A 0.30 kg mass is sliding on a horizontal, frictionless air track with a speed of 4.0 m/s when it instantaneously hits and stick

s to a 2.0 kg mass initially at rest on the track. The spring constant is 100 N/m . The other end of the spring is fixed.a. Determine the following for the 0.30 kg mass immediately before the impact:i. Its linear momentum ii. Its KEb. Determine the following for the combined masses immediately after the impact:i. The linear momentum in. The KEc. Besides the fact that the objects stick together, what other clue lets you know that this was an inelastic collision

Answer

given,

mass of block 1, m = 0.3 Kg

speed of block 1, v = 4 m/s

mass of second block,M = 2 Kg

initial speed of block = 0 m/s

spring constant, k = 100 N/m

a) for block 1

  linear momentum before collision

   P₁ = m v = 0.3 x 4 = 1.2 Kg.m/s

  Kinetic energy

   KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

   KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.3\times 4^2

   KE_1 =2.4\ J

b) After impact

  final velocity calculation

 using conservation of momentum

  m v  = (m + M )v_f

   0.3 x 4 = 2.3 x v_f

    v_f = 0.522 m/s

   Linear momentum

   P₂ = (m+M) v_f

   P₂ = 1.5 x 0.522

   P₂ = 0.783 kg.m/s

   Kinetic energy

   KE_2= \dfrac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2

   KE_2= \dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.3\times 0.522^2

   KE_2=0.313\ J

What is the resistance of : A) A 1.70 m long copper wire that is 0.700 mm in diameter? B) A 20.0 cm long piece of carbon with a
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

(I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of copper wire = 1.70 m

Diameter = 0.700 mm

Length of carbon piece = 20.0 cm

Cross section areaA = (2.00\times10^{-3})^2\ m

(I). We need to calculate the area of copper wire

Using formula of area

A=\pi r^2

A=3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2

We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Put the value into the formula

R=\dfrac{1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.70}{3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2}

R=0.0742\ \Omega

(II). We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Put the value into the formula

R=\dfrac{3.5\times10^{-5}\times20\times10^{-2}}{(2.00\times10^{-3})^2}

R=1.75\ \Omega

Hence, (I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression a=a1
AlekseyPX

Explanation:

A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression :

a=a_1+\dfrac{F}{m}

Where

a_1=3\ m/s^2

F=12\ kg-m/s^2

m = 7 kg

So, the correct step for obtaining a common denominator for the two fractions in the expression in solving for a is (a) and the value of a is :

a=3+\dfrac{12}{7}

a=4.71\ m/s^2

Hence, the correct option is (a).
