A billiard ball moving at 0.5 m/s strikes another identical billiard ball, which is at rest, in an elastic head-on collision on

a level table. Which of the following statements best describes the billiard balls after the collision?
Physics

NikAS [45]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: assuming that the billiard balls are of identical weight the impacted billiard ball will move forward at around 0.5m/s (not considering energy conservation). The ball impacting the 2nd one would stop because most of its Kinetic energy would have been transferred into the not moving ball.

Explanation: hope this helps!

A vector in the xy plane has a magnitude of 25 m and x component of 12 m. What is its angle with the positive x axis?
lara [203]

Answer:

The angle with the positive x axis 61.31°

Explanation:

It is given that, a vector in the x-y plane has a magnitude of 25 m and x component of 12 m.

x component of the vector, base = 12 m

Magnitude of hypotenuse, H = 25 m

We need to find the angle with the positive x axis. Let it is given by θ such that :

cos\theta=\dfrac{base}{hypotenuse}

cos\theta=\dfrac{12}{25}

θ = 61.31°

So, the angle with the positive x axis 61.31°. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 0.5kg ball sits on top of a 20m high ramp. What is the potential energy of the ball?
Evgesh-ka [11]
Mass = 0.5 kg
H = 20m
G = 9.8 m/s^2

U (Potential energy) = M×g×h
= 0.5 × 9.8 × 20 = 98 J

How could you show that sound waves are caused by vibrations?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Sound waves are formed when a vibrating object causes the surrounding medium to vibrate. A medium is a material (solid, liquid or gas) which a wave travels through. As sound waves move through a medium the particles vibrate forwards and backwards.
