a red, 0.1 kg marble hits a blue, 70 g marble. after the collision the red marble is moving at 10 m/s and the blue marble is mov

By law of conservation of momentum:
Summation of momentum before collision = Summation of momentum after collision

Momentum = mass*velocity

If v and u represents initial and final velocities and assuming that the bred marble was at rest before collision;
m1u1+m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2
But u2 = 0
Then,
m1u1 = m1v1+m2v2
u1 = (m1v1+m2v2)/m1

Where;
u1 = Initial velocity of red marble before collision
m1 = mass of blue marble = 0.1 kg
v1 = Final velocity of red marble = 10 m/s
v2 = Final velocity of blue marble = 15 m/s
m2 = mass of blue marble = 70 g = 0.07 kg

Substituting;
u1 = (0.1*10+0.07*15)/0.1 = 20.5 m/s

Therefore, red marble original velocity before collision was 20.5 m/s.

A 3500 N is force is applied to a spring that has a spring of constant of k= 14000 N/m. How far from equilibrium will the spring
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

F= -K × x

So,

x = \frac{-F}{K}

Now  

x = \frac{-3500}{14000} \\\\

= -0.250m

= 25.0 cm

Hence, the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

A sewing machine uses 1.6kWh of electricity in one day. If electricity costs 9p per unit, what is the total cost in pence of usi
atroni [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 1.6\ units = 14.4p}

Explanation:

Since,

<h3><u>1 kWh = 1 unit</u></h3>

So,

1.6 kWh = 1.6 units

If,

<h3>1 unit = 9p</h3>

1.6 units = 9p × 1.6

1.6 units = 14.4p

Measuring the volume of a ball that is 24cm across how can you set up an equation
BigorU [14]
The volume of every sphere is

           Volume = (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

When you say "across", I think you mean the diameter of the ball.
The radius is half of the diameter = 12 inches.

         Volume = (4/3) (pi) (12 inches)³

                       = (4/3) (pi) (1,728 cubic inches)

                       =    7,238.2 cubic inches .  (rounded)
