A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.10 m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they both start at the same time, but the hare stops to rest for 2.0 minutes. The tortoise wins by a shell (20 cm)!How long does the race take?What is the length of the race?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a. 126.21secs

b. 12.621 meters.

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of tortoise = 0.1m/s.

Speed of hare = 2m/s.

Solution:

a. Distance traveled = Speed* Time

Speed of tortoise = 0.1 m/s

Speed of hare = 20*0.1 m/s = 2 m/s

2 minutes = 2* 60 s = 120 s

Let the time taken for the race be t seconds.

• Distance moved by tortoise

= (0.1 /s)* (t s)

= 0.1*t meter

•Hare has run for a time of (t - 120)s.

distance moved by hare

= Speed * Time

= (2 m/s)*(t- 120)s

= (2t - 240) meter.

Since hare is 20 cm (0.2 m) behind the tortoise, therefore

(0.1*t - 0.2) meter

= (2t - 240) meter

0.1*t - 0.2 = 2t - 240

Collect like terms

239.8 = 1.9t

Divide both sides by 1.9

t = 126.21secs

The race lasted for 126.21secs

b. Length of race

= Distance moved by tortoise

= 0.1*126.21 meter

= 12.621 meter

The length of the race is 12.621 meters.

A positive charge is 1 m to the left of a negative charge. The positive charge is then moved and placed 1 m to the right of the negative charge. What happens to the electrostatic force between the charges?
The electrostatic force remains attractive, and the magnitude does not change.
The electrostatic force remains repulsive, and the magnitude does not change.
The electrostatic force remains repulsive, but the magnitude changes.
The electrostatic force remains attractive, but the magnitude changes.

Answers

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Let the magnitude of the positive charge = [tex]q_1[/tex] and the magnitude of the negative charge = [tex]q_2[/tex]

Earlier, the distance between both the charge, d = 1m

By using Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the force between two charge

[tex]F=k\frac {q_1 q_2}{d^2}[/tex], where k is a constant.

So, the magnitude of the force in the initial configuration,

[tex]F_i = k\frac {q_1 q_2}{1^2}= k q_1q_2\cdots(i)[/tex]

The nature of the force is attractive, as both the charges are opposite in nature.

On replacing the positive charge from 1m left to 1 m right side of the negative charge, the distance between the charges remains the same, i.e d=1m.

Moreover, the magnitude, and nature of each charge, [tex]q_1[/tex] as well as [tex]q_2[/tex], are remain the same.

So, the magnitude of the force in the final configuration,

[tex]F_f = k\frac {q_1 q_2}{1^2}= k q_1q_2[/tex]

From equation (i), [tex]F_f=F_i[/tex]

The nature of the force is attractive, as both the charges are opposite in nature.

So, the electrostatic force remains attractive, and the magnitude does not change.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

When the electrostatic force lies between the charges so here the force should remain attractive, also the magnitude should remain the same.

Impact on the electrostatic force:

Here we assume the magnitude of the positive charge should be q1 and the magnitude of the negative charge should be q2

Also, the distance between the charge should be d = 1 m

So here we use the columb law

F = kq1q2/d2

here k should be constant

Here the nature of the force should be attractive since the both the charges should be opposite.

Hence, the first option is correct.

A. sinks slightly  

B. rises slightly  

C. floats at the same height  

D. bobs up and down about its old position

Answer:

The correct answer is C)  floats at the same height  

Explanation:

The liquid is incompressible because its density very high and leaves no room for further compaction whether or not there is atmospheric pressure. So when you put a cork on the liquid, pressure or no pressure, there is no displacement hence it floats on the same height regardless of the absence of air.

If the astronaut from question #9 collides with a satellite and comes to a complete stop, where did his momentum go? Explain this in terms of conservation of momentum.

Answers

Answer:

    m v ´- MV = (m + M) v ’

Explanation:

If the astronaut initially has a speed v the satellite has a speed V, we can define a system that is formed by the two bodies, therefore the forces during the collision are internal, so the momentum is conserved

initial instant. Before the crash

          p₀ = m v - MV

final instatne. After the crash, we have two cases

1) inelastic shock

          m_f = (m + M) v '

          p₀ = p_f

         m v ´- MV = (m + M) v ’

2) elastic collision with the astronaut's velocity, zero in this case the moment remains

        m v - MV = mv ’+ Mv’

also the kinetic energy is conserved

       mv'2 + M V2 = mv'2 + m v'2

with these two equations we can find the speed of the cars

Answer:

F = 800 [N]

Explanation:

To be able to calculate this problem we must use the principle of momentum before and after the impact of the hammer.

We must summarize that after the impact the hammer does not move, therefore its speed is zero. In this way, we can propose the following equation.

ΣPbefore = ΣPafter

[tex](m_{1}*v_{1}) - F*t = (m_{1}*v_{2})[/tex]

where:

m₁ = mass of the hammer = 0.15 [m/s]

v₁ = velocity of the hammer = 8 [m/s]

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

t = time = 0.0015 [s]

v₂ = velocity of the hammer after the impact = 0

[tex](0.15*8)-(F*0.0015) = (0.15*0)\\F*0.0015 = 0.15*8\\F = 1.2/(0.0015)\\F = 800 [N][/tex]

Note: The force is taken as negative since it is exerted by the nail on the hammer and this force is directed in the opposite direction to the movement of the hammer.

The total momentum of the given system is equal to zero. Therefore, option (C) is correct.

What is the law of conservation of momentum?

The linear momentum can be described as the product of the mass times the velocity of that object. Conservation of momentum is a property of an object as the total amount of momentum stays the same.

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of the momentum before and after the collision of the objects must be equal.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂v₂

where u₁ and u₂ are initial speed while v₁ & v₂ is final speed and m₁ and m₂ is the mass of the collided objects.

The first ball, m = 8.52 g and v = 2.13 m/s

The momentum of the first ball = 18.15 g.m/s

The second ball is moving in the opposite direction w.r.t. first ball,

The second ball, m = 8.52 g and v = - 2.13 m/s

The momentum of the first ball = - 18.15 g.m/s

The total momentum  of the system = 18.15 + (-18.15) = 0

Therefore, the total momentum of the given system is zero.
