Block 1 of mass m1 slides along a frictionless floor and into a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 2 of mas

s m2 = 3.0m1. Prior to the collision, the center of mass of the two-block system had a speed of 5.0 m/s. Afterward, what are the speeds of (a) the center of mass and (b) block 2?

<span>Answers: (a) 2.0 m/s (b) 4 m/s

Method:

(a) By conservation of momentum, the velocity of the center of mass is unchanged, i.e., 2.0 m/s.

(b) The velocity of the center of mass = (m1v1+m2v2) / (m1+m2)

Since the second mass is initially at rest, vcom = m1v1 / (m1+m2)

Therefore, the initial v1 = vcom (m1+m2) / m1 = 2.0 m/s x 6 = 12 m/s

Since the second mass is initially at rest, v2f = v1i (2m1 /m1+m2 ) = 12 m/s (2/6) = 4 m/s </span>

A 5.75 × 107 kg battle ship originally at rest fires a 1100-kg artillery shell horizontally with a velocity of 550 m/s. show ans
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

-0.01052 m/s

Explanation:

M = mass of ship = 5.75\times 10^7\ kg

m = mass of shell = 1100 kg

v = velocity of shell = 550 m/s

u = recoil velocity of ship

As linear momentum is conserved

(M - m)u=-mv\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{mv}{M - m}\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{1100\times 550}{5.75\times 10^7+1100}\\\Rightarrow u=-0.01052\ m/s

The recoil velocity of the ship taking the firing direction to be the positive direction is -0.01052 m/s

You go to the hardware store to buy a new 50 ft garden hose. You find you can choose between hoses of ½ inch and 5/8 inch inner
omeli [17]

To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,

Q = V*A

Where,

A= Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,

Q_1 = Q_2

V_1A_1=V_2A_2

Our values are given as,

A_1=\frac{1}{2}^2*\pi=0.785 in^2

A_2=\frac{5}{8}^2*\pi=1.227 in^2

Re-arrange the equation to find the first ratio of rates we have:

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{A_2}{A_1}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.227}{0.785}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=1.56

The second ratio of rates is

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{A_1}{A2}

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{0.785}{1.227}

\frac{V2}{V1}=0.640

Find the current if 55 C of charge pass a particular point in a circuit in 5 seconds.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

<em>The current is 11 Amperes</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electric Current</u>

The electric current is defined as a stream of charged particles that move through a conductive path.

The current intensity can be calculated as:

\displaystyle I=\frac{Q}{t}

Where:

Q = Electric charge

t   = Time taken by the charge to move through the conductor

The current intensity is often measured in Amperes.

The charge passing through a point in a circuit is Q= 55 c during t=5 seconds, thus the current intensity is:

\displaystyle I=\frac{55}{5}

I = 11 Amp

The current is 11 Amperes
