C4. A 50.0 kg boy runs at 10.0 m/s, jumps on a cart and rolls off at 2.50 m/s. What is the mass of the cart

Physics
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The mass of the cart is 150 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a boy, m₁ = 50 kg

Initial speed of boy, u₁ = 10 m/s

Initial speed of car, u₂ = 0 (at rest)

The speed of the cart with the boy on it is 2.50 m/s, V = 2.5 m/s

Let m₂ is the mass of the cart. Using the conservation of momentum as follows :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\50(10)+m_2(0)=(50+m_2)(2.5)\\\\500=125+2.5m_2\\\\375=2.5m_2\\\\m_2=150\ kg

So, the mass of the cart is 150 kg.

Find the acceleration of the system and the tension in the ropes for the system shown. The table mass is 30 kg and the hanging m
marusya05 [52]

The system's tension is 616 N and acceleration is 5.6 m / s^{2}

<u>Explanation:</u>

From newton’s second law of motion which state that net force acting on a body is product of mass of a body and acceleration of a body which is given as,

             F_{n e t}=m_{t o t} \times a

Where,

F_{n e t} is net force acting on body

m_{\mathrm{tot}} is mass of body

a is acceleration of body

Given values  

Table mass (m) = 30 kg

Hanging mass (m) = 40 kg

                a=\frac{F_{n e t}}{m_{\mathrm{tot}}}=\frac{m \times g}{m_{\mathrm{tot}}}

Put the value for m = hanging mass = 40 kg and g=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}, we get

                  a=\frac{40 \times 9.8}{30+40}=\frac{392}{70}=5.6 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

The tension in the ropes,  T=(m \times g)+(m \times a)

Here, m as hanging mass

T = tension, N or  k g m / s^{2}

m = mass, kg  

g = gravitational force, 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

a = acceleration, m / s^{2}

          T = (40 \times 9.8)+(40 \times 5.6) = 392+224 = 616 N

Identify the physical mechanism that causes turbulent thermal conductivity.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Eddies due to enhanced mixing of fluid

Explanation:

Turbulent thermal conductivity is thermal conductivity that arises from the turbulent flow of fluids. It comes into play when a particukar fluid moves into turbulent regiom of flow where flow is no longer orderly and streamlines aren't discernable with the fluid layers all warping into one another forming vortices.

It is represented as K and is shown mathematically through the heat flux at turbulent flow

q = vCρT' = - K (∂T/∂y)

where

K = turbulent thermal conductivity

T' = the eddy temperature relative to the mean value,

C = Heat capacity the fluid

q = the rate of thermal energy transport by turbulent eddies.

The physical mechanism that cause turbulent thermal conductivity are similar to the causes of turbulent flow of fluids.

This includes sharp changes in fluid pressure and velocity of flow which is evident in eddies that come about in the enhanced mixing of fluids.

Hope this Helps!!!

What is the idea behind the law of multiple proportions?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The law of multiple proportions states that when two elements can combine in different ratios to form different compounds, the masses of the element combining with the fixed mass of another element result in whole number ratios. This shows that the law of multiple proportions is followed

A 12.0-g bullet is fired horizontally into a 109-g wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface a
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v₀ = 280.6 m / s

Explanation:

we have the shock between the bullet and the block that we can work with at the moment and another part where the assembly (bullet + block) compresses a spring, which we can work with mechanical energy,

We write the mechanical energy when the shock has passed the bodies

   Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v²

We write the mechanical energy when the spring is in maximum compression

Em_{f} = K_{e} \\= \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\    Em_0 = Em_{f}

½ (m + M) v² = ½ k x²

Let's calculate the system speed

   v = √ [k x² / (m + M)]

   v = √[152 ×0.78² / (0.012 +0.109) ]

   v = 27.65 m / s

This is the speed of the bullet + Block system

Now let's use the moment to solve the shock

Before the crash

   p₀ = m v₀

After the crash

p_{f} = (m + M) v

The system is formed by the bullet and block assembly, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is preserved

 p_0 =  p_{f}

  m v₀ = (m + M) v

  v₀ = v (m + M) / m

let's calculate

v₀ = 27.83 (0.012 +0.109) /0.012

  v₀ = 280.6 m / s
