Answer:

A stellar collision.

Explanation:

A stellar collision is the coming together of two stars caused by stellar dynamics within a star cluster, or by the orbital decay of a binary star due to stellar mass loss or gravitational radiation, or by other mechanisms not yet well understood.

1 A 75-g ball is projected from a height of 1.6 m with a horizontal velocity of 2 m/s and bounces from a 400-g smooth plate supp

Tanzania [10]

Answer with explanation:

We are given that

Mass of ball, $m_1=$ 75 g= $\frac{75}{1000}=0075kg$

1 kg=1000 g

Height, $h_1=1.6 m$

$h_2=0.6 m$

Horizontal velocity, $v_x=2 m/s$

Mass of plate $m_2=400 g=\frac{400}{1000}=0.4 kg$

a.Initial velocity of plate, $u_2=0$

Velocity before impact= $u_1=\sqrt{2gh_1}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.6}=5.6m/s$

Where $g=9.8 m/s^2$

Velocity after impact, $v_1=\sqrt{2gh_2}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.6}=3.4m/s$

According to law of conservation of momentum

$m_1u_1+m_2u_1=-m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Substitute the values

$0.075\times 5.6+0=-0.075\times 3.4+0.4v_2$

$0.4v_2=0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4$

$v_2=\frac{0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4}{0.4}=1.69 m/s$

Velocity of plate=1.69 m/s

b.Initial energy= $\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 1.6=1.326 J$

Final energy= $\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v^2_2$

Final energy= $\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 0.6+\frac{1}{2}(0.4)(1.69)^2=1.162 J$

Energy lost due to compact=Initial energy-final energy=1.326-1.162=0.164 J
