The velocity of B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s

This type of collision is an elastic collision and we can use a formula to solve this problem.

<h3>Elastic Collision</h3>

v_2 = \frac{2m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2} - \frac{m_1 - m_2}{m_1 + m_2}u_2

The data given are;

  • m1 = 281kg
  • u1 = 2.82m/s
  • m2 = 209kg
  • u2 = -1.72m/s
  • v1 = ?

Let's substitute the values into the equation.

v_1 = \frac{2*281*2.82}{281+209} -\frac{281-209}{281+209}(-1.72)\\v_1 = 3.45m/s

From the calculation above, the final velocity of the car B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s.

To what potential should you charge a 3.0 μf capacitor to store 1.0 j of energy?
Nimfa-mama [501]
The energy stored in a capacitor is given by:
U= \frac{1}{2}CV^2
where
U is the energy
C is the capacitance
V is the potential difference

The capacitor in this problem has capacitance
C=3.0 \mu F = 3.0 \cdot 10^{-6} F
So if we re-arrange the previous equation, we can calculate the potential V that should be applied to the capacitor to store U=1.0 J of energy on it:
V= \sqrt{ \frac{2U}{C} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 1.0 J}{3.0 \cdot 10^{-6}F} }=816 V

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rare of 4.90 meters per second^2. What is the cars speed after it has t
Vesnalui [34]

From the law of Galileo Galilei  :v²=v₀²+2ad we take the speed

v²=0+2*4.90*200=1960=>v=√1960=44.27 m/s

If an electromagnetic wave has components Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt) and Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt), in what direction is it traveling?
fomenos

Answer:

Its traveling in the +x direction

Explanation:

The E-field is in the +y-direction, and the B-field is in the +z-direction, so it must be moving along the +x-direction, since the E-field, B-field and the direction of moving are all at right angles to each other.
