What is the difference between each distance traveled and displacement travled

1 answer:

8 0

Displacement is a vector magnitude that depends on the position of the body which is individualistic for the trajectory.

While, Distance is a scalar magnitude that measures over the trajectory.

A 15.0 kg fish swimming at 1.10 m/s suddenly gobbles up a 4.50 kg fish that is initially stationary. Ignore any drag effects of

Nana76 [90]

Answer

given.

Mass of big fish = 15 Kg

speed of big fish = 1.10 m/s

mass of the small fish = 4.50 Kg

speed of the fish after eating small fish =?

a) using conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂) V

15 x 1.10 + 4.50 x 0 = (15 + 4.5)V

16.5 = 19.5 V

V = 0.846 m/s

b) Kinetic energy before collision

$KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2$

$KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 15 \times 1.1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2\times 0^2$

KE₁ = 9.075 J

Kinetic energy after collision

$KE_2= \dfrac{1}{2}(15+4.5)\times 0.846^2$

KE₂ = 6.98 J

Change in KE = 6.98 - 9.075 = -2.096 J

hence,

mechanical energy was dissipated during this meal = -2.096 J

Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after

adoni [48]

Answer: v = $1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = $1.609 * 10^{-19} c$

mass of an electronic charge = $9.10 * 10^{-31} kg$

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = $\frac{mv^{2} }{2}$ , potential energy = qV

hence, $\frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV$

$\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31} * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$
