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

Which statement best describes the effect of the magnet on the block of
barxatty [35]

The magnet (south pole of the magnet) has magnetized the right side of the block.

<h3>Direction of electric field in the magnetic material</h3>

The direction of electric field of the atom of the magnetic material is unpolarized.

From the diagram in the image, the right hand side of the magnetic material is being attracted to south pole of the magnet.

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnet has magnetized the right side of the block.

The energy transformations that occur as you coast down long hill on a bicycle, including the brakes to make the bike stop at the bottom, is that at the top of the hill you have high GPE AND LOW KE, on your way down you have HIGH KE AND LOW GPE, and at the bottom you have thermal energy due to the stop of the brakes.

the law of conversation of energy and describe the energy transformations that occur as you coast down a long hill on a bicycle and then apply the brakes to make the bike stop at the bottom.

Select the correct location on the image.
slega [8]

Answer:

orange line

Explanation:

it is the only straight line that makes sense. curved lines imply velocity changed. and the completly flat green line implies the vehicle didn't move since its position value stayed the same. must be the downward pointing orange line
