Stat the law of conservation of momentum​

Physics
1 answer:
Alex787 [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The law has three definitions

Firstly,

The law of conservation of linear momentum states that in any system of colliding objects the total momentum is always conserved provided that there is no net external force acting on the system.

Secondly

If two or more bodies collide in a closed system,the total momentum after the collision is equal to the total momentum before the collision

Thirdly,

The total momentum of an isolated or closed system of colliding bodies remains constant

A group of students painted four cans, placed 500 grams of water in each can, and measured the temperature of the water as shown
inna [77]

B.The water molecules in the black can had the largest increase in average kinetic energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here, black painted can absorbs more heat than the other color painted cans.

Black color absorbs all the heat and didn't reflect anything back, so it absorbs the most heat.

White color reflects all the heat, so heat absorbed by the white can is least.

When the black can absorbs heat then the water molecules in the can gets its maximum amount of kinetic energy so that the water molecules in the can collide with each other and also along with the walls of the can here, and so the average kinetic energy increases.

Holly puts a box into the trunk of her car. Later, she drives around an unbanked curve that has a radius of 48 m. The speed of t
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of static friction for the box on the floor of the trunk is 0.54.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the unbanked curve, r = 48 m

The speed of the car on the curve, v = 16 m/s

We need to find the minimum coefficient of static friction for the box on the floor of the trunk. It can be calculated by balancing the centripetal force and the force of gravity as :

\mu mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\mu=\dfrac{v^2}{rg}

\mu=\dfrac{(16)^2}{48\times 9.8}

\mu=0.54

So, the minimum coefficient of static friction for the box on the floor of the trunk is 0.54. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain how magnetic forces enable a maglev train to float above the tracks. Please help and hurry it’s timed
Furkat [3]

Answer:

We understand that two like poles of magnet repel each other. Maglev train is based on the same concept. The train levitates above the tracks because of repulsion between one set of magnets. One set of magnets lifts the train upwards causing it to levitate or float above tracks and other set of magnets causes it to move forward. This method enables less consumption of energy as loss of energy due to friction is negligible and also, high speed can be achieved.

A piston of volume 0.1 m3 contains two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at 300K. If it undergoes an isothermal process and expands
seropon [69]

Answer:

the work is done by the gas on the environment -is W= - 3534.94 J (since the initial pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure , it needs external work to expand)

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas behaviour of the gas , the equation for ideal gas is

P*V=n*R*T

where

P = absolute pressure

V= volume

T= absolute temperature

n= number of moles of gas

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

P=n*R*T/V

the work that is done by the gas is calculated through

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV

for an isothermal process T=constant and since the piston is closed vessel also n=constant during the process then denoting 1 and 2 for initial and final state respectively:

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV =  n*R*T  ∫(1/V) dV = n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)

since

P₁=n*R*T/V₁

P₂=n*R*T/V₂

dividing both equations

V₂/V₁ = P₁/P₂

W= n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)  = n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ )

replacing values

P₁=n*R*T/V₁ = 2 moles* 8.314 J/mol K* 300K / 0.1 m3= 49884 Pa

since P₂ = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

W= n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ ) = 2 mol * 8.314 J/mol K * 300K * (49884 Pa/101325 Pa) = -3534.94 J
