Answer:
The general equation for conservation of momentum during a collision between n number of objects is given as: [m i ×v i a ] = [m i ×v i b ] Where m i is the mass of object i , v i a is the velocity of object i before the collision, and v i b is the velocity of object i after the collision.
Explanation:
Answer:
An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.
As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.
But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.
Answer:
A. If two objects collide, each object exerts a force in the same direction as the other.
Explanation:
Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2
Explanation:
When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:
W = g*m
where:
m = mass of the man
g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2
We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:
824N = m*9.8m/s^2
824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg
Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.
Then the new weight is calculated as:
W = m*(g + a)
and we know that in this case:
W = 932N
g = 9.8m/s^2
m = 84.1 kg
Then we can find the value of a if we solve:
932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)
932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a
11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2
The correct option is C
