(a) The velocity of the first ball before the collision with the second ball is 11.18 m/s.

(b) The final velocity of the two balls after the collision is determined as 5.59 m/s.

<h3>Speed of the block when pushed by the spring</h3>

The speed of the block when pushed by the spring is calculated as follows;

K.E = Ux

¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²

mv² = kx²

v² = kx²/m

v² = (25 x 0.5²)/0.05

v² = 125

v = 11.18 m/s

<h3>Final velocity of the two balls after the collision</h3>

The velocity of the two balls after the collision is calculated as follows;

Pi = Pf

where;

  • Pi is initial momentum
  • Pf is final momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = v(m1 + m2)

0.05(11.18) + 0.05(0) = v(0.05 + 0.05)

0.559 = 0.1v

v = 5.59 m/s

Why do we feel the effects of gravity given that the gravitational force is so weak?
almond37 [142]
Any two objects in the universe attract each other. Gravity is the force exerted by earth on you (you exert the same force on earth) but due to the fact that earth has a huge mass compared to yours, you will be attracted to earth only by a small gravitational force.

A materials density is the same , no matter how large or small the sample is or what it’s shape is as long as it is solid unifor
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Density is defined as the relationship between mass and volume, i.e. the following equation can be used:

density = m/v

where:

density [kg/m^3]

m = mass [kg]

v = volume [m^3]

If we change the volume of a body by reducing its size, its mass will also decrease proportionally with a density as seen in the equation.

m = density*v

To understand this concept more clearly, let's use the following example:

We know that the density of water is equal to 1000 [kg/m^3], that is, 1 cubic meter of water contains 1000 kilograms of water, using the equation.

1000 = m /1

m = 1000*1 = 1000 [kg]

Now if we have 500 kilograms of water, that would pass with the volume so that the density remains constant.

1000 = 500/v

v = 500/1000

v = 0.5 [m^3]

We can see that the volume of water has halved. Since the mass of water was reduced by half. That is, the relationship between mass and volume is proportional to the density of the material or substance.

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

A water pump pumps 3 kg of water every second from the bottom of a well to the top of the well 50 m above if the pump used 2000
vesna_86 [32]

watts = work per second.

work is mgh = 3x10x50=1500

watts out = 1500

Watts used = 2000

eff=1500/2000=75%
