v2 = ?

m1 = 10kg

m2 = 70kg

v1 = 4m/s

E1 = E2

E1 = 1/2 * m1 * v1^2 = 1/2 * 10kg * 4m/s^2 = 80J

E2 = 1/2 * m2 * v2^2 = 80 J

v2 = √(E2/(2 * m2)) = √(80J/(2 * 70kg)) = about 0.76m/s

Answer:

V=0.5m/s

Explanation:

A large 10.kg medicine ball is caught by a 70.kg student on the track team. If the ball was moving at 4.0 m/s, how fast will the student be moving after catching the ball?

taking it stepwisely

This problem can be solved with the knowledge of momentum.

the total momentum before collision must be equal to the total momentum after collusion.

This is an inelastic collision because the object and the boy will stick together after catching the boy.

Therefore

m1u1+m2u2= (m1+m2)V

m1=mass of the medicine ball 10kg

m2= mass of the student,70kg

U1=4m/s

u2=0m/s

V=common velocity after the student catches the medicine ball

10*4+70*0= (10+70)V

40=80V

V=40/80

V=0.5m/s

The student will move with a speed of 0.5m/s after catching the ball.

Why is thermal expansion an important consideration for engineering?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermal expansion is where materials expand while being heated, causing them to take up more space. Some materials expand more than others. But this all happens due to the motion of tiny little molecules. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance.

Thermal expansion is an important consideration for engineering because different materials exhibit changes in size when exposed to heat. Thus, affecting length, width, surface area, volume, shape etc

Give an example of a theory scientists believed for a long time that was eventually proved false
jolli1 [7]
There are so many to choose from, I'll give you two. One is a big one. The other so/so. People used to believe the earth was flat and you would fall off, until Christopher Columbus sailed across. And another interesting one is the vulcan planet theory, which is that there was an extra planet between Mercury and T sun. however it turned out to be false. So there, need anymore just tell me.
