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.

Ksju [112]
 <span>g = GMe/Re^2, where Re = Radius of earth (6360km), G = 6.67x10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2, and Me = Mass of earth. On the earth's surface, g = 9.81 m/s^2, so the radius of your orbit is:


R = Re * sqrt (9.81 m/s^2 / 9.00 m/s^2) = 6640km 

here, the speed of the satellite is:

v = sqrt(R*9.00m/s^2) = 7730 m/s 

  the time it would take the satellite to complete one full rotation is:

T = 2*pi*R/v = 5397 s * 1h/3600s = 1.50 h 

Hope it help i know it's long and may be confusing but if you have any more questions regarding this topic just hmu!  :)</span>

On Earth, a brick has a mass of 10 kg and a weight of 5 lbs. What predictions could we make about the mass and weight of the bri
belka [17]

Answer:

Mass remains constant but weight reduces

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.

Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.

Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.
