A small ball of mass 2.00 kilograms is moving at a velocity 1.50 meters/second. It hits a larger, stationary ball of mass 5.00 k

ilograms. What is the kinetic energy of the system after the collision if the collision is elastic?

The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is

                             KE  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                                     = (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)

                                     =    (1 kg)  (2.25 m²/s²)

                                     =        2.25 joules.

Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:

                     Energy is never created or destroyed. 
                     If it seems that some energy disappeared,
                     it actually had to go somewhere.
                     And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
                     it actually had to come from somewhere.

The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision.  The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.

b) When the ball is near its maximum height it experiences a brief gust of wind that reduces its horizontal velocity by 2.50 m/s
fomenos

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 0.64 m.

Explanation:

Initial velocity, u =2.5m/s

The maximum horizontal distance is

R = \frac{u^2}{2g}\\\\R = \frac{2.5\times 2.5}{9.8}\\\\R = 0.64 m

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o
Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field dE at the center of curvature of the arc is

dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta ) <em>(we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )</em>

where r is the radius of curvature.

Now

dQ = \lambda rd\theta,

where \lambda is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta  }{r^2} cos(\theta)

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.

Now, we find \theta_1 and \theta_2. To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length  3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)}  = 0.2076

and this is  

0.2076*2\pi =1.304 radians.

Therefore,

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values  we get:

E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\

\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}

In the woman's mouth if
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

hi mate,

interesting question, first of all the pressure is determined by using the following formula:

Pg = p * G * h  

where p is the density of the liquid, G is the gravity and h is the height difference, in you case you have:

p = 1015 kg/m3

G = 9.8m/s2

h = 0.085 m  

insert these values into the equation above:

Pg = 1015 kg/m3 * 9.8m/s2 * 0.085 m = 849.81 kg·m-1·s-2 or 849.81 pascal

hope it helps, :-)

please mark me as brainliest

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0

Explanation:

Given

Number of protons = 92

Radius of nucleus r_n = 7.4 * 10^{-15} m

Distance of the electrons r_1 = 1.0 * 10^ {-10} m

Part 1

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(7.4* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(1* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3

The net electric field inside a uniform shell of negative charge is zero because the electric flux lines cancel out each other

hence, the solution is

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0
