When the wind kicks up dust and sand, the dust grains are charged. The small grains tend to get a negative charge, and the large

grains a positive charge. The small grains are lifted higher by the wind.?

diamong [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Small grains are negatively charged by the wind while big grains is positively charged and remains at the ground . This process creates an electric field due to the presence of oppositely charged particles.

When ever electric field exists it is directed from a positive charge to a negative charge so the here electric field is towards an upwards direction.

Suppose you want to design an air bag system that can protect the driver at a speed 100 km/h (60 mph) if the car hits a brick wa
34kurt

When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.

Now, given that:

  • the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
  • after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h

Assumptions:

  • Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
  • That the car's acceleration is also constant.

∴

For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:

\mathsf{v^2 = u^2 + 2as}

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:

\mathsf{v^2 - u^2 =2as }

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2 }{2s}}

The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.

since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s

100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{(0)^2 - (27.78)^2 }{2(1)}}

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{- 771.7284 }{2}}

a = - 385.86 m/s²

Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;

v = u + at

where;

v = 0

-u = at

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-u}{a}}

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-27.78}{-385.86}}

t = 0.07 seconds

An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.

Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

A 3.0 kg object moving 8.0 m/s in the positive x direction has a one-dimensional elastic collision with an object (mass = M) ini
finlep [7]
<h2>Option 2 is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

Elastic collision means kinetic energy and momentum are conserved.

Let the mass of object be m and M.

Initial velocity object 1 be u₁,  object 2 be u₂

Final velocity object 1 be v₁,  object 2 be v₂

Initial momentum = m x u₁ + M x u₂ = 3 x 8 + M x 0 = 24 kgm/s

Final momentum = m x v₁ + M x v₂ = 3 x v₁ + M x 6 = 3v₁ + 6M

Initial kinetic energy = 0.5 m x u₁² + 0.5 M x u₂² = 0.5 x 3 x 8² + 0.5 x M x 0² = 96 J

Final kinetic energy = 0.5 m x v₁² + 0.5 M x v₂² = 0.5 x 3 x v₁² + 0.5 x M x 6² = 1.5 v₁² + 18 M

We have

            Initial momentum = Final momentum

            24 = 3v₁ + 6M

            v₁ + 2M = 8

             v₁ = 8 - 2M

            Initial kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy

            96 = 1.5 v₁² + 18 M

            v₁² + 12 M = 64

Substituting  v₁ = 8 - 2M

           (8 - 2M)² + 12 M = 64    

           64 - 32M + 4M² + 12 M = 64    

            4M² = 20 M

               M = 5 kg

Option 2 is the correct answer.
