A ball of mass 0.220 kg that is moving with a speed of 6.3 m/s collides head-on and elastically with another ball initially at r

est. Immediately after the collision, the incoming ball bounces backward with a speed of 3.6 m/s. (Assume the positive direction is forward.)
(a) Calculate the velocity of the target ball after the collision.
(b) Calculate the mass of the target ball.

Answer:

(a) Velocity of target is 2.7 m/s.

(b) Mass of target is 0.807 kg.

Explanation:

Mass of ball m_{1}=0.22\;kg

initial speed of the ball v_{1i}=6.3\;m/s

Final speed of the ball v_{2f}=-3.6\;m/s

Part (a) The second ball is initially at rest. So, by the conservation of momentum,

p_{i}=p_{f}\\m_{1}v_{1i}+m_{2}v_{2i}=m_{1}v_{1f}+m_{2}v_{2f}\\0.22\times6.3+m_{2}\times 0=0.22\times(-3.6)+m_2v_{2f}\\m_2v_{2f}=2.178\:\:\:\:\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;    ...(1)

Now, the velocity of approach is equal to the velocity of separation,

v_{1i}-v_{2i}=v_{2f}-v_{1f}\\6.3-0=v_{2f}-(-3.6)\\v_{2f}=2.7\;m/s

Part (b): From equation (1),

m_2v_{2f}=2.178\\m_2=\frac{2.178}{2.7}\\m_2=0.806\;kg

katrin2010 [14]

Time period of any moon of Jupiter is given by

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}

from above formula we can say that mass of Jupiter is given by

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

now for part a)

r = 4.22 * 10^8 m

T = 1.77 day = 152928 seconds

now by above formula

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (4.22 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(152928)^2}

M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg

Part B)

r = 6.71 * 10^8 m

T = 3.55 day = 306720 seconds

now by above formula

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (6.71 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(306720)^2}

M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg

Part c)

r = 10.7 * 10^8 m

T = 7.16 day = 618624 seconds

now by above formula

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (10.7 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(618624)^2}

M = 1.89* 10^{27} kg

PART D)

r = 18.8 * 10^8 m

T = 16.7 day = 1442880 seconds

now by above formula

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (18.8 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(1442880)^2}

M = 1.889* 10^{27} kg

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time.

Examples of scalar quantity are:

Distance.

Speed.

Mass.

Temperature.

Energy.

Work.

Volume.

Area.

explain why if charge cannot be created or destroyed, electrically neutral objects can become electrically charged
natali 33 [55]
Charge is actually either excessive number or electrons or shortage of them.
as you can't destroy the electron or create it - you can't destroy or create charge

Answer:

32000joule.

Explanation:

given

mass. (m)=160kg

speed (v)=20m/s

now

kinetic energy =1/2 (mv²)=1/2 ×{160×20²}=32000joule.
