A5.0 kg object moving at 10 m/s on a frictionless surfaces collides with but does not stick to a 2.0 kg object that is initially at rest. the force on the 2 kg ball has a magnitude of 2000 n and it lasts for 0.01 s. (a) what is the impulse on the 2 kg object

I= 20 i {N.s}

Explanation:

In order to obtain the impulse on the 2 kg ball, you have to apply the equation of Impulse:

I=FΔt

Where I is the impulse vector, F is the net force and Δt is the interval of time when the force is applied.

In this case:

Δt=0.01 s

F= 2000 i N

where i is the unit vector in the x direction.

Replacing the values in the formula:

I=(2000)(0.01)i

Therefore:

I= 20 i {N.s}

electrical potential energy =0.072 j

explanation:

electrical potential energy is given by

u= q δv

q= charge=6 c

δv= potential difference and is given by

δv= e d

e= electric field

d= distance=5 mm=0.005 m

δv=2.4 (0.005)=0.012 v

now electric potential energy= u= q δv

u=6 (0.012)

u=0.072 j
