A 1.0-kg cart and a 0.50-kg cart sit at different positions on a low-friction track. You push on the 1.0-kg cart with a constant

4.0-N force for 0.20 m. You then remove your hand, and the cart slides 0.35 m and strikes the 0.50-kg cart. What is the work done by you on the two-cart system? How far does the system's center of mass move while you are pushing the 1.0-kg cart? By what amount does your force change the kinetic energy of the system's center of mass?

Answer:

a)W=0.8J

b) d_t=0.20m

c) \triangle K.E=0.267J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass of cart 1 M_1=1.0kg

Mass of cart 1 M_2=0.05kg

Force on  cart 1 F_1=4.0N

Push Distance of cart 1 d_1=0.20m

Slide Distance of cart 1 d_1'=0.35m

a)

Generally the equation for work-done is mathematically given by

W=f*d\\W=4*0.20\\W=0.8J \\

b)

The systems center of mass moved a net totally of (while being pushed)

Mass 1 =0.20m

Mass 2=0

Therefore

d_t=d_1+d_2

d_t=0.20+0

d_t=0.20m

c)

Since work-done is equal to K.E energy of cart 1

Therefore

W=1/2mv^2

V_1=\sqrt{\frac{W}{1/2m}}

V_1=\sqrt{\frac{0.8}{1/2(1)}}

V_1=1.264

Therefore Kinetic energy before collision is

K.E_1=1/2mv^2

K.E_1=1/2*1*1.264^2

K.E_1=0.768

Generally from the equation for conservation  of momentum the Velocity of cart 2 is mathematically given by

v_2=\frac{m_1V_1}{m_1+m_2}

v_2=\frac{1*1.264}{1+0.5}

V_2=0.842m/s

Therefore the final K.E is mathematically given by

K.E_2=(1/2)(m_1+m_2)V_2^2

K.E_2=1/2*(1.5)(0.842)^2

K.E_2=0.531J

Generally the Change in K.E is mathematically given by

\triangle K.E=K.E_1-K.E_2

\triangle K.E=0.798-0.531

\triangle K.E=0.267J

Therefore the will force change the kinetic energy of the system's center of mass by

\triangle K.E=0.267J

Answer:

1.97 * 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

n = 1.52

Recall : speed of light (c) = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Speed (v) of light in glass:

v = speed of light / n

v = (3 * 10^8) / 1.52

v = 1.9736 * 10^8

Hence, speed of light in glass :

v = 1.97 * 10^8 m/s

Llana [10]

The potential energy of the skateboarder at the top of the ramp is

489.1 J.

<h3>Is kinetic energy always equal to potential energy?</h3>

The amount of kinetic energy change and the amount of potential energy change are equal in all physical processes that take place in closed systems. When the kinetic energy rises, the potential energy falls, and vice versa.

Potential energy is the stored energy in any object or system as a result of its position or component arrangement. However, external factors like air or height have no effect on it. The energy of a moving object or system is referred to as kinetic energy.

Potential energy = kinetic energy

Potential energy = 1/2mv²

Potential energy = 1/2 × 67×7.3

Potential energy = 489.1 J.
