A perfectly elastic collision occurs between a 15.0-kg mass traveling at 3.50 m/s and a 9.00-kg mass traveling at 2.35 m/s. if t

he final velocity of the 9.00-kg mass is 2.80 m/s, what is the final velocity of the 15.0-kg mass?

Momentum is conserved in a collision. Momentum is mass*velocity, so you can find your answer by calculating initial and final momentums and setting them equal to each other.

15kg * 3.50 m/s + 9kg * 2.35 m/s = 73.65 kg m/s

73.65 = 9 * 2.8 + 15x

solve for x
x= 3.23

The final velocity is 3.23 m/s

Which, if any, of the following statements about electric field lines is/are true? A.The electric field is always perpendicular
jonny [76]
The electric field is always perpendicular to the surface outside of a conductor. TRUE

<span> If an electron were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction perpendicular to the field. FALSE, it would move in an anti-parallel direction because its charge is negative </span>
 
<span>Electric field lines originate on positive charge and terminate on negative charge. TRUE ; but they can also go to infinity </span>
 
It is possible for two electric field lines to cross each other.
<span> Usually FALSE; though technically possible at special points where field is zero. </span>
 
If an electron and a positron were in the presence of a very strong electric field, they would move away from each other.
<span> TRUE; one is positive, and one is negative. If the field is strong enough, the action of the field will overcome the mutual attraction between them </span>
 
It is not possible for the electric field to ever be zero. FALSE: it IS possible, inside a conductor for instance
   
If a proton were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction anti-parallel to the field.
<span> FALSE: being positive, it would move in the SAME direction as the field</span>ic

What is the difference between a data table and a graph?
alexandr402 [8]

At the same time, however, you get less detail or less precision in a chart or graph than you do in the table. Imagine the difference between a table of sales figures for a ten-year period and a line graph for that same data. You get a better sense of the overall trend in the graph but not the precise dollar amount.

Help me pls its for my science class i need to show my work
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

P = 5880  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the block, m = 30 kg

The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.

The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :

P=mgh\\\\=30\times 9.8\times 20\\\\=5880\ J

So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880  J.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

3050.6 Litre .

Explanation:

Total time of heart beat = Total time of race  = 2 hrs , 39 minutes and 54 seconds

= 2 x 60 + 39 + 54/60 min

= 120 + 39 + .9 min

= 159.9 min

rate of heart beat = 170 per min

Total no of heart beat during race = 170 x 159.9

volume of blood per kg per beat = 2.5 mL per kg of weight

body weight  = 99 pounds = .4535 x 99  kg = 44.89 kg

volume of blood  per beat = 2.5 mL x 44.89 mL

= 112.225 mL .

Total required volume of blood =  112.225  x 170 x 159.9 mL

= 3050612 mL

= 3050.6 L.

How does a sound wave transfer energy to your ears ?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

A. Particles in air move in circles as the wave moves forward.

B. Particles in air move forward but not backward as the wave moves

forward.

C. Particles in air move up and down as the wave moves forward.

✔ D. Particles in air move forward and backward as the wave moves

forward.

Explanation:

The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.
