a 0.25 kg arrow is moving at 5 m/s and hits a 0.10 kg apple. The apple sticks to the arrow, and both move to the right together.

What is their velocity?

Answer:

The arrow-apple combo will move with a velocity 3.6 m/s to the right.

Explanation:

Use the law of conservation of momentum to solve this problem. In this case the law can be written as follows:

m_{arrow}v_{arrow}+m_{apple}\cdot 0= (m_{arrow}+m_{apple})v_{both}

from which the desired velocity can be isolated:

\frac{m_{arrow}v_{arrow}}{m_{arrow}+m_{apple}}= v_{both}\\v_{both} = \frac{0.25kg\cdot 5\frac{m}{s}}{0.35kg}=3.6\frac{m}{s}

The arrow-apple combo will move with a velocity 3.6 m/s to the right.

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statement is true?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Option (a) is correct.

Falling objects accelerate as they approach the ground.This is because of the force of gravity acting on the falling objects. so the velocity of these objects increases continuously as they approach the ground. the acceleration acting on the falling objects is a constant ( close to the surface of earth) and is called as acceleration due to gravity denoted by g. value of g=9.8 m/s².

Two small plastic spheres each have a mass of 1.1 g and a charge of -50.0 nC . They are placed 2.1 cm apart (center to center).
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 0.051 N

Part b)

Both spheres will follow Newton's III law of action reaction force so both sphere will have same force of equal magnitude.

Explanation:

Part a)

Electrostatic force between two charged spherical balls is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we will have

q_1 = q_2 = 50 nC

here the distance between the center of two balls is given as

r = 2.1 cm = 0.021 m

now we will have

F = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(50 \times 10^{-9})(50 \times 10^{-9})}{0.021^2}

F = 0.051 N

Part b)

Both spheres will follow Newton's III law of action reaction force so both sphere will have same force of equal magnitude.
