Imagine you have just witnessed a small avalanche on a mountain while skiing, and two slushy snowballs just crashed together in

a perfectly inelastic collision. They are moving as one larger snowball, as a combined mass. Before the collision, snowball A was 7 kg and had initial momentum of –14 kg · m/s; therefore, its velocity must have been ? m/s
Snowball B had initial momentum of 15 kg ∙ m/s, and a velocity of 5 m/s; therefore, its mass must have been ? kg.

Recognizing that momentum is conserved in inelastic collisions, the total momentum of the combined snowballs after the collision must be ? kg · m/s.

We have that the momentum p is given by the formula p=mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity. Since for A p=-14kgm/s and m=7, we have that the velocity is -14/7=-2m/s. Hence its speed is 2 m/s.
For b we have that p=15kgm/s and v=3m/s. Because m=p/v, we have m=3kg.
We also have that the momentum is conserved in this system. Hence, the net sum of the momentum of the 2 snowballs equals the momentum of the single giant ball. Hence, p(total)=p(combined)=-14+15=1kgm/s (momentum is a vector; the positive sign means that it tends to the positive direction).

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m

Explanation:

Given that:

  • magnetic field intensity, B=0.07\ T
  • kinetic energy of electron, KE=1.2\ eV= 1.2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J= 1.92\times 10^{-19}\ J
  • we have mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

<em>Now, form the mathematical expression of Kinetic Energy:</em>

KE= \frac{1}{2} m.v^2

1.92\times 10^{-19}=0.5\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times v^2

v^2=4.2198\times 10^{11}

v=6.496\times 10^6\ m.s^{-1}

<u>from the relation of magnetic and centripetal forces we have the radius as:</u>

r=\frac{m.v}{q.B}

r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 6.496\times 10^6 }{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.07}

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m

The diagram shows four paths from point A to point B.

Path 2.

Displacement is the direction and magnitude of an object from its starting point, so path 2 is the direct route you would need to take to find direction and magnitude.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

Answer:

The ball will be attracted to the negatively charged plate. It'll touch and pick up some electrons from the plate so that the ball becomes negatively charged. Immediately the ball is repelled by the negative plate and is attracted to the positive plate. The ball gives up electrons to the positive plate so that it is positively charged and suddenly attracts to the negative plate again, flies over to it and picks up enough electrons to be repulsed by negative plate and again to the positive plate and that continues.
