it is said that a fool and his money ate soon parted.Suppose we place the fool and gold brick in the middle of a frictionless,fr

ozen lake (Galileo's ideal frozen lake).How can the fool rescue himself?Is he still a fool?

He could theoretically push the gold brick away from himself, and due to Newton's 3rd law (Every action has an equal and opposite reaction), the same amount of force would recoil back at him from the gold brick. As a result, he will move in the opposite direction from the gold brick, and since it as an ideal frozen lake (meaning there is no friction present), he will keep going until he reaches the edge of the lake.

And I don't know if he's still a fool. That's up to you.

What are 3 examples of elastic collisions?
Andre45 [30]
QUICK ANSWER

The collision between two gas molecules or billiard balls can be approximated as elastic collisions. Elastic collisions are exchanges of kinetic energy between two bodies having different reference frames in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after collision is equal to the energy before collision.'

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a) v = 0.0496 m / s , b)  v = 0.0957 m / s

Explanation:

a) in this case we have an inelastic collision,

To solve these problems, the most important thing is to define the system formed by all the bodies, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is conserved.

Therefore the system is made up of the ball and the player

initial instant. Before catching the ball

       p₀ = m v₁

final moment. After you have grabbed the ball

      p_{f} = (m + M) v

the moment is preserved

       po = p_{f}

       m v₁ = (m + M) v

       v = m / (m + M) v₁

let's calculate

      v = 0.405 / (0.405 + 69)   8.50

      v = 0.0496 m / s

in the same direction that the ball takes

b) In this case the ball bounces with a speed of V₂ = -7.80 m / s, the negative sign is because it is going in opposite directions

let's write the moment in two times

initial instant. Before the crash

       p₀ = m v₁

try end. Right after the crash

       p_{f} = m v₂ + M v

the moment is preserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

        m v₁ = m v₂ + M v

       v = m (v₁ -v₂) / M

       v = 0.405 /69   (8.50 - (7.80))

       v = 0.0957 m / s

in the initial direction of the ball

A piece of indium with a mass of 16.6 g is submerged in 46.3 cm3 of water in a graduated cylinder. The water level increases to
blagie [28]

Answer:

the density of indium is  7.2 g/cm^3

Explanation:

The computation of the density of indium is shown below:

Given that

Mass = 16.6 g

Volume = 48.6 c,^3 - 46.3cm^3 = 2.3 cm^3

Based on the above information

As we know that

Density = mass  ÷ volume

So,

= 16.6g ÷ 2.3 cm^3

= 7.2 g/cm^3

hence, the density of indium is  7.2 g/cm^3

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

You are a nurse in a hospital. You are told to move a patient through three corridors each measuring 14.33 meters. Because of fr
dimulka [17.4K]

Work done by force is given by formula

W = F.d

now here work done against friction is given so force of friction here is

F_f = 848 N

It moved by three corridors with each measures

d = 14.33 m

so total distance will be

s = 14.33 \times 3 = 43 m

now from above formula of work done we will say

W = 848 \times 43

W = 36464 J

so above is the work done to move three corridors
