Two atoms collide while moving in a dilute gas. The larger atom has a mass M1 = 6 Daltons and a speed v1 = 200 m/s, while the sm

aller has a mass M2 = 1 Daltons. During the collision both atoms simply bounce off each other. They do not change their speeds, but after the collision they each change their directions, bouncing in the indicated directions. (You may express your results using the mass unit "Daltons". 1 Dalton is approximately equal to the mass of a proton or neutron and is defined as one-twelfth the mass of a single neutral carbon-12 atom in its ground state.)
A. What is the magnitude of the change in the momentum, Δp1, of mass M1?
B. What is the change in the total momentum of the pair?
C. What is the magnitude of the change in the momentum Δp2, of mass M2?

Answer:

a). ΔP1=-2.4 x10^{3} \frac{D*m}{s}

b). Pp=0 F=0

c). ΔP2=2.4 x10^{3} \frac{D*m}{s}

Explanation:

Initial momentum

P_{1}=m_{1}*v_{i1}

Final momentum

P_{1f}=m_{1}*v_{f1}=-m_{1}*v_{i1}

The change of momentum m1 is:

a).

ΔP1=P_{1f}-P_{1}

ΔP1=-m_{1}*v_{i1}-m_{1}*v_{i1}

ΔP1=-2*m_{1}*v_{i1}

ΔP1=-2*6 D*200\frac{m}{s}

ΔP1=-2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

b).

According to the conservation of energy principle, without external forces, the momentum change for the pair equals zero

P=0

Fx=0

c).

ΔP1+ΔP2=0

ΔP2=-ΔP1

ΔP2=--2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

ΔP2=2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

In broad daylight, the size of your pupil is typically 3 mm. In dark situations, it expands to about 7 mm. How much more light c
Sav [3153]

Answer:

31.4 mm²

Explanation:

The ability of a telescope or eye to gather light can be expressed by the formula,

GDP=\pi } \frac{d^{2} }{4}

where d signifies the diameter of the pupil.

In bright daylight, the usual size of the pupil is 3 mm.

GDP_{b} =\pi \frac{3^{2} }{4}

Conversely, in darkness, the diameter typically enlarges to 7 mm.

GDP_{b} =\pi \frac{7^{2} }{4}

This indicates an increase in light-gathering capacity.

Increase=\pi \frac{49}{4} -\pi \frac{9}{4} \\Increase=31.4 mm^{2}

Thus, the amount of light the eye can capture is 31.4 mm².

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
Softa [3030]
The astronaut's speed is described in the sentence. The astronaut moves at a rate of 10 meters each minute. To clarify: speed is defined as distance divided by time and is characterized solely by its magnitude, not its direction. Hence, the 10 meters per minute reflects this. We lack information about the astronaut's directional movement. In contrast to speed, velocity incorporates direction as well; for instance, a velocity of 10m/s due west provides a directional context. Consequently, without specified direction, the value indicated is merely speed.

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Sav [3153]

A bathroom scale operates under gravitational influence. Typically, a reading is captured when your body applies force onto the scale. Yet in this scenario, as both you and the scale move downwards, your body ceases to press against the scale. Consequently, the result is:

<span>The scale reading will instantly drop to zero</span>

A 1000-kg car is moving along a straight road down a 30∘30∘ slope at a constant speed of 20.0m/s20.0m/s. What is the net force a
Softa [3030]

The overall force acting on the vehicle is zero

Explanation:

Let's evaluate the situation separately for the vertical direction and the horizontal direction along the slope.

Considering the direction perpendicular to the slope, two forces are in effect:

  • The weight component acting perpendicular to the slope, mgcos \theta, directed into the slope
  • The normal force N, directed outward from the slope

Equilibrium exists here, indicating the net force in this direction is zero.

Now let’s examine the parallel direction to the slope. We have two forces present:

  • The weight component aligned with the slope, mgsin \theta, directed down the slope
  • The frictional force F_f, acting up the slope

The car moves at a constant speed in this direction, indicating that its acceleration is zero.

a=0

Thus, according to Newton's second law,

F=ma

implying the net force is zero:

F=0
