Answer:

v2 = 2.36 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is simply the the product of mass of an object and it velocity. Generally, when object moves they have momentum . The unit for momentum is kgm/s.

During collision momentum is conserved . This means that

initial momentum = final momentum

If their is an equal and opposite reaction your momentum should be equal to your BFF.

m1 v1 = m2 v2

m1 = 65 kg

v1 = 2.0 m/s

m2 = 55 kg

v2 = ?

m1 v1 = m2 v2

65 × 2 = 55v2

130  = 55 v2

divide both sides by 55

v2 = 130/55

v2 = 2.36363636364

v2 = 2.36 m/s

Answer:

v2 = 2.36m/s

Explanation:

This problem involves the concept of conservation of momentum. The principle states that total momentum before must equal the total momentum after.

Initially total momentu was zero because both were at rest.

Let m1 and m2 represent the masses 65kg and 55kg and let v1 = -2.0m/s and let v1 = velocity of bff

0 = m1v1 + m2v2

0 = 65×(-2.0) + 55v2

55v2 = 65×2

v2 = 65×2/55 = 130/55 = 2.36m/s

v2 = 2.36m/s

A 0.250 kgkg toy is undergoing SHM on the end of a horizontal spring with force constant 300 N/mN/m. When the toy is 0.0120 mm f
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(a) The total energy of the object at any point in its motion is 0.0416 J

(b) The amplitude of the motion is 0.0167 m

(c) The maximum speed attained by the object during its motion is 0.577 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the toy, m = 0.25 kg

force constant of the spring, k = 300 N/m

displacement of the toy, x = 0.012 m

speed of the toy, v = 0.4 m/s

(a) The total energy of the object at any point in its motion

E = ¹/₂mv² + ¹/₂kx²

E = ¹/₂ (0.25)(0.4)² + ¹/₂ (300)(0.012)²

E = 0.0416 J

(b) the amplitude of the motion

E = ¹/₂KA²

A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{K} } \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.0416}{300} } \\\\A = 0.0167 \ m

(c) the maximum speed attained by the object during its motion

E = \frac{1}{2} mv_{max}^2\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} } \\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.0416}{0.25} } \\\\v_{max} = 0.577 \ m/s

The Moon is responsible for what % of the tides that we experience?
Ivenika [448]

Answer: High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

Examine the spectra of the four unknown substances shown below. What can you conclude?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Line spectra are obtained when individual elements are heated using a high-voltage electrical discharge. This heating causes excitation of the element and a subsequent emission of distinct lines of colored light are obtained. Each element has its own unique emission line spectrum; therefore, if any of the tested substances were the same, their spectra would match. However, this is not the case so none of the substances are the same.
 hope it helps!
