Aspring is compressed between two cars on a frictionless airtrack. car a has four times the mass of car b, ma = 4 mb, while the spring’s mass is negligible. both cars are initially at rest.
when the spring is released, it pushes them away from each other.
which of the following statements correctly describes the velocities, the momenta, and the kinetic energies of the two cars after the spring is released?
note: velocities and momenta are given below as vectors.
1. ~va = −~vb ~pa = −4~pb ka = 16 kb
2. ~va = + 1 5 ~vb ~pa = + 4 5 ~pb ka = 4 25 kb
3. ~va = + 1 4 ~vb ~pa = +~pb ka = 4 kb
4. ~va = − 1 4 ~vb ~pa = −~pb ka = 1 4 kb
5. ~va = −2~vb ~pa = −8~pb ka = 16 kb
6. ~va = −~vb ~pa = −~pb ka = kb
7. ~va = − 1 3 ~vb ~pa = − 2 3 ~pb ka = 4 3 kb
8. ~va = − 1 2 ~vb ~pa = −2~pb ka = kb
9. ~va = −4~vb ~pa = −16~pb ka = 64 kb
10. ~va = − 1 4 ~vb ~pa = −~pb ka = 4 kb

Certain bacteria (such as aquaspirillum magnetotacticum) tend to swim toward the earth’s geographic north pole because they contain tiny particles, called magnetosomes, that are sensitive to a magnetic field. if a transmission line carrying 100 a is laid underwater, at what range of distances would the magnetic field from this line be great enough to interfere with the migration of these bacteria? (assume that a field less than 5% of the earth’s field would have little effect on the bacteria. take the earth’s field to be 5.0 * 10-5 t, and ignore the effects of the seawater.)
