Conservation of momentum

Physics
1 answer:

That's a good one, and there's more to this than meets the eye.

Mass and velocity don't have to be conserved, but energy and
momentum both do !

Write the equation in slope-intercept form <br> x-2y=4
maxonik [38]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-2

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form means we want the y to be by itself in the equation. Every thing we do will be about getting the y alone on the left side of the equation

To start we should move x to the left hand side. We can do this by subtracting x from both sides. That way, there is an x on the right, but not the left.

x-x-2y=4-x

this gives us

-2y=4-x

Great! So now what? Well, the y isn't by itself yet because it still is being multiplied by negative two (-2). In order to move it from the left side to the right side, we have to do the opposite of multiply; divide. So, we will divide both sides by -2

\frac{-2y}{-2} =\frac{4}{-2} -\frac{x}{-2}

-2 divided by -2 is 1, 4 divided by -2 is -2, and -x divided by -2 is \frac{1}{2}x

This gives us the answer:  y=\frac{1}{2}x-2

Tips:

A negative divided by a negative is a positive ex: -4 divided by -2 is positive 2

If you are subtracting by a negative number, you are actually adding by a positive ex: 2-(-2) is actually 2+2

Don't be afraid to have fractions in your equations

Whatever you do to the one side of the equation, you must do it to the other side as well. Multiply the left side by 2? You HAVE TO multiply the right side by two as well. Add 3 to the right side? You HAVE TO add 3 to the left.

For problems like this (and when you have access to the internet), where you need to rewrite an equation, double check your work on desmos, which is an online graphing calculator. Input both the original equation and the equation you rewrote, and if they don't create the same line, you did something wrong.

Learning Goal: How do 2 ordinary waves build up a "standing" wave? A very generic formula for a traveling wave is: y1(x,t)=Asin(
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

=Asin(kx−ωt). This general mathematical form can represent the displacement of a string, or the strength of an electric field, or the height of the surface of water, or a large number of other physical waves!

Part C Find ye(x) and yt(t). Remember that yt(t) must be a trig function of unit amplitude. Express your answers in terms of A, k, x, ω, and t. Separate the two functions with a comma. Use parentheses around the argument of any trig functions.

Part E At the position x=0, what is the displacement of the string (assuming that the standing wave ys(x,t) is present)? Part G From

Part F we know that the string is perfectly straight at time t=π2ω. Which of the following statements does the string's being straight imply about the energy stored in the strJHJMNMMUJJHTGGHing?

a.There is no energy stored in the string: The string will remain straight for all subsequent times.

b.Energy will flow into the string, causing the standing wave to form at a later time.

c.Although the string is straight at time t=π2ω, parts of the string have nonzero velocity. Therefore, there is energy stored in the string.

d.The total mechanical energy in the string oscillates but is constant if averaged over a complete cycle.

n alpha particle (q = +2e, m = 4.00 u) travels in a circular path of radius 5.94 cm in a uniform magnetic field with B = 1.10 T.
9966 [12]

Answer:

a). V = 3.13*10⁶ m/s

b). T = 1.19*10^-7s

c). K.E = 2.04*10⁵

d). V = 1.02*10⁵V

Explanation:

q = +2e

M = 4.0u

r = 5.94cm = 0.0594m

B = 1.10T

1u = 1.67 * 10^-27kg

M = 4.0 * 1.67*10^-27 = 6.68*10^-27kg

a). Centripetal force = magnetic force

Mv / r = qB

V = qBr / m

V = [(2 * 1.60*10^-19) * 1.10 * 0.0594] / 6.68*10^-27

V = 2.09088 * 10^-20 / 6.68 * 10^-27

V = 3.13*10⁶ m/s

b). Period of revolution.

T = 2Πr / v

T = (2*π*0.0594) / 3.13*10⁶

T = 1.19*10⁻⁷s

c). kinetic energy = ½mv²

K.E = ½ * 6.68*10^-27 * (3.13*10⁶)²

K.E = 3.27*10^-14J

1ev = 1.60*10^-19J

xeV = 3.27*10^-14J

X = 2.04*10⁵eV

K.E = 2.04*10⁵eV

d). K.E = qV

V = K / q

V = 2.04*10⁵ / (2eV).....2e-

V = 1.02*10⁵V
