Answer:

Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.
Being
and
the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is

Since b is initially at rest

After the collision and being
and
the respective velocities, the total momentum is

Both momentums are equal, thus
Solving for 


The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)


The final kinetic energy is


The change of kinetic energy is

true. Because the speed of an object can change from one instant to the next, dividing the total distance covered by the time of travel gives. average speed.
Answer:
the average reaction time is 0.25 seconds.
Answer:
d. 2m to the right of the pivot
Explanation:
m1 = m
m2 = 0.5m
d1 = 1m
d2 = ?
from principle of moment,
CWM = ACWM
m × 1 = 0.5m × d2
d2 = m/0.5m
= 1/0.5
= 2m
The 2nd child will have to sit 2m to the right
The turning effect of a force is known as the moment. It is the product of the force multiplied by the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the pivot or point where the object will turn.
The principle of moments states that when in
equilibrium the total sum of the anti clockwise
moment is equal to the total sum of the
clockwise moment.
When a system is stable or balance it is said to be in equilibrium as all the forces acting on the system cancel each other out.
In equilibrium
Total Anticlockwise Moment = Total
Total Anticlockwise Moment = TotalClockwise Moment
Answer:
55.3 N, 223.3 N
Explanation:
First of all, we can find the angle of the inclined plane.
We have:
L = 5 m the length of the incline
h = 1.2 m is the height
We also have the relationship

where
is the angle of the incline. Solving for the angle,

Now we can find the components of the weight of the box, which is the force that the box exerts on the plank. Calling W = 230 N the weight of the box, we have:
- Component parallel to the incline:

- Component perpendicular to the incline:
