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.

Find Vxl and Vyl of a pumpkin launched at a velocity of 55 m/s at an angle of 20 degrees
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

             

Explanation:

is  A projectile is any object on which the only force acting is gravity and air resistance (drag).

Examples of projectiles are:

baseballs and softballs in the air after being hit by the bat

golf balls hit by a club

objects dropped from aircraft, such as people (skydivers), bombs, crates of food being dropped to refugees

objects launched by cannons, such as cannonballs, shells, and circus performers

Once the baseball, softball, golf ball, skydiver, bomb, crate, cannonball, shell, or clown are no longer touching the bat, club, aircraft, or cannon, and are in the air with only gravity and slight air resistance acting on it, then it is a projectile.

Here is an online projectile motion applets to play with, just for fun.

Unless otherwise stated in a particular problem or discussion, we will be ignoring the effects of air resistance.

The key to understanding the motion of projectiles is that the horizontal motion and the vertical motion of the projectile are independent of each other. So we can write separate equations for the displacement of the projectile in the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) directions.

                         

The only common variable between these two equations is t, the time. Because in projectile problems there is usually no acceleration (i.e. we ignore air resistance) in the horizontal direction, we can write

           

The velocity components follow the same equations we used for one-dimensional motion.

                             

Because there is usually no acceleration in the x direction, the x-velocity is constant.

An engineering firm is designing a ski lift. The wire rope needs to travel with a linear velocity of 2.0 meters per second, and
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 2.0 m/s

Angular velocity = 10 rev/m

\omega=10\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}

\omega=1.0472\ rad/s

We need to calculate the diameter of bull-wheel

Using formula of angular velocity

v= r\omega

r=\dfrac{v}{\omega}

Put the value into the formula

r=\dfrac{2.0}{1.0472}

r=1.91\ m

The diameter of the bull-wheel

D=2r

D=2\times1.91

D=3.82\ m

Hence, The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82 m.

A wave is moving at 18 m/s. If its wavelength is 3 meters, what is its frequency?
Vlada [557]

here's the solution,

we know that,

=》

wave \: speed = wavelength \times frequency

so,

=》

18 = 3 \times f

=》

f =  \dfrac{18}{3}

=》

f = 6

frequency = 6 hertz

8. John has to hit a bottle with a ball to win a prize. He throws a 0.4 kg ball with a velocity of 18 m/s. It hits a 0.2 kg bott
nasty-shy [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the <u>bottle.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.

m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.

We are given:

m_1=0.4kg\\u_1=18m/s\\v_1=?m/s\\m_2=0.2kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=25m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

(0.4\times 18)+(0.2\times 0)=(0.4\times v_1)+(0.2\times 25)\\\\v_1=5.5m/s

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.
