Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of speed is shown below:-

We will compute the equation by using the law of conservation of momentum; also, the total momentum prior and following the collision must be conserved. Therefore we can write the equation is the following manner:-

m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1 +m_2)v

where the symbols represent

150 kg is the mass of spaceship 1  = m1

150 kg is the mass of spaceship 2  = m2

0 m/s is the initial velocity of spaceship 1  = u1

6 m/s is the initial velocity of spaceship 2 = u2

and v is the velocity of the 2 ships so that they can collide and combined together

For v we will get the following equation to reach the speed

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}

=\frac{0+(150)(6)}{150+150}

=3 m/s

How are the different firework shapes produced
AleksAgata [21]

To create the shapes, stars are arranged on a piece of cardboard in the desired configuration. If the stars are placed in a smiley face pattern on the cardboard, for example, they will explode into a smiley face in the sky. In fact, you may see several smiley faces in the sky at one time.

In an LC circuit containing a 40-mH ideal inductor and a 1.2-mF capacitor, the maximum charge on the capacitor is 45mC during os
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

E) 6.5 A

Explanation:

Given that

L = 40 m H

C= 1.2 m F

Maximum charge on capacitor ,Q= 45 m C

The maximum current I given as

I = Q.ω

ω =angular frequency

\omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{CL}}

By putting the values

\omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{CL}}

\omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{40\times 10^{-3}\times 1.2 \times 10^{-3}}}

ω  = 144.33 rad⁻¹

Maximum current

I = 45 x 10⁻³ x 144.33  A

I= 6.49 A

I = 6.5 A

E) 6.5 A

Darya [45]

Answer:

x=0.53x10^{-3} m

Explanation:

Using Gauss law the field is uniform so

E=ζ/ε

Charge densities ⇒ζ=1.x10x^{-6} \frac{C}{m^{2}}

ε=8.85x10^{-12} \frac{C^{2}}{n*m^{2}}

E=\frac{1x10^{-6}\frac{C}{m^{2}}}{8.85x^{-12}\frac{C^{2} }{N*m^{2}}} \\E=0.11299 x10^{-6} \frac{N}{C}

Force of charge is

F_{q}=q*E\\F_{q}=1.6x10^{-19}C*0.11299x10^{6}\frac{N}{C} \\F_{q}=1.807x10^{-14} N

F_{q}=m*a\\a=\frac{F_{q}}{m}=\frac{1.807x10^{-13}N}{1.67x10^{-27}}\\ a=1.082x0^{14} \frac{m}{s^{2}} \\t=\frac{x}{v}\\ x=2.1cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.021m \\v=6.7x10^{6}\frac{m}{s} \\ t=\frac{0.021m}{6.7x10^{6}\frac{m}{s}} \\t=3.13x10^{-9}s

So finally knowing the acceleration and the time the distance can be find using equation of uniform motion

x_{f}=x_{o}+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}\\ x_{o}=0\\x_{f}=\frac{1}{2} a*t^{2}=\frac{1}{2}*1.082x10^{14}\frac{m}{s^{2} } *(3.134x^{-9}s)^{2}  \\x_{f}=0.53x^{-3}m

A spring has a force constant k, and an object of mass m is suspended from it. The spring is cut in half and the same object is
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}

Explanation:

From frequency of oscillation

f = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

Initially with the suspended string, the above equation is correct for the relation, hence

f1 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

where k is force constant and m is the mass

When the spring is cut into half, by physics, the force constant will be doubled as they are inversely proportional

f2 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{2k/m}

Employing f2/ f1, we have

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}
