Answer:

The two carts will experience an impulse of the same magnitude, but of opposite directions.

Explanation:

Newton's third law proves that though action and reaction are the same, but they are opposite to each other.

i.e F_{1} = -F_{2}

where: F_{1} and F_{2} have equal value.

Impulse = F x t

where F is the force on the object and t is the time of impact.

In the given question, since the collision takes place in a given time.

Then;

F_{1} x t_{1}= -F_{2} x t_{2}

⇒ F_{1} t_{1}= -F_{2} t_{2}

Thus, since the sum of the forces acting on the system are zero, then the two carts experience an impulse of the same magnitude but opposite in directions.

An object of 4 cm length is placed at a distance of 18 cm in front of a convex mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm. Find the pos
erica [24]

Answer:

The position is 8.18cm from the mirror.

Nature is b=virtual

Size is 1.82cm

Explanation:

Note that for a convex mirror, the image distance and the focal length are negative;

Given

Object height H0 = 4cm

object distance u = 18cm

Radius of curvature R = 30cm

Since f = R/2

f = 30/2

f = -15cm

Recall that:

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}\\\frac{1}{-15}=\frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{v}    \\\frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{-15} -\frac{1}{18}\\ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{-18-15}{270}\\\frac{1}{v} = \frac{-33}{270}\\v=\frac{-270}{33}\\v=-8.18cm

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the image is a virtual image.

To get the size:

\frac{H_1}{H_0}=\frac{v}{u}\\\frac{H_1}{4}=\frac{8.18}{18}\\18H_i=32.72\\H_i=\frac{32.72}{18}\\H_i= 1.82cm

A mass of 10 g of oxygen fill a weighted piston–cylinder device at 20 kPa and 110°C. The device is now cooled until the tempe
mezya [45]

Answer:

The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is 14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of oxygen = 10 g

Pressure = 20 kPa

Initial temperature = 110°C

Final temperature = 0°C

We need to calculate the change of the volume of the device during this cooling

Using formula of change volume

\Delta V=V_{2}-V_{1}

\Delta V=\dfrac{mR}{P}(T_{2}-T_{1})

Put the value into the formula

\Delta V=\dfrac{0.3125\times0.0821}{2.0265\times10^{9}}(383-273)

\Delta V=14.297\ L

\Delta V=14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3

Hence, The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is 14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3
