A 4 kg bowling ball moving at 1.4 m/s east impacts a 400 g pin that is stationary. After the impact, the ball is moving at 0.5 m

/s east. Assuming the collision was elastic, what speed does the pin move at after being struck?

The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

<h3>Final speed of the pin</h3>

The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2

where;

  • m is the mass of the objects
  • u is the initial speed of the objects
  • v is the final speed of the objects

4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2

5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2

5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2

3.6 = 0.4v2

v2 = 3.6/0.4

v2 = 9 m/s

Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a) 919 m

b) 183.8 m

Explanation:

140 calories = 140 * 4186 J/calorie = 586040 J

a)When the hiker climbs a mountain, this energy is converted to potential energy, which has the following formula

P = mgh

where m = 65 kg is the mass, g = 9.81 m/s2 is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height that he climbs

586040 = 65*9.81h

h = 586040 / (65*9.81) = 919 m

b) If only 20% of food energy goes into mechanical energy, then the actual potential energy is

586040 * 0.2 = 117208

Similarly, the height that he could climbs is

h = 117208 / (65*9.81) = 183.8 m

How sound is transmitted through the water​
photoshop1234 [79]

Explanation:

When your head is submerged your skull also vibrates with the sound because it is close to the same density and elasticity as water. Below the surface sound wave pass directly through water and into your head. And above the surface the sound waves only vibrates your ear drum unless the sound is very loud.

What happens to kinetic energy when the speed doubles
ELEN [110]

Hello There!

Because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity, when velocity is doubled, kinetic energy is quadrupled.
