How Does Mass Leakage Affect the Velocity of a Cart?

In summary, a Variable Mass type question is a scientific question that investigates the relationship between two variables, where one variable is continuously changing. It is important because it allows scientists to understand cause and effect relationships and make predictions about complex systems. Examples of Variable Mass type questions include inquiries about the effect of temperature on photosynthesis or the relationship between exercise and heart rate. Scientists design experiments by manipulating one variable and observing changes in another variable. However, there are limitations to this type of question, such as not accounting for other influencing factors and the complexity of some systems.

A cart has a load of 100 kg sand at start and it is pulled by a steady resultant force of 100N starting from rest. A hole in the cart causes steady leakage of 1kg/s. Find velocity v of the cart after 50s of motion.

Related to How Does Mass Leakage Affect the Velocity of a Cart?

What is a Variable Mass type question?

A Variable Mass type question is a type of scientific question that involves investigating the relationship between two variables, where one variable is continuously changing or varying. It is also known as a parametric question.

Why is it important to ask Variable Mass type questions?

Variable Mass type questions allow scientists to understand the cause and effect relationship between variables and how one variable affects another. This helps in making predictions and understanding complex systems.

What are some examples of Variable Mass type questions?

Some examples of Variable Mass type questions include: "How does temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis?", "What is the relationship between exercise and heart rate?", and "How does the concentration of a reactant affect the rate of reaction?"

How do scientists design experiments to answer Variable Mass type questions?

Scientists design experiments by manipulating one variable (the independent variable) while keeping all other variables constant. They then observe and measure the changes in the other variable (the dependent variable) to determine the relationship between the two.

What are the limitations of Variable Mass type questions?

One limitation of Variable Mass type questions is that they can only test the relationship between two variables, and do not account for other factors that may also influence the outcome. Additionally, some systems may be too complex to be accurately represented by a single independent variable.
