Rubber band, spring, bouncing ball, bow string, and many others are made of elastic potential energy, the elastic potential energy is stored into these objects to made them stretchy, and they become kinetic energy when formed back into it's original shape.

If points a and b are connected by a wire with negligible resistance, find the magnitude of the current in the 12.0 v battery.
Marizza181 [45]
V = I * R
Where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. Using Ohm's law, you require resistance to find the current through the wire. Technically, if the wire has a resistance of 0, you will get infinite current. But this isn't possible. Maybe the negligible resistance refers to the battery's internal resistance - not the wire's resistance.

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>

A balloon filled with helium gas has an average density of Q,-0.41 kg/m'. The density of the air is Qa-1.23 kg/m3. The volume of
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a) (Qa*g*Vb)-(Qh*Vb*g)=(Qh*Vb*a)\\where \\g=gravity [m/s^2]\\a=acceleration [m/s^2]

b) a = 19.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

The total mass of the balloon is:

massball=densityheli*volumeheli\\\\massball=0.41 [kg/m^3]*0.048[m^3]\\massball=0.01968[kg]\\\\

The buoyancy force acting on the balloon is:

Fb=densityair*gravity*volumeball\\Fb=1.23[kg/m^3]*9.81[m/s^2]*0.048[m^3]\\Fb=0.579[N]

Now we need to make a free body diagram where we can see the forces that are acting over the balloon and determinate the acceleration.

In the attached image we can see the free body diagram and the equation deducted by Newton's second law

A 0.40-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle having a radius of 1.8 m. At an instant when the stri
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as

T - mg cos40 = F_c

T - (0.40\times 9.8)cos40 = \frac{mv^2}{L}

T = 3 + \frac{0.40\times 5^2}{1.8}

T = 3 + 5.55

T = 8.55 N

A ship 1200m off shore fires a gun. how long after the gun is fired will it be heard on the shore?​
ryzh [129]

Answer:

We know that the speed of sound is 343 m/s in air

we are also given the distance of the boat from the shore

From the provided data, we can easily find the time taken by the sound to reach the shore using the second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 at²

since the acceleration of sound is 0:

s = ut + 1/2 (0)t²

s = ut    <em>(here, u is the speed of sound , s is the distance travelled and t is the time taken)</em>

Replacing the variables in the equation with the values we know

1200 = 343 * t

t = 1200 / 343

t = 3.5 seconds (approx)

Therefore, the sound of the gun will be heard at the shore, 3.5 seconds after being fired
