After the collision the magnitude of the momentum of the system is Mv

Given:

mass of 1st object = M

speed of 1st object = v

mass of 2nd object = M

speed of 2nd object = 0

To Find:

magnitude of the momentum after collision

Solution: Product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity; i.e., it has both magnitude and direction. Isaac Newton's second law of motion states that the time rate of change of momentum is equal to the force acting on the particle.

Applying conservation of linear momentum

Mv + M(0) = 2MV

Mv = 2MV

V = v/2

So, after collision momentum is

p = 2MV = 2xMxv/2 = Mv

So, after collision momentum is Mv

disa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration's equation is:

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r} where v is the velocity of the object (moon II) and r is the radius. We have the radius, but we don't have the velocity, and we can't solve for acceleration until we do have it. Assuming moon II is a circle, or close enough to be called a circle, it has a circumference.

C = 2πr. If we can find the circumference of the circle, we can plug in the orbital period for the time, the circumference for the distance, and solve for velocity in d = rt. So let's do that and see what happens.

C = 2(3.14)(9.0 × 10⁷) and

C = d = 5.7 × 10⁸. Plugging in and solving for v:

5.7*10^8=v(3.0*10^5) and

v = 1.9 × 10³. That is the velocity we can use in the centripetal acceleration equation.

a_c=\frac{(1.9*10^3)^2}{9.0*10^7} and

a_c=.040\frac{m}{s^2}

These are fun!

Due to radiation and absorption, what is the maximum flame temperature in a fire?
ludmilkaskok [199]

The maximum flame temperature in a fire is 1500-1600K due to radiation and absorption.

<h3>What do you mean by radiation and absorption?</h3>

In physics, matter (usually electrons bound in atoms) absorbs electromagnetic radiation in order to convert the energy of a photon into the internal energy of the absorber (for example, thermal energy). Attenuation, or the steady decrease in light wave intensity as it travels through a medium, is a prominent effect. In some circumstances (optics), the medium's transparency changes by a factor that varies as a function of wave intensity, leading to saturable absorption (or nonlinear absorption), even though the absorption of waves typically does not depend on their intensity (linear absorption).

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 49.0 cm . The explorer finds that
iren2701 [21]

Answer: g = 10.0 m/s/s

Explanation:

For a simple pendulum, provided that the angle between the lowest and highest point of  his trajectory be small, the oscillation period is given by the following expression:

T = 2π √L/g , where L = pendulum length, g= accelleration of gravity.

We can also define the period, as the time needed to complete a full swing, so from the measured  values, we can conclude the following :

T = 140 sec/ 101 cycles = 1.39 sec

Equating both definitions for T, we can solve for g, as follows:

g = 4 π² L / T² = 4π². 0.49 m / (1.39)² = 10.0 m/s/s
