2) Two ice skaters have masses m1 and m2 and are initially stationary. Their skates are identical. They push against one another
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

m_1 / m_2 = sqrt (1 / 2)

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial velocity of both skaters V_i = 0

- Velocity of skater 1 after push = V_1

- Velocity of skater  after push = V_2

- Distance traveled by skater 1 = s_1

- Distance traveled by skater 2 = s_2

- s_1 = 2*s_2

- Accelerations of both skaters to halt is equal

Find:

What is the ratio m1/m2 of their masses

Solution:

- Apply conservation of momentum for two skaters just before and after the push as follows:

                                              P_i = P_f

                                  0 = m_1*V_1 - m_2*V_2

- Evaluate:                 m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 )

- Apply Conservation of Energy on both skaters as follows:

- Skater 1:

                               0.5*m_1*V_1^2 = u_k*m_1*g*s_1

-Simplify:                      0.5*V_1^2 = u_k*g*(2*s_2)

- Skater 2:

                               0.5*m_2*V_2^2 = u_k*m_2*g*s_2

-Simplify:                      0.5*V_2^2 = u_k*g*s_2

- Divide the two energy equations for skaters:

                                    (V_1 / V_2)^2 = 2

                                    (V_2 / V_1)^2 = 1 / 2

- simplify:                     (V_2 / V_1) = sqrt (1 / 2)

-Hence from earlier momentum conservation results:

                                  m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 ) = sqrt (1 / 2)

An airplanes lands with a velocity of +75 m/s and comes to a stop in 20 seconds. What is the acceleration of the airplane while
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given data,  

The initial velocity of the airplane, u = 75 m/s

The final velocity of the plane, v = 0 m/s

The time period of motion, t = 20 s

Using the I equations of motion

                    v = u + at

                     a = (v - u) / t

                        = (0 - 75) / 20

                        = -3.75 m/s²

The negative sign indicates that the plane is decelerating

Hence, the acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²
