A billiards ball B rests on a horizontal surface and is struck by another billiards ball A of the same mass m = 0.2 kg. Ball A i

s initially moving at 18 m/s and is deflected 28° from its original direction. Assume the collision is elastic. a) find the final velocity vector of each ball, b) find the mechanical energy both before and after the collision.

Answer:

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.2 kg

speed = 18 m/s

angle =  28°

to find out

final velocity and  mechanical energy both before and after the collision

solution

we know that conservation of momentum remain same so in x direction

mv = mv1 cosθ + mv2cosθ

put here value

0.2(18) = 0.2 v1 cos(28) + 0.2 v2 cos(90-28)

3.6 =  0.1765 V1 + 0.09389 v2    ................1

and

in y axis

mv = mv1 sinθ - mv2sinθ

0 = 0.2 v1 sin28 - 0.2 v2 sin(90-28)

0 = 0.09389 v1 - 0.1768 v2   .......................2

from equation 1 and 2

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

so

mechanical energy  before collision = 1/2 mv1² + 1/2 mv2²

mechanical energy before collision = 1/2 (0.2)(18)² + 0

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

and

mechanical energy after collision = 1/2 (0.2)(15.90)² + 1/2 (0.2)(8.46)²

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J

Explain partial eclipse and total eclipse for lunar eclipse in detail and summarise
melomori [17]

Answer:

A total eclipse occurs when the dark silhouette of the Moon completely obscures the intensely bright light of the Sun, allowing the much fainter solar aureole to be visible. During any one eclipse, totality occurs at best only in a narrow track on the surface of Earth. This narrow track is called the path of totality.

A partial lunar eclipse happens when part of the Moon enters Earth's shadow. In a partial eclipse, Earth's shadow appears very dark on the side of the Moon facing Earth.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. What happens to the stored energy if the plate separation is doubled while
marta [7]

Answer:

(c)  As 'd' becomes doubled, energy decreases by the factor of 2

Explanation:

Energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor is given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2\\\\C=\frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{d}\\\\then\\\\U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{d}V^2--(1)\\\\

As capacitor remains connected to the battery so V remains constant. As can be seen from (1) that energy is inversely proportional to the separation between the plates so as 'd' becomes doubled, energy decreases by the factor of 2.
