The acceleration measures the change in velocity.

Since the acceleration is in the direction opposite to the speed, the velocity eastwards will decrease : its magnitude will first decrease, then it reach 0 m/s, then finally it will increase again.

Maybe you can split up the questions. I will try to answer your first question.

1. In an elastic collision, momentum is conserved. The momentum before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision. This is a consequence of Newton's 3rd law. (Action = Reaction)

2. Momentum: p = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

m₁ mass of ball A
v₁ velocity of ball A
m₂ mass of ball B
v₂ velocity of ball B

Momentum before the collision:
p = 2*9 + 3*(-6) = 18 - 18 = 0

Momentum after the collision:
p = 2*(-9) + 3*6 = -18 + 18 = 0

3: mv + m(-v) = m(-v) + m(v)
the velocities would reverse.

4.This question is not factual since the energy of an elastic collision must also be conserved. The final velocities should be: v₁ = -1 m/s and v₂ = 5 m/s. That said assuming the given velocities were correct:
before collision
p = 10*3 + 5*(-3) = 30 - 15 = 15
after collision:
p = 10*(-2) + 5 * v₂ = 15
v₂ = 7

5.You figure out.

The kitchen in your house measures 10 ft by 10 ft. You need to have 50 footcandles of illumination in the room. How many 60 watt
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u>6 bulbs</u> are needed to illuminate the room.

Explanation:

Given:

Measurement of kitchen (A) = 10 ft by 10 ft = 100 sq. ft

Number of footcandles (n) = 50

Lumens emitted by 1 bulb = 834

Number of bulbs (N) = ?

We are also given,

1 foot candle = 1 lumen/sq. ft

So, 50 foot candles = 50 lumens/sq. ft

Now, for an area of 1 sq. ft 50 lumens are emitted.

So, for an area of 100 sq. ft, lumens emitted = 50 × 100 = 5000 lumens

Now, one bulb emits = 834 lumes

Therefore, number of bulbs required for emitting 5000 lumens is given as:

N=\frac{Number\ of\ lumens}{Number\ of\ lumens\ by\ 1\ bulb}\\\\N=\frac{5000}{834}=5.995\approx6

So, 6 bulbs are needed to illuminate the room.

You are traveling at 14 m/s for 20 seconds. What is your displacement?
enyata [817]

Velocity = 14 m/s

Time = 20 s

Displacement = Velocity×Time = (14×20) m = 280 m

The displacement is 280 m towards the direction of motion.

The capacitance of a fully-charged capacitor is 11 F. Determine the capacitor's capacitance when it is half charged.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The capacitance is 11 F for half and fully charged capacitor.

Explanation:

Capacitance of capacitor is given by the expression

             C=\frac{\epsilon A}{d}

Where ε is the  vacuum permittivity, A is the area of plates and d is the separation between plates.

So capacitance does not depend upon charge and potential. So capacitance fully and half charged capacitors are same.

Here the capacitance is 11 F for half and fully charged capacitor.
