Two billiard balls move toward each other on a table. The mass of the number three ball, m1, is 5 g with a velocity of 3 m/s. Th

e mass of the eight ball, m2, is 6 g with a velocity of 1 m/s. After the balls collide, they bounce off each other. The number three ball moves off with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is the final velocity and direction of the eight ball? +8.6 m/s +5.7 m/s –5.7 m/s –8.6 m/s.?

Answer:

+5.7 m/s

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum is that the momentum before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision. In an equation form it would look like this:

M₁V₁+M₂V₂ = M₁V₁'+M₂V₂'

Where:

M₁ = mass of object 1 (kg)

V₁ = velocity of object 1 before the collision (m/s)

V₁' = Final velocity of object 1 after the collision (m/s)

M₂ = mass of object 2 (kg)

V₂ = velocity of object 2 before the collision (m/s)

V₂' = Final velocity of object 2 after the collision (m/s)

According to your problem you have the following given:

M₁ = 5 g = 0.005kg

V₁ = 3 m/s

V₁' = -5m/s (It bounced off so it is going the other direction)

M₂ = 6g = 0.006kg

V₂ = -1 m/s (It is coming from the opposite direction of the 3-ball)

V₂' = ?

So we plug in what we know and solve for what we don't know.

M_1V_1+M_2V_2 = M_1V_1' + M_2V_2'\\\\(0.005kg)(3m/s)+(0.006kg)(-1m/s) = (0.005kg)(5m/s)+(0.006kg)(V_2')\\\\(0.015kg\cdot m/s)+(-0.006kg\cdot m/s)=(-0.025kg\cdot m/s)+(0.006kg)(V_2')\\\\0.009kg\cdot m/s+0.025kg\cdot m/s = (0.006kg)(V_2')\\\\\dfrac{0.034kg\cdot m/s}{0.006kg} = V_2'\\\\5.7m/s = V_2'

A water pump is a positive displacement-type pump true or false
Kay [80]

Answer: True

A water pump belong to a positive displacement pump that provides constant flow of water at fixed speed, regardless of changes in the counter pressure. The two main types of positive displacement pump are rotary pumps and reciprocating pumps.

Moreover, water pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that have an expanding cavity on the suction side and a decreasing cavity on the discharge side. In water pumps, the liquid flows into the pumps as the cavity on the suction side expands and then the liquid flows out of the discharge as the cavity collapses providing water in a pail.

What is the speed of terminal velocity?
ivann1987 [24]
The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid.  Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

Glass has a hardness that is in the middle of the hardness scale. What is the hardness of Glass?
sweet [91]

Answer: 5.5

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that hardness is a property that materials have related to the opposition or resistance they offer to alterations such as penetration, abrasion, scratching, cutting, and permanent deformations, among others.

In this context, several hardness scales have been developed to catalog the materials (specifically minerals), being the Mohs scale  the best known. This scale, proposed by the German geologist Friedrich Mohs in 1825, consists of a ratio of ten minerals numbered in increasing order by hardness, from least to greatest.

This is how the scale starts at 1 with the talc (considered the softest material) and ends at 10 with the diamond as the hardest.

Now, if we are told that the glass is in the middle of the hardness scale that goes from 1 to 10, logically its value will be 5 (volcanic glass). However, according to the scale, the glass is at 5.5.

Which of the following is a nonferromagnetic material? (a) aluminum (b) iron (c) cobalt (d) gadolinium
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Iron and gadlinium are both very easily made into magnetic substances.  Cobalt is also capable of being magnetized. Aluminum, put in an alloy, can make a magnetic substance, but

Aluminum by itself is not able to be magnetized.
