Answer:

An expert witness is a person, who has specific knowledge of a particular field, such a person can give specific opinion about a particular evidence found at the scene of crime. An expert can be an ordinary plumber or electrician or may be well qualified forensic scientists, who can give opinion about fields of serology, fingerprinting, DNA analysis and other fields which can be related to criminal investigation.

The moon is smaller and more dense than the Earth, and has less extreme temperature changes.

Lerok [7]

The moon is smaller and more dense than the Earth, and has less extreme temperature changes. The statement presented is True. In terms of temperature, since there is no atmosphere on the moon, then it has less extreme temperature changes. The moon can reach 253 Fahrenheit in the day and -387 Fahrenheit at night.

Two wires A and B with circular cross-section are made of the same metal and have equal lengths, but the resistance of wire A is

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material of wire

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr²

r = radius of wire

Therefore,

R = ρL/πr²

FOR WIRE A:

R₁ = ρ₁L₁/πr₁² -------- equation 1

FOR WIRE B:

R₂ = ρ₂L₂/πr₂² -------- equation 2

It is given that resistance of wire A is four times greater than the resistance of wire B.

R₁ = 4 R₂

using values from equation 1 and equation 2:

ρ₁L₁/πr₁² = 4ρ₂L₂/πr₂²

since, the material and length of both wires are same.

ρ₁ = ρ₂ = ρ

L₁ = L₂ = L

Therefore,

ρL/πr₁² = 4ρL/πr₂²

1/r₁² = 4/r₂²

r₁²/r₂² = 1/4

taking square root on both sides:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5

A .5 kg air puck moves to the right at 3 m/s, colliding with a 1.5kg air puck that is moving to the left at 1.5 m/s.

arlik [135]

Answer:

part (a) v = 1.7 m/s towards right direction

part (b) Not an elastic collision

part (c) F = -228.6 N towards left.

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the first puck = $m_1\ =\ 5\ kg$
Mass of the second puck = $m_2\ =\ 3\ kg$
initial velocity of the first puck = $u_1\ =\ 3\ m/s.$
Initial velocity of the second puck = $u_2\ =\ -1.5\ m/s.$

Part (a)

Pucks are stick together after the collision, therefore the final velocities of the pucks are same as v.

From the conservation of linear momentum,

$m_1u_1\ +\ m_2u_2\ =\ (m_1\ +\ m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ \dfrac{m_1u_1\ +\ m_2u_2}{m_1\ +\ m_2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ \dfrac{5\times 3\ -\ 1.5\times 1.5}{5\ +\ 1.5}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ 1.7\ m/s.$

Direction of the velocity is towards right due to positive velocity.

part (b)

Given,

Final velocity of the second puck = $v_2\ =\ 2.31\ m/s.$

Let $v_1$ be the final velocity of first puck after the collision.

From the conservation of linear momentum,

$m_1u_1\ +\ m_2u_2\ +\ m_1v_1\ +\ m_2v_2\\\Rightarrow v_1\ =\ \dfrac{m_1u_1\ +\ m_2u_2\ -\ m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v_1\ =\ \dfrac{5\times 3\ -\ 1.5\times 1.5\ -\ 1.5\times 2.31}{5}\\\Rightarrow v_1\ =\ 1.857\ m/s.$

For elastic collision, the coefficient of restitution should be 1.

From the equation of the restitution,

$v_1\ -\ v_2\ =\ e(u_2\ -\ u_1)\\\Rightarrow e\ =\ \dfrac{v_1\ -\ v_2}{u_2\ -\ u_1}\\\Rightarrow e\ =\ \dfrac{1.857\ -\ 2.31}{-1.5\ -\ 3}\\\Rightarrow e\ =\ 0.1\\$

Therefore the collision is not elastic collision.

part (c)

Given,

Time of impact = t = $25\times 10^{-3}\ sec$

we know that the impulse on an object due to a force is equal to the change in momentum of the object due to the collision,

$\therefore I\ =\ \ m_1v_1\ -\ m_1u_1\\\Rightarrow F\times t\ =\ m_1(v_1\ -\ u_1)\\\Rightarrow F\ =\ \dfrac{m_1(v_1\ -\ u_1)}{t}\\\Rightarrow F\ =\ \dfrac{5\times (1.857\ -\ 3)}{25\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow F\ =\ -228.6\ N$

Negative sign indicates that the force is towards in the left side of the movement of the first puck.
