A 5.20 kg chunk of ice is sliding at 13.5 m/s on the floor of an ice-covered valley when it collides with and sticks to another

5.20 kg chunk of ice that is initially at rest. Since the valley is icy, there is no friction. After the collision, the blocks slide partially up a hillside and then slide back down.
how high above the valley floor will the combined chunks go?

Answer:

The chunk went as high as

2.32m above the valley floor

Explanation:

This type of collision between both ice is an example of inelastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved after the ice stuck together.

Applying the principle of energy conservation for the two ice we have based on the scenery

Momentum before impact = momentum after impact

M1U1+M2U2=(M1+M2)V

Given data

Mass of ice 1 M1= 5.20kg

Mass of ice 2 M2= 5.20kg

velocity of ice 1 before impact U1= 13.5 m/s

velocity of ice 2 before impact U2= 0m/s

Velocity of both ice after impact V=?

Inputting our data into the energy conservation formula to solve for V

5.2*13.5+5.2*0=(10.4)V

70.2+0=10.4V

V=70.2/10.4

V=6.75m/s

Therefore the common velocity of both ice is 6.75m/s

Now after impact the chunk slide up a hill to solve for the height it climbs

Let us use the equation of motion

v²=u²-2gh

The negative sign indicates that the chunk moved against gravity

And assuming g=9.81m/s

Initial velocity of the chunk u=0m/s

Substituting we have

6.75²= 0²-2*9.81*h

45.56=19.62h

h=45.56/19.62

h=2.32m

If displacement covered by a particle is zero then distance cover by it<br>​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

When displacement is zero, the particle may be at rest, therefore, distance travelled = 0.

Again, when displacement is zero, the final position matches with the initial position after some time, but the distance travelled will not be zero.

Question 4 - If Angelica starts out at 30m/s, and in 16 s speeds up to 84 m/s, what is her acceleration?
Triss [41]

Answer:

C. 3.375 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object can be found using the equation:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

In this problem:

u = 30 m/s is the initial velocity of Angelica

v = 84 m/s is the final velocity

t is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{84-30}{16}=3.375 m/s^2

Density of water 1000kgper m^3 What will be the volume of 3500<br>kg water​
skad [1K]

Answer:

<em>The volume of water is 3.5 cubic meter</em>

Explanation:

<u>Density </u>

The density of a substance or material is the mass per unit volume. The density varies with temperature and pressure.

The formula to calculate the density of a substance of mass (m) and volume (V) is:

\displaystyle \rho=\frac{m}{V}

We are given the density of water as \rho=1,000\ kg/m^3.It's required to find the volume of m=3,500 kg of water. Solving for V:

\displaystyle V=\frac{m}{\rho}

\displaystyle V=\frac{3,500}{1,000}

V=3.5\ m^3

The volume of water is 3.5 cubic meter

In just 0.30 s , you compress a spring (spring constant 5000 n/m ), which is initially at its equilibrium length, by 4.0 cm. par
Ierofanga [76]
The average power output is the ratio between the work done to compress the spring, W, and the time taken, t:
P= \frac{W}{t} (1)

The work done is equal to the elastic energy stored by the compressed spring:
W=U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where k=5000 N/m is the spring constant and x=4.0 cm=0.04 m is the compression of the spring. If we substitute the numbers, we find:
W= \frac{1}{2}(5000 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=4 J

And now we can use eq.(1) to calculate the average power output:
P= \frac{W}{t}= \frac{4 J}{0.30 s}  =13.3 W
