Chuck and Jackie stand on separate carts, both of which can slide without friction. The combined mass of Chuck and his car, mcar

tmcart, is identical to the combined mass of Jackie and her cart. Initially, Chuck and Jackie and their carts are at rest.
Chuch then picks up a ball of mass mballmball and throws it to Jackie, who catches it. Assume that the ball travels in a straight line parallel to the ground (ignore the effect of gravity). After Chuck throws the ball, his speed relative to the ground is vc. The speed of the thrown ball relative to the ground is vb. Jackie catches the ball when it reaches her, and she and her cart begin to move. Jackie's speed relative to the ground after she catches the ball is vj.

When answering the questions in this problem, keep the following in mind:
1. The original mass mcartmcart of Chuck and his cart does not include the mass of the ball.
2. The speed of an object is the magnitude of its velocity. An object's speed will always be a non-negative quantity.

Required:
a. Find the relative speed u between Chuck and the ball after Chuck has thrown the ball.
b. What is the speed vb of the ball (relative to the ground) while it is in the air?
c. What is Chuck's speed vc (relative to the ground) after he throws the ball?
d. Find Jackie's speed vj (relative to the ground) after she catches the ball in terms of vb.
e. Find Jackie's speed vj (relative to the ground) after she catches the ball in terms of u.

Explanation:

a.)

We find the relative speed

u = vb + vc

b.)

chuck and the cart are at a rest position

m<em>cart</em>vc = <em>mball</em>vb

from part a above,

vc = u - vb

mcartu = vb(mcart + mball)

make vb the  subject of the equation

vb=\frac{mcartu}{mcart +mball}

c.)

from anser a,

vb = u - vc

then mcart vc = mball(u-vc)

vc= \frac{Mballu}{Mcart+Mball}

d.

Mballvb = (Mcart + Mball)vj

we make vj the subject to get her relative speed

vj=\frac{MballVb}{Mcart+Mball}

e.

given the solution in part d above,

we have

vj=\frac{MballVb}{Mcart+Mball}

remember,

vb = u - vc

such that

Vj = \frac{Mball(u-v)}{Mball +Mcart}

thank you!

A quarterback throws a football at 40km/hr to a receiver 50yd away. How much time does it take the ball to reach the receiver
Akimi4 [234]

Given:

Distance = 50 yard = 45.72 meter

Speed = 40 km/hr = 11.11 m/s

To find:

Time required by ball to reach the receiver = ?

Formula used:

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Solution:

The speed of the ball is given by,

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Thus,

Time = \frac{distance}{speed}

Distance = 50 yard = 45.72 meter

Speed = 40 km/hr = 11.11 m/s

Time = 4.12 second

Hence, ball reaches the receiver in 4.12 second.

The gravitational force produce between any two object kept 2.5×10 to the power 4 km apart is 580N.At what distance should they
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

d = 3.54 x 10⁴ Km

Explanation:

Given,

The distance between the two objects, r = 2.5 x 10⁴  Km

The gravitational force between them, F = 580 N

The gravitational force between the two objects is given by the formula

                                         F = GMm/r² newton

When the gravitational force becomes half, then the distance between them becomes

Let us multiply the above equation by 1/2 on both sides

                                        ( 1/2) F = (1/2) GMm/r²

                                                   =  GMm/2r²

                                                   =  GMm/(√2r)²

Therefore, the distance becomes √2d, when the gravitational force between them becomes half

                                           d = √2r = √2 x 2.5 x 10⁴  Km

                                               = 3.54 x 10⁴  Km

Hence, the two objects should be kept at a distance, d = 3.54 x 10⁴  Km so that the gravitational force becomes half.

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

Variations in the resistivity of blood can give valuable clues about changes in various properties of the blood. Suppose a medic
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Answer:

1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

Explanation:

diameter = 1.5 mm

length, l = 5 cm

Potential difference, V = 9 V

current, i = 230 micro Ampere = 230 x 10^-6 A

radius, r = diameter / 2 = 1.5 / 2 = 0.75 x 10^-3 m

Let the resistivity is ρ.

Area of crossection

A = πr² = 3.14 x 0.75 x 0.75 x 10^-6 = 1.766 x 10^-6 m^2

Use Ohm's law to find the value of resistance

V =  i x R

9 = 230 x 10^-6 x R

R = 39130.4 ohm

Use the formula for the resistance

R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

\rho =\frac{RA}{l}

\rho =\frac{39130.4\times 0.05}{1.766\times 10^{-6}}

ρ = 1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre
