Answer:
0
Explanation:
Since momentum is given by:
Therefore momentum is a vector quantity in the direction of velocity.
- Inelastic collision is the type of collision in which the masses combine after collision and start moving in the direction of the greater momentum but here in this case we have the momentum equal and opposite in direction.
<u>This case can be described mathematically as:</u>
since the mass and velocity are equal:
net momentum:
The correct option is (A) <span>the first law of thermodynamics
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics takes the idea of law of conservation of energy and modify it for thermodynamics systems. It is the total internal energy of the systems equals to the amount of heat added "to" the system and the workdone "by" the system given as:
</span>ΔU = Q - W
<span>Q = heat added TO the system
W = work BY the system
</span>ΔU = Total internal energy
<span>
But the total internal energy is CONSERVED; it means that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another. Hence the correct option is (A).</span>
The impulse J is equal to the magnitude of the force applied to the cannonball times the time it is applied:
But the impulse is also equal to the change in momentum of the cannonball:
If we put the two equations together, we find
And since we know the magnitude of the average force and the time, we can calculate the change in momentum:
