If two objects collide and one is initially at rest, is itpossible for both to be at rest after the collision?

Physics

Kruka [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Not possible

Explanation:

Suppose there's no external force, then the momentum must be conserved before and after the collision.

Since momentum is defined as the product of object mass and speed. This means that if after the collision, for both object to be at rest then the total momentum is 0.

But before the collision, only 1 is at rest, the other is not -> the total momentum is non 0 before the collision.

Therefor this is not possible with the law of momentum conservation.

A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at lif
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.

Explanation:

v(t)=-gt-v_e\times \ln \frac{m-rt}{m}

v = velocity of rocket at time t

g = Acceleration due to gravity =9.8 m/s^2

v_e = Constant velocity relative to the rocket = 2,900m/s.

m = Initial mass of the rocket at liftoff = 29000 kg

r = Rate at which fuel is consumed = 170 kg/s

Velocity of the rocket after 1 minute of the liftoff =v

t = 1 minute = 60 seconds'

Substituting all the given values in in the given equation:

v(60)=-9.8 m/s^2\times 60 s-2,900m/s\times \ln (\frac{29,000 kg-170 kg/s\times 60 s}{2,9000 kg})

v(60) = 668.97 m/s

Height of the rocket = h

Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}

668.97 m/s=\frac{h}{60 s}

h=668.97 m/s\times 60 s=40,138.2 m = 40.1382 km

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.
