Impulse = (force) x (length of time the force lasts)
I see where you doodled (60)(40) over on the side, and you'll be delighted
to know that you're on the right track !
Here's the mind-blower, which I'll bet you never thought of:
On a force-time graph, impulse (also change in momentum)
is just the <em>area that's added under the graph during some time</em> !
From zero to 60, the impulse is just the area of that right triangle
under the graph. The base of the triangle is 60 seconds. The
height of the triangle is 40N . The area of the triangle is not
the whole (base x height), but only <em><u>1/2 </u></em>(base x height).
1/2 (base x height) = 1/2 (60s x 40N) = <u>1,200 newton-seconds</u>
<u>That's</u> the impulse during the first 60 seconds. It's also the change in
the car's momentum during the first 60 seconds.
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
If the car wasn't moving at all when the graph began, then its momentum is 1,200 newton-sec after 60 seconds. Through the convenience of the SI system of units, 1,200 newton-sec is exactly the same thing as 1,200 kg-m/s . The car's mass is 3 kg, so after 60 sec, you can write
Momentum = M x V = (3 kg) x (speed) = 1,200 kg-m/s
and the car's speed falls right out of that.
From 60to 120 sec, the change in momentum is the added area of that
extra right triangle on top ... it's 60sec wide and only 20N high. Calculate
its area, that's the additional impulse in the 2nd minute, which is also the
increase in momentum, and that'll give you the change in speed.
Conservation of momentum requires that the sum of momenta after is equal to that before. Since initially nothing is moving, the sum after the shot will also add to zero.
m₁v₁ = -m₂v₂
Solve for the cannon's velocity v₁
v₁ = -m₂v₂/m₁ = -2.10m/s
The negative sign means it's moving 2.10m/s south.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
<u>An increase in pressure favors the formation of ozone </u>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Ozone, O3, decomposes to molecular oxygen in the stratosphere according to the reaction
2O3(g) ⇆ 3O2 (g).
- There are more moles of product gas than moles of reactant gas. An increase in total pressure increases the partial pressure of each gas, shifting the equilibrium towards the reactants.
- Therefore; an increase in pressure favors backward reactions towards the formation of ozone.
The statement which best describes how light waves travel in an uniform medium is in straight lines. The correct answer will be A.
Answer:
Explanation:
The charge on 10μF capacitor = 10 x 12 x 10⁻⁶ = 120 μC
when it is connected with 20μF capacitor both acquires common potential whose value is
= 120 x 10⁻⁶ /( 10 +20) x 10⁻⁶ = 4 V.
Energy stored in 20μF capacitor =1/2 x 20 x 10⁻⁶ x 4 x 4 = 160 x 10⁻⁶ J.
