A and B, move toward one another. Object A has twice the mass and half the speed of object B. Which of the following describes t
1 answer:
Answer:D
Explanation:
Given
mass of A is twice the mass of B half the velocity of B
Suppose and
be the average force exerted on A and B respectively
and According to Newton third law of motion Force on the body A is equal to Force on body B but opposite in direction as they are action and reaction force.
Thus and option d is correct

There are two conditions necessary for total internal reflection, which is when light hits the boundary between two mediums and reflects back into its original medium:
Light is about to pass from a more optically dense medium (slower) to a less optically dense medium (faster).
The angle of incidence is greater than the defined critical angle for the two mediums, which is given by:
θ = sin⁻¹(/
)
Where θ = critical angle, = refractive index of faster medium,
= refractive index of slower medium.
Choice C gives one of the above necessary conditions.
We are asked to determine the velocity of a rain drop if it falls from 4 km.
To do that we will use the following formula:
Where:
If we assume the initial velocity to be 0 we get:
The acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity:
Now, we take the square root to both sides:
Now, we substitute the values:
solving the operations:
Therefore, the velocity without air drag is 280 m/s.
Part B. we are asked to determine the velocity if there is air drag. To do that we will use the following formula:
Where:
We need to determine the drag force. To do that we will use the following free-body diagram:
Since the velocity that the raindrop reaches is the terminal velocity and its a constant velocity this means that the acceleration is zero and therefore the forces are balanced:
Now, we determine the mass of the raindrop using the following formula:
Where:
The volume is the volume of a sphere, therefore:
Since the diameter of the raindrop is 3 millimeters, the radius is 1.5 mm or 0.0015 meters. Substituting we get:
Solving the operations:
Now, we substitute the values in the formula for the drag force:
Solving the operations:
Now, we substitute in the formula:
Now, we solve for the velocity:
Now, we substitute the values. We will use the area of a circle:
Substituting the radius:
Solving the operations:
Now, we take the square root to both sides:
Therefore, the velocity is 8.4 m/s
