wood. b. two bull elk charge each other and lock horns. c. two asteroids collide by a glancing blow, but do not actually hit each other, their only interaction being through gravity. d. two cars with springlike bumpers collide at fairly low speeds.

An elastic collision is one in which the system does not experience a net loss of kinetic energy as a result of the collision. In elastic collisions, momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.

<h3>Explain about the Elastic Collision?</h3>

A collision between two bodies in physics is referred to as an elastic collision if their combined kinetic energy stays constant. There is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms, such as heat, noise, or potential energy, in an ideal, fully elastic collision

An example of an elastic collision is when two balls collide at a pool table. It is an elastic collision when you throw a ball on the ground and it bounces back into your hand because there is no net change in the kinetic energy.

If there is no kinetic energy lost in the impact, the collision is said to be perfectly elastic. A collision is considered to be inelastic if any of the kinetic energy is converted to another kind of energy during the collision.

A 500 lines per mm diffraction grating is illuminated by light of wavelength 580 nm . what is the maximum diffraction order seen
vampirchik [111]

The maximum diffraction order seen is 3.

<h3>What is the maximum diffraction order seen?</h3>

We know that the maximum angle of diffraction Q_m of the furthest bright fringe < Q = 90 degrees.

Here we need to compute the nth bright fringe for which is approximated to 90 degrees.

The angle of nth bright fringe is given by;

sin(Q_m) = n(λ)N

Approximating Q_m ≈ 90 degrees.

sin (90) = nλN

n = sin (90) / (λN)

n = 1 / ((580 x 10⁻⁶)500)

n = 3.5 orders

Since, we knew that Q_m < 90 degrees, we will choose n = 3 as the maximum number of orders.

Thus, the maximum diffraction order seen is 3.

8. A car moving at 35 m/s has 675 joules of KE. What is the mass of the car?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion while potential energy is the energy of a body at rest.
Kinetic energy is given by E=1/2MV² where M is the mass of the body while V is the velocity of the body. 
To get mass we can use the formula M= 2 Ek/V² (Making M the subject)
hence mass  = (2 ×675)÷35²
                     = 1.102 kg

II) A 0.40-kg ball, attached to the end of a horizontal ord, is rotated in a circle of radius 1.3 m on a friction- less horizont
Lostsunrise [7]

Hi there!

In this instance, the object spinning in a horizontal circle will experience a net force in the horizontal direction due to tension.

The net force is equivalent to the centripetal force, so:

∑F = T

mv²/r = T

Solve for v:

v = √rT/m

v = 13.96 m/s
