Answer:

The speed of the white puck immediately after the collision is 2.6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two pucks are equal masses.

Speed of black puck = 1.5 m/s

According to given figure,

We need to calculate the speed of the white puck immediately after the collision

Using law of conservation of momentum

$mv=m_{1}v_{1}\cos\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula according to figure

$m\times3=m\times v_{1}\times\cos30+m\times1.5\times\cos60$

$3m=0.866m v_{1}+0.75m$

$v_{1}=\dfrac{3-0.75}{0.866}$

$v_{1}=2.6\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the white puck immediately after the collision is 2.6 m/s.

A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 î + 1.00 ĵ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative

Liula [17]

Question is missing. Found on google:

a) What are the components of the acceleration of the fish?

(b) What is the direction of its acceleration with respect to unit vector î?

(c) If the fish maintains constant acceleration, where is it at t = 30.0 s?

(a) $(0.73, -0.47) m/s^2$

The initial velocity of the fish is

$u=(4.00 i + 1.00 j) m/s$

while the final velocity is

$v=(15.0 i - 6.00 j) m/s$

Initial and final velocity are related by the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

a is the acceleration

t is the time

The time in this case is t = 15.0 s, so we can use the previous equation to find the acceleration, separating the components:

$v_x = u_x + a_x t\\a_x = \frac{v_x-u_x}{t}=\frac{15.0-4.00}{15.0}=0.73 m/s^2$

$v_y = u_y + a_y t\\a_y = \frac{v_y-u_y}{t}=\frac{-6.00-1.00}{15.0}=-0.47 m/s^2$

(b) $-32.8^{\circ}$

The direction of the acceleration vector with respect to i can be found by using the formula

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{a_y}{a_x})$

where

$a_x$ is the horizontal component of the acceleration

$a_y$ is the vertical component of the acceleration

From part a), we have

$a_x = 0.73 m/s^2$

$a_y = -0.47 m/s^2$

Substituting,

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-0.47}{0.73})=-32.8^{\circ}$

(c) $r=(460.5 i - 185.1 j )m$

The initial position of the fish is

$r_0 = (12.0 i -3.60 j) m$

The generic position r at time t is given by

$r= r_0 + ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

$u=(4.00 i + 1.00 j) m/s$ is the initial velocity

$a=(0.73 i -0.47 j) m/s^2$ is the acceleration

Substituting t = 30.0 s, we find the final position of the fish. Separating each component:

$r_x =12.0 + (4.00)(30) + \frac{1}{2}(0.73)(30)^2=460.5 m\\r_y = -3.60 + (1.00)(30) + \frac{1}{2}(-0.47)(30)^2=-185.1 m$

So the final position is

$r=(460.5 i - 185.1 j )m$

Why are the loops on a roller coaster tear-drop shaped instead of circular? It would be simpler to design & build tracks wit

VLD [36.1K]

The centripetal force acting on the rider is much greater if the roller coaster has a circular loop, rather than oval. This is because the change in direction is much sharper throughout the loop, causing the rider to experience a much more intense G-Force throughout the loop.
A teardrop loop features a more gradual change of direction: the cart spends time moving upward, briefly changes direction, and spends the rest of the time moving downward and flattening to a horizontal path. This means the riders experience the majority of the force on the way down as the car levels out, rather than an intense G-force throughout the ride.

It’s for a cross word and mechanical doesn’t fit ☹️

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Circular wave

Explanation:

Circular waves are special types of mechanical waves. They all travel through a material medium or some times a vacuum.

An example of such wave is a ripple caused by dropping a stone in a tank of water.

A wave that propagates in circular form on the surface of water falls into this category.
