Answer:

6.5\%\ of\ u_1

Explanation:

m_{1} = Mass of ball = 0.12 kg

tex]m_{2}[/tex] = Mass of bottle = 2.4 kg

u_{1} = Initial velocity of ball

u_{2} = Initial velocity of bottle

v_{1} = Final velocity of ball = -0.3u_{1}

v_{2} = Final velocity of bottle

As linear momentum is conserved

m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}\\\Rightarrow 0.12u_{1}+2.4\times 0=-0.12(0.3u_{1})+2.4v_{2}\\\Rightarrow 0.156u_1=2.4v_2\\\Rightarrow \frac{v_2}{u_1}=0.065\\\Rightarrow v_2=0.065\times 100\times u_1\\\Rightarrow v_2=6.5\%\ of\ u_1

The bottle's speed is 6.5\%\ of\ u_1

Consider a solid metal sphere (S) a few centimeters in diameter and a feather (F). For each quantity in the list that follows, i
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

A) Gravitational Force is greater in S.

B) Time taken to fall a given distance in air will be greater for F.

C) Both will take same time to fall in a vacuum.

D) Total force is greater in S.

Explanation:

(a) In this case, the gravitational force of S will be greater, because Newton's Second Law states that - F = ma, or weight =mg. g is constant. And mass of the solid metal is heavier.

(b) In this case, the time it will take for F to fall from a given distance in air will be greater than that of S, since the air resistance is not negligible (as in the case of S).

(c) In this, It will take same time for S and F because in a vacuum, there are no air particles, so there is no air resistance and gravity is the only force acting and so objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

(d) The total force will be greater in S than F because Force=ma and S is of heavier mass than F.

In the standing waves experiment, the string has a mass of 31.2 g and a length of 0.7 m. The string is connected to a mechanical
mestny [16]

Answer:

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the string = 31.2 g

length of string = 0.7 m

linear density of the string = \dfrac{mass\ of\ string}{length}

linear density of the string = \dfrac{31.2\times 10^{-3}\ kg}{0.7\ m}

linear density of the string = 44.57 × 10⁻³ kg/m

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m
