Answer:
Explanation:
The football players collide in a completely inelastic collision, in other words they have the same velocity after the collision, this velocity has a magnitude V=1.6m/s.
We need to use the conservation of momentum Law, the total momentum is the same before and after the collision, at the initial point the receiver does not have any speed
(1)
We solve in order to find the receiver mass:
At certain altitude, the temperature of air decrease, The air becomes saturated and water vapour molecules starts condensing.
As the altitude of air increase, the atmospheric pressure decrease due to which the temperature of the air decrease. The water molecules in the atmosphere start condensing, which saturate the air (that is air can no hold water molecules), due to which the water vapour molecules starts condensing and falls on the earth in the form of rain.
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply law of conservation of momentum .
Momentum before collision = momentum after collision .
Momentum before collision = 400 kg m/s
Momentum after collision = 5 x v + 11 x 15
where v is velocity of A after the collision .
5 x v + 11 x 15 = 400
5 v = 400 - 165
5v = 235
v = 47 m /s .
Answer:
The initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
height of the pelican, h = 5.0 m
horizontal distance, X = 8.9 m
The time of flight is given by;

The initial horizontal speed of the pelican is given by;
X = vₓt
vₓ = X / t
vₓ = 8.9 / 1.01
vₓ = 8.81 m/s
Therefore, the initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.
