Answer:

(a) The speed of the first particle is 1.75 m/s. The speed of the second particle is 6.9 m/s after the collision.

(b) The speed of the first particle is 3.45 m/s in the negative direction. The speed of the second particle is 1.73 m/s.

(c) The final kinetic energy of the incident particle in part (a) and part(b) is 0.0031 J and 0.011 J, respectively.

Explanation:

(a)

In an elastic collision, both momentum and energy is conserved.

\vec{P}_{initial} = \vec{P}_{final}\\m_1v_1 = m_1v_1' + m_2v_2'\\K_{initial} = K_{final}\\\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1'^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2'^2

Combining these equations will give the speed of the second particle.

v_2' = \frac{2m_1}{m_1 + m_2}v_1 = \frac{2*2}{2+1}(5.2) = 6.9~m/s

We can use this to find the speed of the first particle.

m_1v_1 = m_1v_1' + m_2v_2'\\2(5.2) = 2v_1' + (1)(6.9)\\v_1' = 1.75~m/s

(b)

If m_2 = 10g.

v_2' = \frac{2m_1}{m_1 + m_2}v_1 = \frac{2*2}{2+10}(5.2) = 1.73~m/s

m_1v_1 = m_1v_1' + m_2v_2'\\2(5.2) = 2v_1' + (10)(1.73)\\v_1' = -3.45~m/s

The minus sign indicates that the first particle turns back after the collision.

(c)

The final kinetic energy of the particle in part (a) and part (b) is

K_a = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1'^2 = \frac{1}{2}(2\times10^{-3})(1.75)^2 = 0.0031 ~J\\K_b = \frac{1}{2}m_2v_1'^2 = \frac{1}{2}(2\times10^{-3})(3.45)^2 = 0.011~J

vovangra [49]

Answer:

a = 8.951 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

angle = 0.52 radians

μ_s = 0.84

μ_k = 0.48

acceleration = ?

using

F +  f = m a

mg sin θ +  μk mg cos θ = m a

a = g sin θ  + μk g cos θ

a = 9.8 x  sin 0.52 + 0.48 x 9.8 x  cos 0.52

a = 4.869 + 4.082

a = 8.951 m/s²

the magnitude of acceleration is a = 8.951 m/s²

The acceleration of an object would increase if there was an increase in the
xxMikexx [17]

As per Newton's II law we know that

F_{net} = ma

here we know that

F_{net} = F_{ap} - F_f

so here we will have

a = \frac{F_{ap} - F_f}{m}

so here if we need to increase the acceleration we need to increase the applied force while on increasing the mass or on increasing the friction force the acceleration will decrease.

So here correct answer will be

<em>A) force on the object.</em>

For what absolute value of the phase angle does a source deliver 71 % of the maximum possible power to an RLC circuit
kherson [118]

Answer: the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°

Explanation:

taking a look at expression for the instantaneous electric power in an AC circuit;

P = VI -------let this be equation 1

p is power, v is voltage and I is current;

for maximum power

P_max = V_rms × I_rms --------let this be equ 2

where P_max is the maximum power, V_rms is the rms value of voltage and I_rms is the rms value of current.

Also for average electric power in an AC circuit

P_avg = V_rms × I_rms × cos²∅ -------let this be equ 3

where P_avg is the average power and cos∅ is the power factor

now from equation 2;  P_max = V_rms × I_rms

so p_max replaces V_rms × I_rms in equation 3

we now have

P_avg = P_max × cos²∅

so we substitute

expression for the given value of the average power is

P_avg = P_max × 75%

p_avg = P_max.78/100

for the expression of the average electricity in an AC circuit

P_max.78/100 = P_max × cos²∅

78/100 = cos²∅

to get the absolute value of phase angle

∅ = cos⁻¹ ( √(78/100))

∅ =  cos⁻¹ ( 0.8832)

∅ = 27.969 ≈ 28°

Therefore the absolute value of the phase angle is 28°
