If the mass of each ball were the same, but the velocity of ball A were twice as much as ball B, what do you think would happen
Margaret [11]
Given momentum is conserved and is mv

if
mass is the same and va=2vb
then momentum is m(2vb + vb)

if collision is elastic (bounces off)
then m(2vb + vb) = m(vfa + vfb)
3vb = vfa + vfb
meaning final velocities would be different

if collision is inelastic (sticks together)
then m(2vb + vb) = (m+m)vf
meaning final velocity would be same

is this what you wanted?

What conclusion does the student most likely make based
inna [77]

Answer:

option a

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which can travel in vacuum as well as any medium. The speed of light is maximum in vacuum. The electromagnetic wave travels by oscillating electric and magnetic field to the direction of motion of wave.

On the other hand, sound waves are mechanical waves which can only travel in a medium as they can only move forward by oscillating material particles.

Thus, the student should conclude option a.

Guys please help me on the rest of the numbers
wel

Answer:

C. 100

D.3

E. 33.3

Explanation:

C. Mechanical Advantage=Load / Effort

= 200N

--------

100N

Therefore,. = 100

D. I. Velocity Ratio= distance moved by the effort / distance moved by load

= 30cm/10cm

= 3

II. Efficiency= M.A / V.R

= 100/3

= 33.33
