<h3>Apparent magnitude of star:</h3>

Apparent magnitude of a star is how bright it appears on earth.

<h3>Absolute magnitude of star:</h3>

Absolute magnitude of star is how bright it appear from a distance of 32.6 light years from earth.

Due to farthest distance of star from earth, it appears smaller. But when we look at it from near it will appear greater in size or magnitude. That is why, we can say that absolute magnitude of some stars is greater than their apparent magnitude.

Consider two balls on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Ball A (with mass ma) is moving toward ball B (with mass mb = 1 kg). B
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Explanation:

When two ball of identical mass collides perfectly elastically , there is exchange of velocity between the two balls .

Here ball be was at rest initially . After collision ball A comes to rest , so there is complete exchange of velocity . Hence ball A must have same mass as that of B . mass of ball A = 1 kg .

b ) Due to complete exchange of velocity , velocity of ball A will be picked up by ball B . Hence velocity of ball B = 3.1416 m /s . Yes it will be moving in the direction of ball A .

c )

In case of perfectly inelastic collision they will become  single mass

total mass = 2 kg

applying conservation of momentum law

their common velocity after collision = 1 x 3.1416 / 2 = 1.57 m /s

d )

Applying conservation of momentum law

initial momentum = Ma x va

they move in opposite direction after collision

their total momentum after collision

1 x va - Ma va

applying law of conservation of momentum

1 x va - Ma va  = Ma va

va = 2Ma va

Ma = .5 kg .
