If it is completely elastic, you can calculate the velocity of the second ball from the kinetic energy
<span>v1 = velocity of #1 </span>
<span>v1' = velocity of #1 after collision </span>
<span>v2' = velocity of #2 after collision. </span>
<span>kinetic energy: v1^2 = v1' ^2 + v2' ^2 (1/2 and m cancel out) </span>
<span>5^2 = 4.35^2 + v2' ^2 </span>
<span>v2 = 2.46 m/s <--- ANSWER</span>
Temperature is usually expressed in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. 0 degrees Celsius is equal to 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Room temperature is typically considered 25 degrees Celsius, which is equal to 77 degrees Fahrenheit.
Answer:
0.2 J
Explanation:
The pendulum forms a right triangle, with hypotenuse of 50 cm and base of 30 cm. The height of this triangle can be found with Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
(50 cm)² = a² + (30 cm)²
a = 40 cm
The height of the triangle is 40 cm. The height of the pendulum when it is at the bottom is 50 cm. So the end of the pendulum is lifted by 10 cm. Assuming the mass is concentrated at the end of the pendulum, the potential energy is:
PE = mgh
PE = (0.200 kg) (9.8 N/kg) (0.10 m)
PE = 0.196 J
Rounding to one significant figure, the potential energy is 0.2 J.
