FOUR USES OF CONCAVE MIRROR:Satellite dishes,headlights of a car, telescopes used for astronomical studies, and shaving mirrors because of there curved and reflective surface.
FIVE USES OF LENSES: Camera lens ,microscopes ,magnifying glass,eyeglasses,projector
Let's be clear: The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.
Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.
After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.
The average speed is 8 miles
Answer:
a) 4.2m/s
b) 5.0m/s
Explanation:
This problem is solved using the principle of conservation of linear momentum which states that in a closed system of colliding bodies, the sum of the total momenta before collision is equal to the sum of the total momenta after collision.
The problem is also an illustration of elastic collision where there is no loss in kinetic energy.
Equation (1) is a mathematical representation of the the principle of conservation of linear momentum for two colliding bodies of masses 
and 
whose respective velocities before collision are 
and 
;
where 
and 
are their respective velocities after collision.
Given;
Note that =0 because the second mass was at rest before the collision.
Also, since the two masses are equal, we can say that 
so that equation (1) is reduced as follows;
m cancels out of both sides of equation (2), and we obtain the following;
a) When 
, we obtain the following by equation(3)
b) As stops moving 
, therefore,
