Answer:

1. Elastic collision

2. Inelastic collision

Explanation:

Elastic collision: collision is said to be elastic if total kinetic energy is not conserved and if there is a rebound after collision

the collision is described by the equation bellow

$m1U1+ m2U2= m1V1+m2V2$

Inelastic collision: this type of collision occurs when the total kinetic energy of a body is conserved or when the bodies sticks together and move with a common velocity

the collision is described by the equation bellow

$m1U1+ m2U2= V(m1+m2)$

The stone, which weighs 400 g, is thrown upwards at a speed of 20 m / s. Climbed to a height of 12 m. Determine: what is equal t

maxonik [38]

Given that,

Mass of the stone, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial speed, u = 20 m/s

It is climbed to a height of 12 m.

To find,

The work done by the resistance force.

Solution,

Let v is the final speed. It can be calculated by using the conservation of energy.

$v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 12} \\\\v=15.33\ m/s$

Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. It can be given as follows :

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.4\times (15.33^2-20^2)\\\\=-32.99\ J$

So, the required work done is 32.99 J.

On a sunny day, a student poured a cup of water on the sidewalk to make a puddle. When he returned later, the puddle was gone. T

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The students conclusion is wrong.

Explanation:

The students conclusion is wrong because liquids can not soak into concrete. The water evaporated because it was a hot sunny day. The water turned into a gas called water vapor.

4.5 billion km, the average separation between the sun and Neptune (report answer in hours). How long does it take light to trav

Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.17 hours

Explanation:

given,

The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km

= 4.5 x 10⁹ Km

= 4.5 x 10¹¹ m

The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.

∴ t = d / V

= 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s

= 15,000 s

= 4.17 h

Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

One year

Explanation:

In Florida, once you have had your learner's license for 1 year without any traffic convictions, you will receive an intermediate license.

The rule for Florida is that if a driver drives safely without any conviction during that year of his trial, he will receive an intermediate license. This means that he is now completely eligible and safe to drive around Florida's roads.

I hope the answer is helpful.

Thanks for asking.
