Answer:
In an elastic collision, the momentum is conserved and the mechanical energy is conserved too.
Explanation:
There are two types of collisions:
- Elastic collision: in an elastic collision, the total momentum before and after the collision is conserved; also, the total mechanical energy before and after the collision is conserved.
- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum before and after the colllision is conserved, while the total mechanical energy is not conserved (in fact, part of the energy is converted into other forms of energy such that thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces)
Answer:B.As the north pole of the electromagnet nears the south pole of the permanent magnet, the current reverses and the poles of the magnets then repel.
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
given
T = 3months = 7.9 × 10⁶s
orbital speed = 88 × 10³m/s
V= 2πr÷T
∴ r = (V×T) ÷ 2π
r = (88km × 7.9 × 10⁶s) ÷ 2π
r = 1.10 × 10⁸km
using kepler's 3rd law
mass of both stars = (seperation diatance)³/(orbital speed)²
M₁ + M₂ = (2r)³/(
year)²
= (1.06 × 10²⁵)/(6.2×10¹³)
1.71×10¹²kg
since M₁ = M₂ =1.71×10¹²kg ÷ 2
M₁ = M₂ = 8.55×10¹¹kg
