On an ice skating rink, a girl of mass 50 kg stands stationary, face to face with a boy of mass 80 kg. The children push off of

one another, and the boy moves away with a velocity of 3 m/s. What is the final velocity of the girl? â€"1. 9 m/s 1. 9 m/s â€"4. 8 m/s 4. 8 m/s.

The velocity of the girl is  -4.8 m/s.

Using the principle of conservation of linear momentum, The total momentum of  bodies before and after collision is constant. Since the two objects are stationary, the initial momentum of each body is zero.

Thus;

0 = (80 × 3) + (50 × v)

0 = 240 + 50 v

-240 = 50 v

v = -240/50

v = -4.8 m/s

Note that the negative sign shows that the velocity of the girl is in opposite direction that that of the girl.

Answer:

Explanation:

Electron's kinetic energy = 2 eV

= 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

1/2 m v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

v² = .703 x 10¹²

v = .8385 x 10⁶ m/s

Electrons revolve in a circular orbit when forced to travel in a magnetic field whose radius can be expressed as follows

r = mv / Bq

where m , v and q are mass , velocity and charge of electron .

here given magnetic field B = 90 mT

= 90 x 10⁻³ T

Putting these values in the expression above

r =  mv / Bq

= \frac{9\times10^{-31}\times.8385\times10^6}{90\times10^{-3}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}

= .052 mm.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

b. increasing the number of turns per unit length on the solenoid

e. increasing the current in the solenoid

Explanation:

As we know that energy density depends on the strength of the magnetic field. The magnetic field strength depends on the no of turns of the solenoid and the current passing through it. The greater the number of turns per unit length, greater the current passing through it, more stronger the magnetic field is. As

B = μ₀nI

n = no of turns

I = current through the wire

So the right options are

b. increasing the number of turns per unit length on the solenoid

e. increasing the current in the solenoid
