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.

Answer:

the pendulum loses momentum and stops because of gravity and wind resistance. it does not violate the law of conservation of energy because it is not gaining any more momentum than what it had started with

A brick is dropped from a big scaffold. What is its velocity after 4.0s?
Flura [38]

The velocity of the brick is 39.2 m/s downward

Explanation:

The motion of the brick is a free fall motion, since the object is affected only by the force of gravity. Therefore, it has a uniformly accelerated motion towards the ground, with constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2.

So, we can find its velocity using the suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the brick in this problem (taking downward as positive direction)

u = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

a=g=9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, its velocity after t = 4.0 s is:

v=0+(9.8)(4.0)=39.2 m/s

Downward, because the sign is positive.

if the Earth's core provides the heat that drives plate tectonics, then what will eventually happen as the Earth's core cools do
Eduardwww [97]
If the Earth's core cools down, then one of the first things that would happen is that plate tectonic activity would slow down. Over time, the Earth would then dry up into this ball of dry soil because the heat of the Earth's core drives water up to the surface. Since the crust would be void of majority of liquid, it would shrink by an unknown amount.

State Pascal’s law. (2) b) The area of one end of a U-tube is 0.01 m2 and that of the other
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Pascal Law's says that:

If the area of one end of a U-tube is A, and the area of the other end is A'. then if we apply a force F in the first end (the one of area A), the force experienced at the other end must be:

F' = F*(A'/A).

b) Now we can apply this to our particular case:

if the area of one end is 0.01m^2, and the area of the other end is 1m^2

Then we have:

A = 0.01m^2

A' = 1m^2

So, if now we apply a force F in the first end, the force experienced at the other end will be:

F' = F*(1m^2/0.01m^2) = F*100

This means that the force in the other end must be 100 times the force in the first end.
