Answer:
The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the first cart, m₁ = 2 kg
initial speed of the first car, u₁ = 3 m/s
mass of the second cart, m₂ = 4 kg
initial speed of the second cart, u₂ = 0
Let the final speed of both carts = v, since they stick together after collision.
Apply the principle of conservation of momentum to determine v
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
2 x 3 + 0 = v(2 + 4)
6 = 6v
v = 1 m/s
Impulse is given by;
I = ft = mΔv = m(
The impulse exerted by the first cart on the second cart is given;
I = 2 (3 -1 )
I = 4 N.s
The impulse exerted by the second cart on the first cart is given;
I = 4(0-1)
I = - 4 N.s (equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the impulse exerted by the first).
Therefore, the impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
Answer:
The magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.
Explanation:
We know the electric field E = V/d where V = voltage applied and d = separation between plates.
Since V is constant and V = Ed,
So, E₁d₁ = E₂d₂ where E₁ = initial electric field at separation d₁, d₁ = initial separation of plates, E₂ = final electric field at separation d₂ and d₂ = final separation of plates.
So, E₂ = E₁d₁/d₂
Now, the distance between the plates is twice their original separation. Thus, d₂ = 2d₁
So, E₂ = E₁d₁/2d₁ = E₁/2
So, E₂ = E₁/2
Thus, the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.
Answer:
m = 5.22 kg
Explanation:
The force acting on the bucket is 52.2 N.
We need to find the mass of the bucket.
The force acting on the bucket is given by :
F = mg
g is acceleration due to gravity
m is mass
So, the mass of the bucket is 5.22 kg.
B is the correct answer hope that helped
Given Information:
Mass of sock = 0.23 kg
Stretched length of sock = x = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m
Required Information:
Spring constant = k = ?
Answer:
Spring constant = k = 88.82 N/m
Explanation:
We know from the Hook's law that
F = kx
Where k is spring constant, F is the applied force and x is length of sock being stretched.
k = F/x
Where F is given by
F = mg
F = 0.23*9.81
F = 2.256 N
So the spring constant is
k = 2.256/0.0254
k = 88.82 N/m
Therefore, the spring constant of the sock is 88.82 N/m
