momentum(p) = mass(m) x velocity(v)

KE = kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

the ratio of the momentum of the SUV to that of the car

$\tt \dfrac{mv}{1.5m\dfrac{2}{3}v }=1:1$

b. the ratio of the KE of the SUV to that of the car

$\tt \dfrac{1/2\times mv^2}{1/2\times 1.5m\times (\dfrac{2}{3}v )^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{1.5m\dfrac{4}{6}v^2 }=1:1$

James has a mass of 98 kg and Basma has a mass of 59 kg. James is running at 3.0 m/s, while Basma is running at 4.0 m/s.

masha68 [24]

(a) James has the most momentum which is 294 kgm/s.

(b) The resultant force acting on Basma is 90.78 N.

<h3>Momentum of each person</h3>

Momentum of James: P = mv = 98 x 3 = 294 kgm/s

Momentum of Basma: P = mv = 59 x 4 = 236 kgm/s

<h3>Resultant force of Basma</h3>

F = ma = mv/t = P/t = 236/2.6 = 90.78 N

<h3>Time for James to stop</h3>

F = P/t

t = P/F

t = 294/90.78

t = 3.2 s

A car traveling at 50 m/s uniformly accelerates to 60 m/s over an 58 second interval. What is the displacement?

yawa3891 [41]

Explanation:

here u = 50m/s

v = 60m/s

t = 58 s

then a = (60-50)/58 m/s2

= 0.17m/s2

now s= ut+1/2at2

so , 50×58+0.5×0.17×(58)^2 m

= 3185.94 m

= 3.18 km

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?

fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as $V_1$ , the relation with the final volume as

$V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1$

$V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1$

$V_2 = 1.00163V_1$

Initial temperature = $21.1\°C$

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

$V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)$

Where $\gamma$ is the volume coefficient of copper $5.1*10^{-5}/C$

$1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))$

$1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)$

$0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761$

$T = 53.0608\°C$

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C

What are the difference between conductor and insulator?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

A conductor allows energy e.g. electric charge or heat to pass through it easily. While an insulator does not let electric current or heat to travel through it.
Insulators have strong molecular bonds. While molecular bonds are very weak in conductors.
Insulators have very low conductivity. While in conductors, it is very high.
Insulators have a very high resistance and therefore the electrons are held together very firmly. The conductors, on the other hand, have a very low resistance.
Insulators do not have any electric field, neither inside nor on the surface. While in conductors, it is found on the surface and continues to be zero in the inner part of the conductor.
