2.88 m/s is the velocity afterward.

Explanation:

By using the law of conservation of momentum

Initial momentum = final momentum

\mathrm{m}_{1} \mathrm{u}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2} \mathrm{u}_{2}=\left(\mathrm{m}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2}\right) \times \mathrm{v} \text { equation }(1)

\mathrm{m}_{1}=91.5 \mathrm{kg} \text { is the mass of the first player }\mathrm{m}_{2}=63.5 \mathrm{kg}

\mathrm{m}_{2}=63.5 \mathrm{kg} \text { is the mass of the second player }

\mathrm{u}_{1}=2.73 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} \text { is the initial velocity of the first player (choosing east as positive direction) }

\mathrm{u}_{2}=3.09 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} \text { is the initial velocity of the second player }

v = is their combined velocity afterwards

Solving equation (1) for v

V=\frac{m_{1} u_{2}+m_{2} u_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

\mathrm{V}=\frac{(91.5 \times 2.73)+(63.5 \times 3.09)}{91.5+63.5}

\mathrm{V}=\frac{(249.7+196.2)}{155}

\mathrm{V}=\frac{445.9}{155}

V = 2.88 m/s

Therefore the velocity afterward is <u>2.88 m/s</u>.

A body moves in a straight line. At time, it's acceleration is given by a = 12t + 1. When t =0, the velocity of the body v is 2
madreJ [45]

Answer:

v = 6t² + t + 2, s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t

59 m/s, 64.5 m

Explanation:

a = 12t + 1

v = ∫ a dt

v = 6t² + t + C

At t = 0, v = 2.

2 = 6(0)² + (0) + C

2 = C

Therefore, v = 6t² + t + 2.

s = ∫ v dt

s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t + C

At t = 0, s = 0.

0 = 2(0)³ + ½ (0)² + 2(0) + C

0 = C

Therefore, s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t.

At t = 3:

v = 6(3)² + (3) + 2 = 59

s = 2(3)³ + ½ (3)² + 2(3) = 64.5

Oscilloscope amplitude and frequency problem. Study the above graph. The volts/div dial is set to 2 volts/div and the time/div d
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Amplitude = 8 Volts

Frequency = 0.067 kHz

Explanation:

Note: The missing picture in question is attached for your review.

Given:

Volts/Div = 2 V/div

Time/Div = 5 msec/div

Finding Amplitude:

Now, as you can see in the attached picture, there are 4 division between two peaks of the waveform, so,

Amplitude = 4 div/volts * 2 volts/ div )\\Amplitude = 8 Volts

(Multiplying by 2 V/div because oscilloscope dial is set at 2 V/div)

Finding Frequency:

As can be seen in attached picture, 3 division are there for one complete cycle of waveform,so,

Time Period = 3 div * 5msec /div\\Time Perod = 15 msec

Since,

Frequency = \frac{1}{Time Period}\\Frequency = \frac{1}{15m}\\Frequency = 0.067 kHz

Which statement best describes the movement of electrical current when a capacitor is used in a circuit?
Masteriza [31]

Answer: B.

Capacitors prevent current from moving through a circuit 

Explanation:

If a direct voltage is applied on the capacitor, no conduction current flows through the capacitor if its insulating medium is perfect insulator. This is due to the fact that there are no free charge carriers in such medium. Basically the real insulator contains very few charge carriers and therefore a very small leakage current passes in the capacitor depending on the conductivity of the insulator.

If an alternating voltage is applied on the capacitor, a displacement current passes through the capacitor irrespective of the insulating medium. This current is termed also the capacitive current. It flows because of changing electric displacement with time.
