A 70.0-kg person throws a 0.0480-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 33.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 55.0 kg, c

atches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward with a speed of 3.90 m/s, and the second person is initially at rest. What are the velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged? Disregard the friction between the skates and the ice. (Take the direction the snowball is thrown to be the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer:

The final velocity of the thrower is \bf{3.88~m/s} and the final velocity of the catcher is \bf{0.029~m/s}.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the thrower, m_{t} = 70~Kg.

The mass of the catcher, m_{c} = 55~Kg.

The mass of the ball, m_{b} = 0.0480~Kg.

Initial velocity of the thrower, v_{it} = 3.90~m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v_{fb} = 33.5~m/s

Initial velocity of the catcher, v_{ic} = 0~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the thrower is v_{ft}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& m_{t}v_{ft} + m_{b}v_{fb} = (m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it} - m_{b}v_{fb}}{m_{t}}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(70 + 0.0480)(3.90) - (0.0480)(33.5)}{70}\\&or,& v_{ft} = 3.88~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the catcher is v_{fc}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& (m_{c} + m_{b})v_{fc} = m_{b}v_{it}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{m_{b}v_{it}}{(m_{c} + m_{b})}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{(0.048)(33.5)}{(55.0 + 0.0480)}\\&or,& v_{fc} = 0.029~m/s

Thus, the final velocity of thrower is 3.88~m/s and that for the catcher is 0.029~m/s.

<h2>The temperature of the air is 66.8° C</h2>

Explanation:

From the Newton's  velocity of sound relationship , the velocity of sound is directly proportional to the square root of temperature .

In this case The velocity of sound = frequency x wavelength

= 798 x 0.48 = 383 m/sec

Suppose the temperature at this time = T K

Thus 383 ∝ \sqrt{T}                       I

The velocity of sound is 329 m/s at 273 K ( given )

Thus 329 ∝ \sqrt{273}                   II

Dividing I by II , we have

\frac{383}{329} = \sqrt{\frac{T}{273} }

or \frac{T}{273} = 1.25

and T = 339.8 K  = 66.8° C

What is the resistance of a 3.5 m copper wire (Rho= 1.7x10-8 Ohm·m) that 1 point
VikaD [51]

Answer:

(D)

Explanation:

Given :

l=3.5 m

A=5.26*10^{-6} m^{2}

p=1.7*10^{-8}  ohm.m

Resistance can be calculated as :

R=p\frac{l}{A} \\R=1.7*10^{-8} \frac{3.5}{5.26*10^{-6} }

R=\frac{5.95*10^{-2} }{5.26} \\R=1.13*10^{-2}

Resistance of the wire will be 1.1×10^{-2} ohms

Option D is correct

A centrifuge in a biology laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,400 rev/min. When switched off, it rotates 48.0 times befo
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

- 210 rad/s²

Explanation:

n = frequency of rotation = 3400/60 = 170/3 per sec.

angular velocity  ω ( 0 ) at time 0  = 2π n = 2π x 170/3

angular velocity at time t = ω(t) = 0

now, ω²( t) = w²(o) + 2α Φ ( α = angular acceleration and Φ = angular displacement) = 2π x 48 rad.

0 = ( 2π x 170/3 )² + 2α x 48 x 2π

α = - (2π x 170 x 170 )/ (3 x 3 x 2 x 48 ) = 210 rad / s²

You are singing a song at karaoke and reach a part that requires a louder, more intense sound. What must you do to produce a lou
FrozenT [24]

More energy is used in creating a louder sound from the mouth.

<h3>What must you do to produce a louder sound?</h3>

We use more energy in order to produce a louder sound because energy is the thing that helps in the formation of loud sound. Loudness is dependent on the energy that creates loud sound in the mouth. More energy we apply, more loud sound will produce. Energy is the main factor which gives us a loud sound in each and every instruments. Without, we can't imagine loud sound.

So we can conclude that more energy is used in creating a louder sound from the mouth.
