To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. This can be defined as the product between the mass and the velocity of each object, and by conservation it will be understood that the amount of the initial momentum is equal to the amount of the final momentum. By the law of conservation of momentum,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Here,

m_1 = Mass of Basketball

m_2 = Mass of Tennis ball

u_1 = Initial velocity of Basketball

u_2 = Initial Velocity of Tennis ball

v_1 = Final velocity of Basketball

v_2 = Final velocity of the tennis ball

Replacing,

(0.8)(0.5)+(0.1)(-5.0)=(0.8)(0.3)+(0.1)v_2

Solving for the final velocity of the tennis ball

v_2 = 11m/s^2

Therefore the velocity of the tennis ball after collision is 11 m/s

<h2>Answer:</h2>

15m/s

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that "in the absence of external forces, the linear momentum of colliding bodies before and after collision does not change".

This means that total linear momentum of colliding bodies before collision is the same after collision.

The momentum (P) of a body is the motion that the body has and it is given by the product of the mass (m) of the body and its velocity (v). i.e

P = m x v

Using this principle, lets solve the problem;

Momentum of basket ball before collision + Momentum of tennis ball before collision

    =

Momentum of basket ball after collision + Momentum of tennis ball after collision.

Let;

upward motion be positive and downward be negative.

Also let,

m_{B} = mass of basketball = 0.80kg

m_{T} = mass of tennis ball = 8 x 10^{-2}kg = 0.08kg

u_{B} = initial velocity of the basket ball before collision = +5.0m/s (since motion is upwards).

u_{T} = initial velocity of the tennis ball before collision = -5.0m/s (since motion is downwards).

v_{B} = final velocity of the basketball after collision = +3.0m/s (since motion is upwards).

v_{T} = final velocity of the tennis ball after collision.

Therefore,

Momentum of basket ball before collision = m_{B} x u_{B}

Momentum of tennis ball before collision = m_{T} x u_{T}

Momentum of basket ball after collision = m_{B} x v_{B}

Momentum of tennis ball after collision = m_{T} x v_{T}

=> (m_{B} x u_{B}) + (m_{T} x u_{T}) = (m_{B} x v_{B}) + (m_{T} x v_{T})

Substituting the values into the above equation gives;

=> (0.8 x 5.0) + (0.08 x -5.0) = (0.8 x 3.0) + (0.08 x v_{T})

=> (0.8 x 5.0) - (0.08 x 5.0) = (0.8 x 3.0) + (0.08 x v_{T})

=> (4) - (0.4) = (2.4) + (0.08v_{T})

=> 3.6 = 2.4 + 0.08v_{T}

=> 0.08v_{T} = 3.6 - 2.4

=> 0.08v_{T} = 1.2

=> v_{T} = \frac{1.2}{0.08}

=> v_{T} = 15m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the tennis ball after the collision is 15m/s

In which of the fire plume structure zones do the gases accelerate upward?
I am Lyosha [343]
The zone that gases always accelerate upward is the Luminous flame zone. The fire plume is the column of hot gases, flames and smoke rising above a fire. Gases accelerate upward toward the always luminous flame zone. The luminous flame height is the distance between the base of a flame and the point at which the plume is luminous half the time and transparent half the time.

sasho [114]

Answer:

 E = (2.29 i ^ - 0.917 j ^) 10⁶ N / C

 E_{total} = 2,467 10⁶ N / A       θ = -21.8      

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use that the electric field is a vector quantity, so the total field is

        E_total = E₁₃ + E₂₃

bold font vectors .  We can work with the components of the electric field in each axis

X- axis

       E_ total x = E₁₃ₓ + E_{23x}

y-axis  

      E_{total y} = E_{13y} + E_{23y}

the expression for the electric field is

       E = k q / r²

where r is the distance between the charge and the positive test charge

       

in this exercise

Let's find the field created by charge 1

q₁ = 10 μC = 10 10⁻⁶ C

x₁ = 5 cm = 0.05 m

x₃ = 21 cm = 0.21 m

         E_{13x} = 9 10⁹ 10 10⁻⁶ / (0.21 -0.05)²

         E_{13x} = 3.516 10⁶ N / C

y₁ = 6 cm = 0.06 cm

y₃ = -12 cm = -0.12 m

        E_{13y} = 9 10⁹ 10 10⁻⁶ / (-0.12 - 0.06)²

        E_{13y} = 2,777 10⁶ N / C

let's find the field produced by charge 2

q₂ = -27 μC = - 27 10⁻⁶ C

x₂ = -6 cm = -0.06 m

x₃ = 0.21 m

        E_{23x} = 9 10⁹ 27 10⁻⁶ / (0.21 + 0.06)²

        E_{23x} = 1.23 10⁶ N / A

y₂ = 10 cm = 0.10 m

y₃ = -0.12 m

        E_{23y} = 9 10⁹ 27 10⁻⁶ / (-0.12 - 0.10)²

        E_{23y} = 1.86 10⁶ N / C

Taking the components we can calculate the total electric field, we must use that charge of the same sign repel and attract the opposite sign, remember that the test charge is always considered positive.

       E_{total x} = E_{13x} - E_{23x}

       E_{total x} = (3.516 - 1.23) 10⁶

       E_{total x} = 2.29 10⁶ N / A

       

       E_{total y} = -E_{13y} + E_{23y}

       E_{total y} = (-2.777 +1.86) 10⁶ N / A

       E_{total y} = -0.917 10⁶ N / A

we can give the result in two ways

         E = (2.29 i ^ - 0.917 j ^) 10⁶ N / C

or in the form of modulus and angle, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the modulus

                E_{total} = √ (E_{total x}^2 + E_{total y}^ 2)

                 E_{total} = √ (2.29² + 0.917²) 10⁶

                E_{total} = 2,467 10⁶ N / A

let's use trigonometry for the angle

                tan θ = E_total and / E_totalx

                θ = tan⁻¹ E_{total y} / E_{total x}

                θ = tan⁻¹ (-0.917 / 2.29)

                θ = -21.8

The negative sign indicates that the angle is measured with respect to the x-axis in a clockwise direction.
