Answer:

3000 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum, p is a product of mass and velocity hence

p=mv where m is mass and v is velocity.

Change in momentum is given by m(v_f-v_i) where subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the lorry finally comes to rest then the final velocity is zero. Substituting the given figures then

Change in momentum= 6000(0-0.5)=-3000 kg.m/s

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

A circular loop of diameter 10 cm, carrying a current of 0.20 A, is placed inside a magnetic field B⃗ =0.30 Tk^. The normal to t
arlik [135]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque on the loop due to the magnetic field is 4.7\times10^{-4}\ N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 10 cm

Current = 0.20 A

Magnetic field = 0.30 T

Unit vectorn=-0.60\hat{i}-0.080\hat{j}

We need to calculate the torque on the loop

Using formula of torque

\tau=NIAB\sin\theta

Where, N = number of turns

A = area

I = current

B = magnetic field

Put the value into the formula

\tau=1\times0.20\times\pi\times(5\times10^{-2})^2\times0.30\times\sin90^{\circ}

\tau=4.7\times10^{-4}\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the torque on the loop due to the magnetic field is 4.7\times10^{-4}\ N-m.

A light ray strikes a plane mirror at an angle of 23° to the normal. What is the angle between the reflected ray and the mirror?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:67^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given

Ray of light incident on plane making an angle of 23^{\circ} with normal

Thus incident angle i=23^{\circ}

So according to the law of incidence is equal to angle of reflection

\angle i=\angle r

thus \angle r=23^{\circ}

and angle between mirror and reflected ray =90^{\circ}-23^{\circ}

=67^{\circ}

A basketball rolls off a deck that is 3.2 m from the pavement. The basketball lands 0.75 m from the edge of the deck. How fast w
Aneli [31]
The table is almost perfect. BUT ... since she called ay negative, that means she's calling the upward direction positive-y and the downward direction negative-y. In that case, since the ball moves downward from the deck to the pavement, the change in y should be negative 3.2 m. Everything else in her table is fine. Choice-D is the good one.

Now, regarding the speed of the ball ...
How long does it take to fall 3.2 m ?
Use the formula. D = 1/2 g T^2 .

3.2 = 4.9 T^2.

T^2 = 3.2/4.9

T = √(3.2/4.9) = 0.808 second.

The ball hit the pavement 0.808 second after it rolled off the deck. So that's also the time it took to move the 0.75 m horizontally.

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 0.75 m / 0.808 second

Speed = 0.928 meter/second .

A particle leaves the origin with an initial velocity v → = (3.00iˆ) m/s and a constant acceleration a → = (−1.00iˆ − 0.500jˆ) m
tatiyna

Answer:

the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m) and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s) when x reaches its maximum x coordinate

Explanation:

Since the velocity is related with the acceleration and coordinates through

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

where

vx = velocity in the x direction

v₀x = initial velocity in the x direction = 3 m/s

ax = acceleration in the x direction = −1.00 m/s²

x= coordinates in the x-axis

when x reaches its maximum coordinate , then vx=0

thus

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

0 = (3 m/s)² + 2* (−1.00 m/s²)*x

x= 1.5 m

also for the time t

vx = v₀x + ax*t → t= (vx-v₀x)/ax = (0- 3 m/s)/  (−1.00 m/s²) = 3 seconds

for the y coordinates

y = y₀+v₀y*t + 1/2 ay*t²

where

v₀y = initial velocity in the y direction = 0 m/s

ay = acceleration in the x direction = −0.5 m/s²

y= coordinates in the y-axis

y₀= initial coordinate in the y-axis =0

then since y₀=0 and v₀y=0

y = 1/2*ay*t²

y = 1/2*ay*t² = 1/2*(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)² = -2.25 m

and

vy=v₀y+ ay*t= 0+(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)= (-1.5 m/s)

therefore the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m)

and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s)
