P = m*v

conservation of momentum suggests

initial momentum equals final momentum

mv-initial = mv-final

(0.0010 kg)(50 m/s) = (0.0010 kg + 0.35 kg)v

thus:

v = (0.0010)(50)/(0.351) = 0.142 m/s

Answer: The pellet and wood slide at a speed of 0.142 m/s.

Explanation:

To calculate the velocity of the pellet and wood after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m_1 = mass of pellet = 0.001kg

u_1 = Initial velocity of pellet = 50m/s

v_1 = Final velocity of pellet = v m/s

m_2 = mass of wood = 0.36kg

u_2 = Initial velocity of wood = 0m/s

v_2 = Final velocity of wood = v m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

(0.001\times 50)+(0.35\times 0)=(0.001+0.35)v\\\\v=0.142m/s

Hence, the pellet and wood slide at a speed of 0.142 m/s.

1) how does reflection differ from diffraction?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: (1) The correct answer is A.

(2) The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

(1)

Reflection is the sending back of light from the surface without absorbing it. In the reflection phenomenon, the wave does not continue moving forward.

Diffraction is the bending of the light around the obstacle. In the diffraction phenomenon, the wave travels forward after striking around the obstacle.

Therefore, the correct answer is A.

(2)

Amplitude is the maximum displacement in the medium from the rest position.

The amount of energy is related to the amplitude. Amplitude is related to the amount of energy carried by the wave. Low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude. High energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

A charge of q= +15 uC moves in a Northeast direction with a speed 5 m/s, 25 degrees East of a magnetic field, pointing North, wi
grin007 [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnitude of charge, q=15\ \mu C=15\times 10^{-6}\ C

It moves in northeast direction with a speed of 5 m/s, 25 degrees East of a magnetic field.

Magnetic field, B=0.08\ j

Velocity, v=(5\ cos25)i+(5\ sin25)j

v=[(4.53)i+(2.11)j]\ m/s

We need to find the magnitude of force on the charge. Magnetic force is given by :

F=q(v\times B)

F=15\times 10^{-6}[(4.53i+2.11j)\times 0.08\ j]

<em>Since</em>, i\times j=k\ and\ j\times j=0

F=15\times 10^{-6}[(4.53i)\times (0.08)\ j]

F=0.00000543\ kN

F=5.43\times 10^{-6}\ kN

So, the force acting on the charge is 5.43\times 10^{-6}\ kN and is moving in positive z axis. Hence, this is the required solution.
