A student wants to determine the impulse delivered to the lab cart when it runs into the wall. The student measures the mass of

the cart and the velocity of the cart before it hits the wall.
What other measurement is necessary to calculate the impulse delivered to the lab cart?

the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall
the force exerted on the cart by the wall
the time the cart is in contact with the wall
the acceleration of the cart before it hits the wall

Impulse = Force * times and also Impulse = change in momentum.

Given that the mass does not change, change if momentum = mass * (final velocity -  initial velocity)

Given that you know mass and initial velocity (which is the velicity before the cart hits the wall) you need the final velocity (which is the velocity after the cart hits the wall).

Answer: the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.

You hang different masses M from the lower end of a vertical spring and measure the period T for each value of M. You use Excel
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

a)693.821N/m

b)17.5g

Explanation:

We the Period T we can find the constant k,

That is

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

squaring on both sides,

T^2=\frac{4\pi^2}{k}M +\frac{4\pi^2}{k}m_{spring}

where,

M=hanging mass, m = spring mass,

k =spring constant

T =time period

a) So for the equation we can compare, that is,

y=T^2=0.0569x+0.0010

the hanging mass M is x here, so comparing the equation we know that

\frac{4\pi^2}{k}=0.0569\\k= \frac{4\pi^2}{0.0569}\\k=693.821N/m

b) In order to find the mass of the spring we make similar process, so comparing,

\frac{4\pi^2}{k}m =0.001\\m=\frac{0.004k}{4\pi^2} =\frac{0.001*693.821}{4\pi^2}\\m=0.0175kg\\m=17.5g

An x-ray tube is an evacuated glass tube that produces electrons at one end and then accelerates them to very high speeds by the
laila [671]

Answer:

a)  V = 1.866 10² V ,  b)   V = 3.424 10⁵ V , c)   v = 8.1 10⁶ m / s

Explanation:

a) the potential difference is requested to accelerate the electrons up to 2.7% of the speed of light

           v = 0.027 c

           v = 0.027 3 10⁸

           v = 8.1 10⁶ m / s

for this part we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

starting point. When electrons are at rest

           Em₀ = U = q V

final point. Electrons with maximum speed

          Em_f = K = ½ m v2

          Em₀ = Em_{f}

          e V = ½ m v²

          V = ½ m v² / e

let's calculate

          V = ½  9.1 10⁻³¹ (8.1 10⁶)² / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

          V = 1.866 10² V

           V = 1866 V

         

b) if this acceleration protons is the mass of the proton is m_{p} = 1.67 10-27

          V = ½ 1.67 10⁻²⁷ (8.1 10⁶)² / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

           V = 3.424 10⁵ V

           V = 342402 V

c)   this potential difference should give the protons the same speed as the electrons

             v = 8.1 10⁶ m / s

A baseball thrown at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal strikes a building 16.0 m away at a point 8.00 m above the point fro
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

a) v_{o} =16m/s

b) v=9.8m/s

c) \beta =-35.46º

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the ball strikes the building 16m away and its final height is 8m more than the initial

Being said that, we can calculate the initial velocity of the ball

a) First we analyze its horizontal motion

x=v_{ox}t

x=v_{o}cos(60)t

v_{o}=\frac{x}{tcos(60)}=\frac{16m}{tcos(60)} (1)

That would be our first equation

Now, we need to analyze its vertical motion

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

y_{o}+8=y_{o}+v_{o}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

Knowing v_{o} in our first equation (1)

8=\frac{16}{tcos(60)}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2=16tan(60)-8

Solving for t

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(16tan(60)-8)}{9.8} } =2s

So, the ball takes to seconds to get to the other building. Now we can calculate its <u>initial velocity</u>

v_{o}=\frac{16m}{(2s)cos(60)}=16m/s

b) To find the <u>magnitude of the ball just before it strikes the building</u> we need to calculate its x and y components

v_{x}=v_{ox}+at=16cos(60)=8m/s

v_{y}=v_{oy}+gt=16sin(60)-(9.8)(2)=-5.7m/s

So, the magnitude of the velocity is:

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}=\sqrt{(8m/s)^2+(-5.7m/s)^2}=9.8m/s

c) The <u><em>direction of the ball</em></u> is:

\beta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_{y} }{v_{x}})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.7}{8})=-35.46º

Experiments using "optical tweezers" measure the elasticity of individual DNA molecules. For small enough changes in length, the
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 0.3 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on DNA molecule, F=1.5\ nN=1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N

The molecule got stretched by 5 nm, x=5\times 10^{-9}\ m

Let k is the spring constant of that DNA molecule. It can be calculated using the Hooke's law. It says that the force acting on the spring is directly proportional to the distance as :

F=-kx

k=\dfrac{F}{x}

k=\dfrac{1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N}{5\times 10^{-9}\ m}

k = 0.3 N/m

So, the spring constant of the DNA molecule is 0.3 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.
