Suppose a parachutist lands on a high-voltage wire and grabs the wire as she prepares to be rescued, she will not be electrocuted.

<h3>What is Voltage?</h3>

This is referred to as the difference in electric potential between two points or the work done which is needed per unit to move a charge between two points in a circuit.

If she grabs the wire as she prepares to be rescued, she will not be electrocuted because the net electrical potential will be 0.

In a situation where the wire breaks as she holds on to it then she will be electrocuted.

A 5 kg bowling ball with a velocity of +10 m/s collides with a stationary 2 kg bowling pin. If the ball's final velocity is +8 m
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

<h2>The pin's final velocity is 5m/s</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass of ball m1=5kg

initial velocity of ball u1=10m/s

mass of pin m2=2kg

initial velocity of pin u2= 0m/s

final velocity of ball v2=8m/s

final velocity of pin v2=?

Step two:

The expression for elastic collision is given as

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

substituting we have

5*10+2*0=5*8+2*v2

50+0=40+2v2

50-40=2v2

10=2v2

divide both sides by 2

v2=10/2

v2=5m/s

The pin's final velocity is 5m/s
