Explanation:
Given Data
Total mass=93.5 kg
Rock mass=0.310 kg
Initially wagon speed=0.540 m/s
rock speed=16.5 m/s
To Find
The speed of the wagon
Solution
As the wagon rolls, momentum is given as
P=mv
where
m is mass
v is speed
put the values
P=93.5kg × 0.540 m/s
P =50.49 kg×m/s
Now we have to find the momentum of rock
momentum of rock = mv
momentum of rock = (0.310kg)×(16.5 m/s)
momentum of rock =5.115 kg×m/s
From the conservation of momentum we can find the wagons momentum So
wagon momentum=50.49 -5.115 = 45.375 kg×m/s
Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)
Speed of wagon=45.375/(93.5-0.310)
Speed of wagon= 0.487 m/s
Throwing rock backward,
momentum of wagon = 50.49+5.115 = 55.605 kg×m/s
Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)
speed of wagon = 55.605 kg×m/s/(93.5kg-0.310kg)
speed of wagon= 0.5967 m/s
The main reason why bells are made up of metals instead of wood is because metal is much more dense than wood, meaning that it resonates at much stronger frequencies. Wood has far too much air in it to make loud noises when struck.
a) 2.75 s
The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by the equation
where
h = 4 m is the initial height of the ball
u = 12 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball (upward)
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
We can find the time t at which the ball reaches the ground by substituting y=0 into the equation:
This is a second-order equation. By solving it for t, we find:
t = -0.30 s
t = 2.75 s
The first solution is negative, so we discard it; the second solution, t = 2.75 s, is the one we are looking for.
b) -15.0 m/s (downward)
The final velocity of the ball can be calculated by using the equation:
where
u = 12 m/s is the initial (upward) velocity
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
t is the time
By subsisuting t = 2.75 s, we find the velocity of the ball as it reaches the ground:
And the negative sign means the direction is downward.
E. all of the above
An umbrella tends to move upward on a windy day because _<span>A. buoyancy increases with increasing wind speed </span>
<span>B. air gets trapped under the umbrella and pushes it up </span>
<span>C. the wind pushes it up </span>
<span>D. a low-pressure area is created on top of the umbrella </span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Kinetic energy of ball in motion = 1/2 m v² . Potential energy = 0
Let the minimum distance between the balls be d on collision.
Electric potential energy at that time= k Q²/d , Here kinetic energy is converted into potential energy . So
1/2 m v² = kQ²/d
d =2 k Q² / mv²,= 18 x 10⁹ x Q²/ m v².
