Blocks A (mass 3.00 kg ) and B (mass 9.00 kg ) move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Initially, block B is at rest and blo

ck A is moving toward it at 5.00 m/s . The blocks are equipped with ideal spring bumpers. The collision is head-on, so all motion before and after the collision is along a straight line. Let +x be the direction of the initial motion of block A. Find the velocity of block B when the energy stored in the spring bumpers is maximum.

Answer:

The velocity of block B when the energy stored in the spring bumpers is max = 2.5m/s

Explanation:

An head on collision is aka elastic collision and in elastic collision momentum and energy is conserved that is the total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

Given

Mass of block A mA = 3kg, initial Velocity of block A vA1 = 5m/s, Final velocity = vA2

Mass of block B mB = 9kg, Initial velocity of block B vB1 = 0m/s, Final velocity = vB2

Therefore we have the equation

1)mAvA1 + mBvB1 = mAvA2 + mBvB2

Also in elastic collision between 2 objects, the relative velocities before and after the collision have the same magnitude but opposite direction

vA1 - vB1 = vB2 - vA2

vA2 = vB2 - vA1 when vB1 = 0

Substitute into the equation we have

(3*5)+(9*0) = 3*(vB2-vA1) + (9*vB2)

15 = 3vB2 - 3vA1 +9vB2

15=3vB2 - (3*5) + 9vB2

15+15 = 12vB2

vB2 = 2.5m/s

Select the correct answer.
Triss [41]

Answer:

Jim's kinetic energy is 54.67 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 15 kg

Velocity, V = 2.7 m/s

We need to find the Jim's kinetic energy. We know that when the object is in motion, it has kinetic energy. This energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 15\ kg\times (2.7\ m/s)^2

E = 54.67 J

So, Jim's kinetic energy is 54.67 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

A teacher pushed a 98 newton desk across a floor for a distance of 5 meter he exerted a horizontal force of 20 newton for four s
Rom4ik [11]
Missing question: "how much work is done by the teacher?" (found on internet)

Solution:
The work done to move the desk across the floor is equal to
W=Fd
where F is the horizontal force applied to move the desk, and d is the distance covered by the desk. If we use F=20 N and d=5 m, we find the work done:
W=Fd=(20 N)(5 m)=100 J

A 29.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge while its far end is supported by a cable such that the beam is horizontal.
babunello [35]

26.10 N is the vertical component of the force.

Rx  represents the Horizontal component of force

Ry represents The Vertical component of force

According to the given diagram

Rx - Tcosθ = 0

Rx = Tcosθ

And,

Ry + Tsinθ = mg

Ry = mg - Tsinθ

The horizontal component of force =The Vertical component of force  

Rx = Ry

Tcosθ = mg - Tsinθ

T(cosθ + sinθ) = 29 × 9.8 = 284.2 N

T√2 cosθ = 284.2 N

T × √2 ×0.544 = 284.2 N

T × 0.769 = 284.2 N

T = 370 N (app)

So,

Ry = 284.2 - 370 (sin 57°)

    = 284.2 - 310.3 = -26.10 N

Hence, 26.10 N is the vertical component of the force exerted.
