Two blocks collide on a frictionless surface. After the collision, the blocks sticktogether. Block A has a mass M and is initial

ly moving to the right at speed v. Block B has amass 2M and is initially at rest. System C is composed of both blocks. (a) Draw a free-bodydiagram for each block at an instant during the collision. (b) Rank the magnitudes of thehorizontal forces in your diagram. Explain your reasoning. (c) Calculate the change inmomentum of block A, block B, and system C.Anybody want to take a crack at this?

seropon [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done by the spring is negative .

Work done by force F creating displacement  d is given by the following expression .

Work = F x d

Both force and displacement are vector quantity .

When direction of force and direction of displacement is same , work is positive . When direction of force and direction of displacement is opposite , work is negative .

When spring is compressed , it exerts a restoring or opposing force in a direction opposite to the direction of displacement of box . Hence here force is opposite to displacement . Restoring force acts opposite to displacement . Hence work done by spring on box is negative .

Suppose that, while lying on a beach near the equator of a far-off planet watching the sun set over a calm ocean, you start a st
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

R=3818Km

Explanation:

Take a look at the picture. Point A is when you start the stopwatch. Then you stand, the planet rotates an angle α and you are standing at point B.

Since you travel 2π radians in 24H, the angle can be calculated as:

\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *t}{24H}  t being expressed in hours.

\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *11.9s*1H/3600s}{24H}=0.000865rad

From the triangle formed by A,B and the center of the planet, we know that:

cos(\alpha )=\frac{r}{r+H}  Solving for r, we get:

r=\frac{H*cos(\alpha) }{1-cos(\alpha) } =3818Km

aksik [14]

Answer:

An object appears white when it reflects all wavelengths and black when it absorbs them all. Red, green and blue are the additive primary colors of the color spectrum. Combining balanced amounts of red, green and blue lights also produces pure white.
