Two ice skaters approach each other at right angles. Skater A has a mass of 32.7 kg and travels in the x direction at 2.3 m/s. S

kater B has a mass of 93.3 kg and is moving in the y direction at 1.51 m/s. They collide and cling together. Find the final speed of the couple. Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

Final speed, v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of skater A, m_A=32.7\ kg

Initial speed of skater A, u_A=2.3i\ m/s (x axis)

Mass of skater B, m_B=93.3\ kg

Initial speed of skater B, u_B=1.51j\ m/s (y axis)

It is mentioned that the two skaters collide and cling together. It is case of inelastic collision in which momentum remains conserved. Let V is the final speed of the couple. It is given by :

m_Au_A+m_Bu_B=(m_A+m_B)V

32.7\times 2.3i+93.3\times 1.51j=(32.7+93.3)V

V=\dfrac{75.21i+140.88j}{126}

V=(0.59i+1.11j)\ m/s

|V|=1.25\ m/s

So, the final speed of the couple is 1.25 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Positive ions have blank protons than electrons
grandymaker [24]
Postitive ions have more protons than electrons, because protons are positively charged. Electrons have a negative charge, so if there were less protons than electrons the job would be negative. If there were the same amount of both, then the positive and negative charges balance each other out, making a neutral charge.

11. An object moves in circular path with constant speed
Temka [501]

Answer:

B. Is its acceleration constant

Explanation:

Uniform circular motion can be described as the motion of an object in a circle at a constant speed. As an object moves in a circle, it is constantly changing its direction. ... An object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed. Nonetheless, it is accelerating due to its change in direction.
