1. An object (m = 500 g) with an initial speed of 0.2 m/s collides with another object (m = 1.5 kg) which was at rest before the

collision. Calculate the resulting speed for an inelastic collision (when they stick together). 2. A small object (m = 200 g) collides elastically with a larger object (m = 1000 g), which was at rest before the collision. The incoming speed of the smaller object was 1.0 m/s. The speed of the larger object after the collision is 0.33 m/s. Calculate the resulting speed and determine the direction for the smaller object after the collision when it rebounds. (Watch out for the directions of the motions and use respective signs for the velocities and momentums.)

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

We shall apply conservation of momentum law to solve the problem.

mv = ( M +m) V , m and M are masses of small and large object , v is the velocity of small object before collision and V is the velocity of both the objects together after collision .

.5 x .2 = (1.5 + .5)V

V = .05 m /s

2 ) We shall use formula for velocity of object after elastic collision as follows

v₁ = \frac{(m_1-m_2)}{(m_1+m_2)} u_1+\frac{2m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

m₁ and m₂ are masses of first and second object u₁ and u₂ are their initial velocity and v₁ and v₂ are their final velocity.

Putting the values

= \frac{(200-1000)}{(1000+200)} \times 1 +\frac{2 \times1000\times0}{(1000+200)}

= - .66 m /s

Since the sign is negative so it will be in opposite direction .

A ball is thrown upward. At a height of 10 meters above the ground, the ball has a potential energy of 50 joules (with the poten
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

 h = 20 m

Explanation:

given.

height, h = 10 m

Potential energy at 10 m = 50 J

Kinetic energy at 10 m = 50 J

maximum height the ball will reach, H = ?

Total energy of the system

T E = 50 J + 50 J

T E = 100 J

now,

A h = 10 m

P E = m g h

50 = m g x 10

mg = 5 ..............(1)

at the top most Point the only Potential energy will be acting on the body.

now, TE = Potential energy

 100 = m g h

5 h = 100

 h = 20 m

hence, the maximum height reached by the ball is equal to 20 m.

Weeds are very important agronomically because they reduce the yield of crops in three ways: by competing with the crop for water, light and nutrients, by interfering with crop harvest, and by contaminating harvested products with weed seeds and toxins. Weeds can reduce yield up to 50% and are responsible for millions of dollars in crop losses each year.

It’s biotic factor would be competition as Competition can be defined as an interaction between organisms or species, in which the fitness of one is lowered by the presence of another.

An electric circuit can have no current when a switch is
Finger [1]

Answer:

Open

Explanation:

A switch is a part of a circuit where a connection can be made or broken. By convention, when the switch is "open", the connection is broken and current cannot pass. When the switch is "closed", the connection is complete and current can pass.
