Lottery balls are thrown into a hopper and are set into motion by air forced through the container. each ball has a mass of 0.00

44 kg. at one instant in time, ball 1 is moving upward with a speed of 1.3 m/s, and ball 2 is moving downward with a speed of 1.66 m/s. if the kinetic energy of the three-ball system at this instant is 0.0268 j, what must be the speed of ball 3?

In this three body system total kinetic energy remains constant:
E_{k} = constant =0.0268 J

E_{k} = E_{k1}+ E_{k2}+ E_{k3}
If we assume that upwards movement is positive and downwards movement is negative the formula is:
E_{k} = E_{k1}- E_{k2}+ E_{k3}

Formula for kinetic energy is:
E_{k} = \frac{m v^{2} }{2}

Now we have:
E_{k} = \frac{m v_{1} ^{2} }{2} -\frac{m v_{2} ^{2} }{2} +\frac{m v_{3} ^{2} }{2} \\ E_{k} = \frac{m}{2} (v_{1} ^{2}-v_{2} ^{2}+v_{3} ^{2}) \\ \\ 0.0268= \frac{0.0044}{2} (1.3 ^{2}-1.66^{2}+v_{3} ^{2}) \\ \\ 0.0536=0.0022(1.69-2.7556+v_{3} ^{2}) \\ \\ v_{3} ^{2}=25.43 \\ \\ v_{3} =+-5.04

We got two solutions: positive and negative. The speed is 5.04 m/s and direction can be upwards and downwards.

State one use and one disadvantage of the expansion of materials when they are heated.
Reil [10]

An example of the use of expansion of materials when they are heated is in

Thermometers. Thermometer is an instrument which is used to measure the

temperature of a place.

It contains mercury which expands as temperature increases. This is used

to accurately determine the temperature of an object.

The disadvantage of expansion of materials when they are heated can be

seen in roads as there is expansion of the surface as a result of heat

exposure leads to roads being rough thereby incurring more costs for

repairs.

A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b
lakkis [162]

Answer:

T = 17.26 ^oC

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

Q_1 = Q_2

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

so we will have

32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)

so we have

(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)

so we have

16.1 T = 277.87

T = 17.26 ^oC
