Answer:

Hertz extended Maxwell's idea that light is produced by the interaction of electromagnetic fields. Waves produced a diffraction pattern. Results supported the wave theory of light.

A 5.00 g object moving to the right at 20.0 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 10.0 g object that is initially at re
marusya05 [52]

Answer: a) 6.67cm/s b) 1/2

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the momentum of the bodies after collision. Since the second body was initially at rest this means the initial velocity of the body is "zero".

Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies

u1 and u2 be their velocities respectively

m1 = 5.0g m2 = 10.0g u1 = 20.0cm/s u2 = 0cm/s

Since momentum = mass × velocity

The conservation of momentum of the body will be

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

Note that the body will move with a common velocity (v) after collision which will serve as the velocity of each object after collision.

5(20) + 10(0) = (5+10)v

100 + 0 = 15v

v = 100/15

v = 6.67cm/s

Therefore the velocity of each object after the collision is 6.67cm/s

b) kinectic energy of the 10.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×10×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

kinectic energy of the 5.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×5×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

= 111.22Joules

Fraction of the initial kinetic transferred to the 10g object will be

111.22/222.44

= 1/2

3. In which activity is no work done?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Sleeping, since your brain is working, but your physical body is not moving at all or moving rarely, therefore there is no work done in the activity of sleeping.

The path of the sun on the celestial sphere is called.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

The path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The name "Ecliptic" comes from the fact that eclipses take place along this line.

You read in a science magazine that on the Moon, the speed of a shell leaving the barrel of a modern tank is enough to put the s
olga_2 [115]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the kinematic equations of centrifugal motion, using the constants of the gravitational acceleration of the moon and the radius of this star.

Centrifugal acceleration is determined by

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}

Where,

v = Velocity

r = Radius

From the given data of the moon we know that gravity there is equivalent to

a = 1.62m/s

While the radius of the moon is given by

r = 1.74*10^6m

If we rearrange the function to find the speed we will have to

v = \sqrt{ar}

v = \sqrt{1.6(1.74*10^6)}

v = 1.7km/s

The speed for this to happen is 1.7km/s
