Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

1. Elastic collisions

2. Inelastic collisions

The conditions for elastic collisions are given below:

a. the momentum is conserved.

b. kinetic energy is conserved.

c. all the forces during the collision are conservative in nature.

The conditions for inelastic collisions are given below:

a. the momentum is conserved.

b. the mechanical energy is conserved.

c. all or some of the forces are non conservative in nature.

When the two glass marbles strikes and bounce off each other, the momentum and kinetic energy both are conserved so it is the example of elastic collision.

Elastic collisions are collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Two <span>glass marbles bounce off each other is an example of an elastic collision. Hope this answers the question.

Evgen [1.6K]

Equation 1 :
m1 : m1a =T
Equation 2:m2 : m2a= F - T

Adding 1 and 2a=0.073

Placing in equation 1

we get T = 218.18N

You toss a ball straight up with an initial speed of 30m/s. How high does it go, and how long is it in the air (neglecting air r

Brut [27]

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball is tossed straight up with an initial speed of 30 m/s

We need to find the height it will go and the time it takes in the air.

At its maximum height, its final speed, v = 0 and it will move under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion :

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u -gt

i.e. u = gt

$t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{30\ m/s}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\t=3.06\ s$

So, the time for upward motion is 3.06 seconds. It means that it will in air for 3.06×2 = 6.12 seconds

Let d is the maximum distance covered by it.

$d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Putting all values

$d=30(3.06)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3.06)^2\\\\d=45.91\ m$

Hence, it will go to a height of 45.91 m and it will in the air for 6.12 seconds.

Why do you think football players are usually large in size?

kiruha [24]

Football players in the NFL are large in size due to their eating habits since as players they have to work out constantly to stay and shape and eat to gain weight and be strong, so its important for them to be strong against their opponents in gameplay. Football players sometimes take steroids which make their muscles stronger and harder, and also gives them a growth spurt but the effects are worse and makes them sicker, high blood pressure, and even more.
