Answer: 33.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given

The initial mass of the object is $6\ kg$

It breaks into two fragments of 3.5 and 2.5 kg

3.5 kg part moves at 24 m/s towards left

Suppose 2.5 kg part moves with a speed of v towards the right

As the center of mass is at rest before the collision, it continues to remain at rest after the collision.

$\therefore 6\times 0=3.5\times 24-2.5\times v\\\Rightarrow 3.5\times 24=2.5\times v\\\\\Rightarrow v=33.6\ m/s$

Therefore, the velocity of 2.5 kg mass is 33.6 m/s towards right.

Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distanc

4vir4ik [10]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Cars A nad B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distance $D_{A}$ beyond the starting line at t = 0. The starting line is at x = 0. Car A travels at a constant speed $v_{A}$ . Car B starts at the starting line but has a better engine than Car A and thus Car B travels at a constant speed $v_{B}$ , which is greater than $v_{A}$ .

Part A: How long after Car B started the race will Car B catch up with Car A? Express the time in terms of given quantities.

Part B: How far from Car B's starting line will the cars be when Car B passes Car A? Express your answer in terms of known quantities.

Answer: Part A: $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Part B: $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Explanation: First, let's write an equation of motion for each car.

Both cars travels with constant speed. So, they are an uniform rectilinear motion and its position equation is of the form:

$x=x_{0}+vt$

where

$x_{0}$ is initial position

v is velocity

t is time

Car A started the race at a distance. So at t = 0, initial position is $D_{A}$ .

The equation will be:

$x_{A}=D_{A}+v_{A}t$

Car B started at the starting line. So, its equation is

$x_{B}=v_{B}t$

Part A: When they meet, both car are at "the same position":

$D_{A}+v_{A}t=v_{B}t$

$v_{B}t-v_{A}t=D_{A}$

$t(v_{B}-v_{A})=D_{A}$

$t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Car B meet with Car A after $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of time.

Part B: With the meeting time, we can determine the position they will be:

$x_{B}=v_{B}(\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}} )$

$x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Since Car B started at the starting line, the distance Car B will be when it passes Car A is $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of distance.

The frequency of the musical note F#3 is 1.85x102 hertz. What is its period?

g100num [7]

The period of the musical note is $\text { 5. } 4 \times 10^{-3}$ seconds.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The frequency is defined as the number of oscillations or a complete cycle of wave occurred in a given time interval. So the frequency is inversely proportional to the time period. Thus the mathematical representation of frequency with time period is

$\text {Frequency}=\frac{1}{\text {Time period }}$

As the frequency is given as $1.85 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{Hz}$ , the time period can be found as

$\text { Time period }=\frac{1}{\text { Frequency }}$

Thus,

$\text { Time period }=\frac{1}{1.85 \times 10^{2}}=5.4 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{s}$

Thus the time period for the frequency of the musical note is $\text { 5. } 4 \times 10^{-3}$ seconds.
