According to the given statement Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

<h3>What is collision and momentum?</h3>

The unit of momentum is kg ms -1. Momentum is a vector parameter that is influenced by the object's direction. During collisions involving objects, momentum is a relevant concept. The final velocity before a collision between two objects equals the total motion after the impact (in the absence of external forces).

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

From conservation of momentum

Initial momentum = final momentum

m u +M U =(m+M) V

2000×25 i^ +1500×30 j^​ =(2000+1500) V

V = 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

A horizontal spring is attached to the wall on one end and to a mass on the other end. The mass can slide freely on a frictionle
Radda [10]

Answer:

a) x=0  %T=0,   b) x= A %T=100%,   c) x=-A %T=50%

Explanation:

This is a simple harmonic movement exercise, which is explained by the expression

          x = A cos (wt + Ф)

where angular velocity is related to frequency and period

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

we can write the equation of the oscillation

         x = A cos θ

When seeing the two equations they are equivalent, so what happens with the angle will also happen with time

We are asked for the percentage of the period at three points: at the maximum elongation and at the point of x = 0, in general the distance is measured from the point of the spring without stretching

The period is defined as the time that the system takes to give a complete oscillation, that is, from x = 0 to x = A and return

a) for the unstretched spring point x = 0

In general, both distance and time are measured from this point, so the percentage of time is zero.

         % T = 0

b) for x = A

 let's find the angle

      cos tea = x / A = 1

therefore the angles tea = 2π rad

when the movement reaches the point of 2π radians it begins to repeat so the period is complete

            % T = 100%

c) the point of maximum compression x = -A

let's look for the angles

      cos tea = x / A = -1

therefore the angles tea = π rad

at this point the movement is halfway so it should take half the time

                % T = 50%

A 50kg boy runs at a speed of 10.0m/s and jumpsonto a cart
andriy [413]

Answer:

the mass of the cart is 150 kg

Explanation:

given,

mass of boy(m) = 50 kg

speed of boy (v)= 10 m/s                  

initial velocity of cart (u) = 0                    

final velocity of cart(V) = 2.5 m/s              

mass of the cart(M) = ?                              

m v + M u = (m + M ) V......................(1)

50× 10 + 0 = (50 + M ) 2.5

M =\dfrac{500}{2.5} - 50

M = 150 Kg                                          

hence, the mass of the cart is 150 kg

A swinging pendulum has a total energy of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_i" id="TexFormula1" title="E_i" alt="E_i" align="a
Zolol [24]

Answer:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta} (for small oscillations)

Explanation:

The total energy of the pendulum is equal to:

E_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot (1-\cos \theta)\cdot L

For small oscillations, the equation can be re-arranged into the following form:

E_{1} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-\theta) \cdot L

Where:

\theta = \frac{A}{L^{2}}, measured in radians.

If the amplitude of pendulum oscillations is increase by a factor of 4, the angle of oscillation is 4\theta and the total energy of the pendulum is:

E_{2} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-4\theta)\cdot L

The factor of change is:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx \frac{1 - 4\theta}{1-\theta}

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}
