Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car 1 = m

speed of car 1 = v

time taken to stop the car = t

mass of car 2 = m' = 2 m

speed of the car 2 = v

time taken by the car to stop = t' = ?

now,

we know,

F = m a....(1)

and force by the second car

F = m' a'

F = 2 m a'

a' = \dfrac{F}{2m}

from equation (1)

a' = \dfrac{a}{2}

using equation of motion

v = u + at

0 = v - a t

t = \dfrac{v}{a}

again using equation of motion for the calculation of the time taken by the second car.

t'= \dfrac{v}{a'}

t' = 2\dfrac{v}{a}

t' = 2 t

hence, the time taken by the second car is twice the time taken by the first car to stop.

The correct answer is option D

adoni [48]

Answer:

E = 389 MeV

Explanation:

The total energy of particle A, will be equal to the sum of rest mass energy and relative energy of particle A. Therefore,

Total Energy of A = E = Rest Mass Energy + Relative Energy

Using Einstein's Equation: E = mc²

E = m₀c² + mc²

From Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, we know that:

m = m₀/[√(1-v²/c²)]

Therefore,

E = m₀c² + m₀c²/[√(1-v²/c²)]

E = m₀c²[1 + 1/√(1-v²/c²)]

where,

m₀c² = rest mass energy = 140 MeV

v = relative speed = 0.827 c

Therefore,

E = (140 MeV)[1 + 1/√(1 - (0.827c)²/c²)]

E = (140 MeV)(2.78)

<u>E = 389 MeV</u>

Why are springs made of steel and not of copper.​
torisob [31]

Answer:

Springs are made of a variety of materials including copper and various forms of steel. The most common is high carbon steel as it is cheap, easy to work and a couple of other important properties.

Copper springs exist as well, but copper is more expensive than steel. However, in an environment where corrosion resistance is important, copper springs are a good alternative.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

speed of electrons = 3.25 × 10^{7} m/s

acceleration in term g is 3.9 × 10^{17} g.

radius of circular orbit is 2.76 × 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

given data

voltage = 3 kV

magnetic field = 0.66 T

solution

law of conservation of energy

PE = KE

qV = 0.5 × m × v²

v = \sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\times 3}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

v = 3.25 × 10^{7} m/s

and

magnetic force on particle movie in magnetic field

F = Bqv

ma = Bqv

a = \frac{Bqv}{m}  

a =  \frac{0.67\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.25\times 10^7}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a = 3.82 × 10^{18} m/s²

and acceleration in term g

a = \frac{3.82\times 10^{18}}{9.81}  

a = 3.9 × 10^{17} g

acceleration in term g is 3.9 × 10^{17} g.

and

electron moving in circular orbit has centripetal force

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}  

Bqv = \frac{mv^2}{r}  

r = \frac{mv}{Bq}  

r = \frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.25\times 10^7}{0.67\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}  

r = 2.76 × 10^{-4} m

radius of circular orbit is 2.76 × 10^{-4} m

Calculate the force exerted by a mental ball having a mass of 70kg moving with speed of 20m/s&gt;2
lord [1]

Answer:

F = 1400 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 70 kg

It is moving with an acceleration of 20 m/s². We need to find the force exerted by the ball.

Force is given by the product of mass and acceleration. So,

F = ma

F=70\ kg\times \ 20m/s^2\\\\F=1400\ N

So, the force of 1400 N is exerted by a metal ball.
