Answer:

option B.

Explanation:

given,

Mass of the blocks 1 = M

Mass of the blocks 1 = 2 M.

initial speed of the block 1= v

initial speed of the block 2 = - v

where V is the final speed of the blocks after collision

using conservation of momentum

M v + 2 M (-v) =  (M + 2 M) V

3 M V = - M v    

V = -\dfrac{v}{3}      

velocity of the blocks after collision is equal to -v/3 m/s

hence, the correct answer is option B.

A 100g block is initially compressing a spring 5.0 cm. The spring launches the block 50cm horizontally along the ground with a f
Setler [38]

Answer:

7200 N/m

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion

100g = 0.1 kg

5 cm = 0.05 m

50 cm = 0.5 m

As the block is released from the spring and travelling to height h = 1.5m off the ground, the elastics energy is converted to work of friction force and the potential energy at 1.5 m off the ground

The work by friction force is the product of the force F = 15N itself and the distance s = 0.5 m

W_f = F_fs = 15*0.5 = 7.5 J

Let g = 10 m/s2. The change in potential energy can be calculated as the following:

E_p = mgh = 0.1*10*1.5 = 1.5 J

Therefore, as elastic energy is converted to potential energy and work of friction:

E_e = W_f + E_p

kx^2/2 = 7.5 + 1.5 = 9 J

k = 9*2/x^2 = 18/0.05^2 = 7200 N/m

The heat flux that is applied to one face of a plane wall is q″ = 20 W/m2. The opposite face is exposed to air at temperature 30
Blababa [14]

Answer:

400 W/m^2 and 31℃

Explanation:

The output heat flux q"= 20 W/m^2 (geven)

The output heat flux from.the wall to the air by convection

q"conv = h(ts - t∞)

q"conv = 20(50-30) = 400 W/m^2

Therefor, this case is unsteady and the wall temperature changes with time till the energy balance exist.

ENERGY BALANCE

The input energy must be equal to the output energy for steady state condition. If not the state will be unstaidy or transient.

2. Its noticed that the output heat flux is not that the I put heat flux, therefore the wall tempers will be decreased till the output heat flux is reduced to the value of the given input heat flux

T steady = T∞ +q"/h

= 30 + 20/20 = 31℃

The photographer realizes that with the lens she is currently using, she can't fit the entire landscape she is trying to photogr
dexar [7]

She should use shorter focal length to fit the entire landscape which she is trying to photograph into her picture.

What is focal length?

The focal length is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.

A positive focal length indicates that a system converges light, while a negative focal length indicates that the system diverges light.

For a standard rectilinear lens,

FOV = 2 arctan (x/2f)

FOV ∝ 1 / f

where x is the diagonal of the film.

Focal length (f) and field of view (FOV) of a lens are inversely proportional.

From the equation we can say that,

A shorter focal length gives you a wide angle of view which allows more view to fit in the frame.

Hence,

She should use shorter focal length to fit the entire landscape which she is trying to photograph into her picture.

. While a person lifts a book of mass 2 kg from the floor to a tabletop, 1.5 m above the floor, how much work does the the perso
viktelen [127]

Answer:

a) 29.4 J

b) - 29.4 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the book, m = 2 kg

Height above the floor, h = 1.5 m

Now,

the work done by the person will be = Force applied on the book × displacement of the book

thus,

Work done by the person = mg × h

where, g is the acceleration due to gravity

thus, on substituting the values, we get

Work done by the person = 2 × 9.8 × 1.5 = 29.4 J

now,

for the force applied by the gravitational pull (downwards) the displacement is in opposite direction (upwards) to the force of the gravity.

Thus,

work done by the gravity will be negative

therefore, the work done by the gravity = - mg × h

or

work done by the gravity = - 29.4 J
