft = ∆(mv)

N76 [4]

Answer:

59.4 meters

Explanation:

The correct question statement is :

A floor polisher has a rotating disk that has a 15-cm radius. The disk rotates at a constant angular velocity of 1.4 rev/s and is covered with a soft material that does the polishing. An operator holds the polisher in one place for 4.5 s, in order to buff an especially scuff ed area of the floor. How far (in meters) does a spot on the outer edge of the disk move during this time?

Solution:

We know for a circle of radius r and θ angle by an arc of length S at the center,

S=rθ

This gives

θ=S/r

also we know angular velocity

ω=θ/t    where t is time

or

θ=ωt

and we know

1 revolution =2π radians

From this we have

angular velocity ω = 1.4 revolutions per sec =  1.4×2π radians /sec = 1.4×3.14×2×= 8.8 radians / sec

Putting values of ω and time t in

θ=ωt

we have

θ= 8.8 rad / sec × 4.5 sec

θ= 396 radians

We are given radius r = 15 cm = 15 ×0.01 m=0.15 m (because 1 m= 100 cm and hence, 1 cm = 0.01 m)

put this value of θ and r  in

S=rθ

we have

S= 396 radians ×0.15 m=59.4 m

I stretch a rubber band and "plunk" it to make it vibrate in its fundamental frequency. I then stretch it to twice its length an
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1)

Explanation:

Fundamental frequency = wave velocity/2L

where;

L is the length of the stretched rubber

Wave velocity = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}

Frequency (F₁) = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}

To obtain the new frequency with respect to the old frequency, we consider the conditions stated in the question.

Given:

L₂ =2L₁ = 2L

T₂ = 2T₁ = 2T

(M/L)₂ = 0.5(M/L)₁ = 0.5(M/L)

F₂ = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{2T}{0.5(\frac{M}{L})}}}{4*L} = \frac{\sqrt{4(\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}})}{4*L} = \frac{2}{2} [\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}] = F_1

Therefore, the new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1).
