Suppose the collision between the packages is perfectly elastic. To what height does the package of mass m rebound?

Physics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]2 years ago
7 0

The height, h to which the package of mass m bounces to depends on its initial velocity, v and the acceleration due to gravity, g and is given below:

h = \frac{v^{2}}{2g}

<h3>What are perfectly elastic collision?</h3>

Perfectly elastic collisions are collisions in which the momentum as well as the energy of the colliding bodies is conserved.

In perfectly elastic collisions, the sum of momentum before collision is equal to the momentum after collision.

Also, the sum of kinetic energy before collision is equal to the sum of kinetic energy after collision.

Since some of the Kinetic energy is converted to potential energy of the body;

\frac{mv^{2}}{2} = mgh

h = \frac{v^{2}}{2g}

Therefore, the height to which the package m bounces to depends on its initial velocity and the acceleration due to gravity.

How do you find the speed of an object given its mass and kinetic energy (what is the formula)?
madam [21]
   v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ; 
        
and solve for "v".

______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is:  KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
  
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note:  Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction";  however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since:  a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to                                          the "speed"; 
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  ↔  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; 
___________________________________________________

→ We have:  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE)  ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
   
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ; 
___________________________________________________
    
           →   [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] /  [(½)* (m)]  = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
 to get: 
______________________________________________________
                           →   v²     =   (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
                     
                           →   v²     = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
                          →  √ (v²)  =  √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________

                          →     v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"]; 
       
and solve for "v".

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct option is A.

A) The increased pressure, pushed the molecules closer together, and caused the marshmallow to shrink.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Jayden experimented, she placed the marshmallow in the syringe and sealed the end. When she depressed the plunger of the syringe, the pressure increased and pushed the molecules closer together and causes the marshmallow to shrink.

Why is the ozone layer important?
adoni [48]

Answer:

Ozone is a gas in the atmosphere that protects everything living on the Earth from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun. Without the layer of ozone in the atmosphere, it would be very difficult for anything to survive on the surface.

Explanation:

Ozone layer, also called ozonosphere, region of the upper atmosphere, between roughly 15 and 35 km (9 and 22 miles) above Earth’s surface, containing relatively high concentrations of ozone molecules (O3). Approximately 90 percent of the atmosphere’s ozone occurs in the stratosphere, the region extending from 10–18 km (6–11 miles) to approximately 50 km.

A 5.67-kg block of wood is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 150 N/m. The block is free to slide on a horizontal fr
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

v=0.94 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5.67 kg

k= 150 N/m

m=1 kg

μ = 0.45

The maximum acceleration of upper block can be μ g.

 a= μ g                          ( g = 10 m/s²)

The maximum acceleration of system will ω²X.

ω = natural frequency

X=maximum displacement

For top stop slipping

μ g  =ω²X

We know for spring mass system natural frequency given as

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{M+m}}

By putting the values

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{150}{5.67+1}}

ω = 4.47 rad/s

μ g  =ω²X

By putting the values

0.45 x 10 = 4.47² X

X = 0.2 m

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}kX^2=\dfrac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2

kX^2=(m+M)v^2

150 x 0.2²=6.67 v²

v=0.94 m/s

This is the maximum speed of system.
