Answer:

H = 109.14 cm

Explanation:

given,                                                            

Assume ,                                                            

Total energy be equal to 1 unit                                

Balance of energy after first collision = 0.78 x 1 unit

                                                             = 0.78 unit

Balance after second collision = 0.78 ^2 unit

                                                   = 0.6084 unit

Balance after third collision = 0.78 ^3 unit

                                              = 0.475 unit

height achieved by the third collision will be equal to energy remained                                        

H be the height achieved after 3 collision

0.475 ( m g h) = m g H                  

H = 0.475 x h                                    

H = 0.475 x 2.3 m                          

H = 1.0914 m                      

H = 109.14 cm

A boat of mass 225 kg drifts along a river at a speed of 21 m/s to the west. what impulse is required to decrease the speed of t
zzz [600]
The impulse required to decrease the speed of the boat is equal to the variation of momentum of the boat:
J=\Delta p=m \Delta v
where
m=225 kg is the mass of the boat
\Delta v=v_f-v_i=15 m/s-21 m/s=-6 m/s is the variation of velocity of the boat
By substituting the numbers into the first equation, we find the impulse:
J=m\Delta v=(225 kg)(-6 m/s)=-1350 N s
and the negative sign means the direction of the impulse is against the direction of motion of the boat.

I don’t know how to answer this question? Can anyone help?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

F=ma

here F is force, m is mass and a is accelaration,

According to the question,

F=3*F= 3F

m= 1/3 of m= m/3

a= ?

so the equation becomes,

3F= m/3*a

3F*3= ma

9F=ma

F= ma/9

Therefore accelaration reduces by 1/9.

I am not very sure.

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.
N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

Heat flows into a gas in a piston and work is performed on the gas by its surroundings. The amount of work done is equal to the
inna [77]

Answer:

The Internal energy of the gas did not change

Explanation:

In this situation the Internal energy of the gas did not change and this is because according the the first law of thermodynamics

Δ U = Q - W  ------ ( 1 )

Δ U  = change in internal energy

Q = heat added

W = work done

since Q = W.  the value of ΔU  will be = zero   i.e. No change
