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

The density of a glass is 2.5 g/cm3. if the glass breaks, what is the density of the smaller pieces​
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Density will remain the same since density is the relationship between mass and volume. As we can see in the equation below.

Ro=m/V

where:

Ro = density = 2.5 [g/cm³]

m = mass [g]

V = volume [cm³]

In such a way that when the glass is broken the small fragments retain the same density ratio. That is, each fragment has a small mass and a small volume. That's why the density remains the same.

Approximately what core temperature is required before hydrogen fusion can begin in a star?
valkas [14]

Answer:

The temperature required is near about 3 million kelvin

Explanation:

The brilliance of the star results from the nuclear reaction that take place in the core of the star and radiate a huge amount of thermal energy resulting from the fusion of hydrogen into helium.

For this reaction to take place, the temperature of the star's core must be near about 3 million kelvin.

The hydrogen atoms collide and starts and the energy from the collision results in the heating of the gas cloud. As the temperature comes to near about 1.5\times 10^{7 {\circ}C, the nuclear fusion reaction takes place in the core of the gas cloud.

The huge amount of thermal energy from the nuclear reaction gives the gas cloud a brilliance resulting in a protostar.

Answer:

X: Low potential energy

Y: High Potential energy

Z: Flow of electrons

Explanation: From the figure, it's obvious that Z is the flow of electrons, as shown by the arrow demonstrating the direction of the flow. Because of this, we can easily nullify choices B and C.

From the figure, we can notice that Y has more energy stored and X has a lot less, so you can conclude that Y has high potential energy while X has low potential energy.
