What is the formula for momentum?

1 answer:

5 0

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. Thus, P=mv where, P is momentum.m is mass of the body.v is velocity of the body.

Given that the collision is elastic and glider 2 is initially at rest (v2,i =0), please use below Eqs. to explain why

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

Put v2,i =0, in second equation

v2,f= (m2-m1)v2,i + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f = 0 + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f = 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

In this equation coefficient of v1,i is positive so v2,f and v1,i have the same sign.

2 )

Put m1 < m2 and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

As m1-m2 is negative , v1f and v1i will have opposite sign.

3 )

Put m1 > m2 and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

m1 - m2 is positive so v1f and v1i will have same sign.

4 )

Put m1 = m2 and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

= 0 because m1 = m2

So glider 1 will stop because v1,f = 0 .

Two boxes are connected to each other by a string as shown in the figure. The 10-n box slides without friction on the horizontal

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

T=7.4 N hence T<30 N

Explanation:

The figure is likely to be similar to the one attached. Writing the equation for forces we have

F-T=Fa/g where F is the force, T is tension, a is acceleration and g is acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the figures we have the first equation as

30 N - T = (30/9.81)a

Also, we know that T=F*a/g and substituting 10N for F we obtain the second equation as

T = (10/9.81)a

Adding the first and second equations we obtain

30 = 4.077471967

a Hence

$a=\frac {30}{4.077471967}=7.3575 m/s^{2}$

and T=a hence

T is approximately 7.4 N
