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?

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!

Model rocket engines are sized by thrust, thrust duration, and total impulse, among other characteristics. A size C5 model rocke

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

v_{f} = 115.95 m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise of a variable mass system, let's form a system formed by the masses of the rocket, the mass of the engines and the masses of the injected gases, in this case the system has a constant mass and can be solved using the conservation the amount of movement. Which can be described by the expressions

Thrust = $v_{e} \frac{dM}{dt}$

$v_{f}$ -v₀ = v_{e} $ln ( \frac{M_{o} }{M_{f}} )$

where v_{e} is the velocity of the gases relative to the rocket

let's apply these expressions to our case

the initial mass is the mass of the engines plus the mass of the fuel plus the kill of the rocket, let's work the system in SI units

M₀ = 25.5 +12.7 + 54.5 = 92.7 g = 0.0927 kg

The final mass is the mass of the engines + the mass of the rocket

M_{f} = 25.5 +54.5 = 80 g = 0.080 kg

thrust and duration of ignition are given

thrust = 5.26 N

t = 1.90 s

Let's start by calculating the velocity of the gases relative to the rocket, where we assume that the rate of consumption is linear

thrust = v_{e} $\frac{M_{f} - M_{o} }{t_{f} - t_{o} }$

v_{e} = thrust $\frac{\Delta t}{\Delta M}$

v_{e} = 5.26 $\frac{1.90}{0.080 -0.0927}$

v_{e} = - 786.93 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the direction of the gases is opposite to the direction of the rocket

now we look for the final speed of the rocket, which as part of rest its initial speed is zero

v_{f}-0 = v_{e} $ln ( \frac{M_{o} }{M_{f} } )$

we calculate

v_{f} = 786.93 ln (0.0927 / 0.080)

v_{f} = 115.95 m / s

An eccentric inventor attempts to levitate by first placing a large negative charge on himself and then putting a large positive

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

Explanation:

In electrostatics, charges of different signs attract and charges of the same sign repel.

In this case, when a negative charge is placed on it, both the inventor and the shirt are charged, therefore there is a repulsive force, also there is an attraction between the positive charge of the roof attracts the negative charge, such as the shirt. of weak the two forces not greater than the resistance of the walk.

As the shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

A commuter train passes a passenger platform at a constant speed of 39.6 m/s. The train horn is sounded at its characteristic fr

Licemer1 [7]

Complete Question

A commuter train passes a passenger platform at a constant speed of 39.6 m/s. The train horn is sounded at its characteristic frequency of 350 Hz.

(a)

What overall change in frequency is detected by a person on the platform as the train moves from approaching to receding

(b) What wavelength is detected by a person on the platform as the train approaches?

Answer:

a

$\Delta f = 81.93 \ Hz$

b

$\lambda_1 = 0.867 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of the train is $v_t = 39.6 m/s$

The frequency of the train horn is $f_t = 350 \ Hz$

Generally the speed of sound has a constant values of $v_s = 343 m/s$

Now according to dopplers equation when the train(source) approaches a person on the platform(observe) then the frequency on the sound observed by the observer can be mathematically represented as

$f_1 = f * \frac{v_s}{v_s - v_t}$

substituting values

$f_1 = 350 * \frac{343 }{343-39.6}$

$f_1 = 395.7 \ Hz$

Now according to dopplers equation when the train(source) moves away from the person on the platform(observe) then the frequency on the sound observed by the observer can be mathematically represented as

$f_2 = f * \frac{v_s}{v_s +v_t}$

substituting values

$f_2 = 350 * \frac{343}{343 + 39.6}$

$f_2 = 313.77 \ Hz$

The overall change in frequency is detected by a person on the platform as the train moves from approaching to receding is mathematically evaluated as

$\Delta f = f_1 - f_2$

$\Delta f = 395.7 - 313.77$

$\Delta f = 81.93 \ Hz$

Generally the wavelength detected by the person as the train approaches is mathematically represented as

$\lambda_1 = \frac{v}{f_1 }$

$\lambda_1 = \frac{343}{395.7 }$

$\lambda_1 = 0.867 \ m$

A 2,200-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 3.40 m before coming into contact

love history [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of Force is 8.58×10⁵N and direction is upwards

Explanation:

The work beam does on the pile driver is given by

W=(FCos180°)Δx= -F(0.088m)

From work energy theorem

$W_{nc}=(KE_{f}-KE_{i})+(PE_{f}-PE_{i})\\W_{nc}=1/2m(vf^{2}-vi^{2})+mg(yf-yi)$

Choosing y=0 at the the level where the driver first contacts the beam and vi=0 at yi=+3.40m and comes to rest again vf=0 at yf= -0.088m

So

$-F(0.088m)=1/2m(0-0)+2,200kg(9.81m/s^{2} )(-0.088m-3.40m)\\-F(0.088)=-75508.224\\F=75508.224/0.088\\F=8.58*10^{5} N$

The magnitude of Force is 8.58×10⁵N and direction is upwards
