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.

Answer:

The range of powers is    - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The far point of the left eye is n_f = 20 cm

       The near point of the left eye is  n =  15cm

       The near point with the glasses on is n_g =25 \ cm

     

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for near point the

         Object distance would be u = -25 \ cm

          Image distance would be  v =  -15 \ cm

To obtain the focal length we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{v}  -  \frac{1}{u}

substituting values

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-15}  -  \frac{1}{-25}

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} cm

           converting to  meters

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} * \frac{1}{100}

               f =  - \frac{75}{200} \ m

   Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{200}{75}  m

                 P = - 2.667 \ D

   

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for far  point the

         Object distance would be u_f = - \infty \ cm

          Image distance would be  v_f =  -20  \ cm

To obtain the focal length of the lens we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

                    \frac{1}{f_f} =  \frac{1}{v_f}  -  \frac{1}{u_f}

substituting values

                  \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  \frac{1}{- \infty}

                 \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  0      

                  f_f =  \frac{20}{1}  \ cm

converting to  meters

                f_f =  - \frac{20}{1}  * \frac{1}{100}

               

Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f_f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{100}{20}  m

                 P = - 5 \ D

This implies that the range of powers of the lens in his glass is

                  - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D

Kaya collects the data shown in the table.
Colt1911 [192]

<u>Answer;</u>

= 20 ohms

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • According to the Ohm's law, the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference if other environment conditions are kept constant.

Therefore; I α V

Hence; V = IR, where R is the constant, called the resistance

Therefore; R = V/I

                  R = 6.0 /0.3

                     <u> = 20 Ohms</u>
