A compact car, mass 660 kg, is moving at 1.00 ✕ 102 km/h toward the east. The driver of the compact car suddenly applies the bra

Maslowich

Answer: $59.43\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

Explanation:

Given

mass of car $m=660 kg$

Initial velocity of car $=102 km/h\approx 28.33 m/s$ towards east

Time taken to stop $t=2.1 s$

Force exerted $F_{avg}=4.8\times 10^3 N$

change in momentum is given by impulse imparted to the car

$Impulse(J)=-F\cdot t$

$J=-4.8\times 10^3\times 2.1$

$J=-59.49\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

negative Sign indicates that impulse is imparted opposite to the direction of motion

magnitude of momentum $J=59.49\times 10^3$

A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor that has a very small capacitance. what can we say about

Misha Larkins [42]

<span>A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor
that has a very small capacitance.

The capacitance of the series combination is slightly smaller than the
capacitance of the small capacitor. (choice-C)

The capacitance of a series combination is

1 / (1/A + 1/B + 1/C + 1/D + .....) .

If you wisk, fold, knead, and mash that expression for a while,
you find that for only two capacitors in series, (or 2 resistors or
two inductors in parallel), the combination is

(product of the 2 individuals) / (sum of the individuals) .

In this problem, we have a humongous one and a tiny one.
Let's call them 1000 and 1 .
Then the series combination is

(1000 x 1) / (1000 + 1)

= (1000) / (1001)

= 0.999 000 999 . . .

which is smaller than the smaller individual.

It'll always be that way. </span>

The astronomer who discovered the dwarf planet Eris suggests there might be another object far beyond the Kupier belt. If this P

PolarNik [594]

These objects would be classified as extreme trans Neptunian object (ETNO).

Explanation:

ETNO’s are the objects lying beyond the planet Neptune and orbiting the Sun. They follow a highly eccentric path which is tilted. ETNO has been grouped into three major according to their respective perihelia.

Within this region (beyond Neptune’s orbit), a hypothetical planet has been discovered. It was discovered following its gravitational effect on the other objects of Kuiper Belt (region beyond the orbit of the Neptune- the last planet of our Solar system)

The Planet is assumed to be around 2 times the Earth’s size and around 10 times heavier than Earth.

The engineer of a train traveling at 30 m/sec sees a cow on the tracks. He applies the brakes and causes the train to accelerate

sineoko [7]

Answer:The train travels 105 meters after applying the brakes

Explanation:If he decelerates 1.5 every minute, then he went from 28,5 m/s, to 27.0 m/s, to 25.5 m/s, to 24.0 m/s, after 4 seconds. Add all this together and youll get 105 meters moved in 4 seconds after he hit the brakes, I dont have a notebook on me though sorry :/

Bright and dark fringes are seen on a screen when light from a single source reaches two narrow slits a short distance apart. Th

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the thickness of the film is t and the refractive index of the material of film is n.

When light travels through a sheet of thickness t, the optical path traveled is nt.

When the path of one of slit is covered by a sheet of thickness t, the optical path becomes

x = ( n - 1) t

As the one fringe is shift, so the optical path changed by one wavelength.

i.e., x = λ

So, λ = ( n - 1) t

$t=\frac{\lambda }{n-1}$
