The displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 338.32 km.

<h3>What is displacement of Edward?</h3>

The displacement of Edward can be determined from different methods of vector addition. The method applied here is triangular method.

The angle between the 200 km north west and 150 km west = 60 + 90 = 150⁰

The displacement is the side of the triangle facing 150⁰ = R

R² = a² + b² - 2abcosR

R² = 150² + 200²  - (2x 150 x 200)xcos(150)

R² = 62,500 - (-51,961.52)

R² = 114,461.52

R = 338.32 km

At the bottom of its path, the ball strikes a 2.30 kg steel block initially at rest on a frictionless surface. The collision is
Triss [41]

Answer:

(a). The speed of the ball after collision is 2.01 m/s.

(b). The speed of the block after collision 1.11 m/s.

Explanation:

Suppose, A steel ball of mass 0.500 kg is fastened to a cord that is 50.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released when the cord is horizontal.

Given that,

Mass of steel block = 2.30 kg

Mass of ball = 0.500 kg

Length of cord = 50.0 cm

We need to calculate the initial speed of the ball

Using conservation of energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgl

v=\sqrt{2gl}

Put the value into the formula

u=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times50.0\times10^{-2}}

u=3.13\ m/s

The initial speed of the ball u_{1}=3.13\ m/s

The initial speed of the block u_{2}=0

(a). We need to calculate the speed of the ball after collision

Using formula of collision

v_{1}=(\dfrac{m_{1}-m_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2}})u_{1}+(\dfrac{2m_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2}})u_{2}

Put the value into the formula

v_{1}=(\dfrac{0.5-2.30}{0.5+2.30})\times3.13

v_{1}=-2.01\ m/s

Negative sign shows the opposite direction of initial direction.

(b). We need to calculate the speed of the block after collision

Using formula of collision

v_{2}=(\dfrac{2m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}})u_{1}+(\dfrac{m_{1}-m_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2}})u_{2}

Put the value into the formula

v_{2}=(\dfrac{2\times0.5}{0.5+2.30})\times3.13+0

v_{2}=1.11\ m/s

Hence, (a). The speed of the ball after collision is 2.01 m/s.

(b). The speed of the block after collision 1.11 m/s.
