Which are examples of perfectly in elastic collisions

Physics

sweet [91]3 years ago

Typical examples of inelastic collision are between cars, airlines, trains, etc.
For instance, when two trains collide, the kinetic energy of each train is transformed into heat, which explains why, most of the times, there is a fire after a collision. However, the momentum of the two trains that are involved in the collision remains unaffected. So, the trains collide with all their speed, maintaining their momentum, yet their kinetic energy is transformed into heat energy.
Another way to explain a train or a car collision is this: when the two trains or cars collide, they stick together while slowing down. They slow down because their kinetic energy is gradually lost. Still, they collide because they conserve their momentum.

What is electric charge ?​
Alenkasestr [34]
DescriptionElectric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric charge: positive and negative. Like charges repel and unlike attract. An object with an absence of net charge is referred to as neutral.

A flare is dropped from an airplane flying horizontally at uniform velocity (constant speed in a straight line). Neglecting air
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Option B (remain vertically under the plane) is the correct option.

Explanation:

  • A flare would follow a particle trajectory with horizontal direction somewhat like airplane velocity as well as initial maximum motion as null but instead, gravity will induce acceleration. It would be lowered vertically underneath the plane before flare had already sunk to something like the surface.
  • There is no different movement in the airplane nor even the flash. And none of them can change its horizontal level.  

Some other alternatives are given really aren't linked to the specified scenario. So choice B is the perfect solution to that.

A 5 kg block is pulled across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with a frictional force of 8 N opposing the motion. Calculat
valkas [14]

Answer:

a = 6.4 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. In this way, we have the following equation.

∑F = m*a

where:

∑F = sum of forces (horizontal force = 40 [N] and friction force = 8 [N])

m = mass of the block = 5 [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing:

40-8=5*a\\32 = 5*a\\a=6.4[m/s^{2} ]

Note: the sign of the friction force is negative since this force is acting against the movement of the block.

A long wire carries a current 5 A from west to east. A magnetic compass pointing North is placed underneath the wire at a distan
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

no deflection

Explanation:

current is flowing from west to east. As the magnetic field of a long wire carrying current is circular, its direction will be north below the wire and south above the wire (according to the right hand rule). So, when the compass is placed underneath the wire, it will still point towards the north direction.
