A 1kg cart slams into a stationary 1kg cart at 2 m/s. The carts stick together and move forward at a speed of 1 m/sl. Determine

finlep [7]

Answer:

No, it is not conserved

Explanation:

Let's calculate the total kinetic energy before the collision and compare it with the total kinetic energy after the collision.

The total kinetic energy before the collision is:

$K_i = K_1 + K_2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2=\frac{1}{2}(1 kg)(2 m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}(1 kg)(0)^2=2 J$

where m1 = m2 = 1 kg are the masses of the two carts, v1=2 m/s is the speed of the first cart, and where v2=0 is the speed of the second cart, which is zero because it is stationary.

After the collision, the two carts stick together with same speed v=1 m/s; their total kinetic energy is

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2)v^2=\frac{1}{2}(1 kg+1kg)(1 m/s)^2=1 J$

So, we see that the kinetic energy was not conserved, because the initial kinetic energy was 2 J while the final kinetic energy is 1 J. This means that this is an inelastic collision, in which only the total momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy does not violate the law of conservation of energy: in fact, the energy lost has simply been converted into another form of energy, such as heat, during the collision.

For this discussion, you will work in groups to answer the questions. In a video game, airplanes move from left to right along t

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

When fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

When fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

When fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

When fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)

Explanation:

All of the parts of the problem are solved in the same way, so let's start with the first point (1,3).

Let's assume that the rocket's trajectory will be a straight line, so what we need to do here is to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane and then find the x-intercept of such a line.

In order to find the line tangent to the graph of the trajectory of the airplane, we need to start by finding the derivative of such a function:

$y=2+\frac{1}{x}$

$y=2+x^{-1}$

$y'=-x^{-2}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=1, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(1)^{2}}$

m=y'=-1

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-3=-1(x-1})$

$y-3=-1x+1$

$y=-x+1+3$

$y=-x+4$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-x+4=0$

and solve for x

x=4

so, when fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2, 2.5)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{4}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{5}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+3$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{4}x+3=0$

and solve for x

x=12

so, when fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2.5, 2.4)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2.5, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2.5)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{4}{25}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}(x-2.5})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}+2.4$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}=0$

and solve for x

$x=\frac{35}{20}$

so, when fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (4, 2.25)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=4, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(4)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{16}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}(x-4})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}+2.25$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}=0$

and solve for x

$x=40$

so, when fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)

The voltage across the terminals of a 9.0 v battery is 8.5 v when the battery is connected to a 60 ω load. part a what is the ba

snow_lady [41]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

i = the current in the circuit., A
R₁ = the internal resistance of the battery, Ω
R₂ = the resistance of the 60 W load, Ω

Because the resistance across the battery is 8.5 V instead of 9.0 V, therefore
(R₁ )(i A) = 9 - 8.5 = (0.5 V)
R₁*i = 0.5 (10

Also,
R₂*i = 9.5 (2)

Because the power dissipated by R₂ is 60 W, therefore
i²R₂ = 60
From (2), obtain
i*9.5 = 60
i = 6.3158 A

From (1), obtain
6.3158*R₁ = 0.5
R₁ = 0.5/6.3158 = 0.0792 Ω = 0.08 Ω (nearest hundredth)

Answer: 0.08 Ω

A 65-kg skier grips a moving rope that is powered by an engine and is pulled at a constant speed to the top of a 230 hill. The s

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The required power by the engine is 33.0 hp

Explanation:

Solution

Newton's second law says that, the net force Fnet on an object of mass m will accelerates the object

Where

Fnet = ma

a = acceleration

θ = angle of incline,

m = mass of the 30 skiers,

f = frictional force

N = normal force

mg sinθ, mg cos θ are components of weight skier

F = the force applied by engine

Now,

The skier mass is 65 kg

We calculate the mass of the 30 skier

m = 30 (65kg) = 1950 kg

Calculate the net force acting on the skiers along the x-axis

Fnet, x=ma

Now,

F-mg sin θ - f = 0

F= mg sin θ + f -----(1)

The kinetic frictional force is denoted by

f = μk N ------(2)

μk = The coefficient of the kinetic friction

We now, calculate the net force acting on the skiers along y axis

Fnet, y = ma

N- mg cos θ = 0

so,

N = mg cos θ

This value is substituted in equation (2)

f = μk mg cos θ

we substitute the value for equation (1)

F = mg sin θ + μk mg cos θ

mg = sinθ + μk cos θ)-----(3)

The next step is to calculate the work done by the engine in pulling the skiers, the incline top by applying the equation 3

W = Fx

= mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

x = the displacement

we now substitute 1950 kg for m, 23° for θ, 0.10 for μk and 320m for x

so,

W = mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

= (1950 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (sin 23° + (0.10) cos 23°) (320 m)

= 2.99 * 10 ^6 J

Then,

The time from minute to s is converted

t =(2.0min) ( 60sec/1.0min) = 120 sec

Now we calculate the power needed by the engine to pull the skiers at the incline top

Thus,

P = W/t

we substitute 2.955 * 10 ^6 J for W and 120 s for t

we have,

P = 2.955 * 10 ^ 6 J/ 120 s

= ( 2.4625 * 10 ^ 4 W) (1.0 hp/746 W)

= 33.0 hp

In conclusion the required power by the engine is 33.0 hp
