During a circus act, a performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of m1 = 10.

5 kg and the horizontal component of its velocity is v = 8.85 m/s when the performer, of mass m2 = 61.5 kg, catches it. If the performer is on nearly frictionless roller skates, what is his recoil velocity?

Answer:

1.512 m/s

Explanation:

M₁ = 10.5

M₂ = 61.5kg

v₁ = 8.85m/s

v₂ = ?

This question involves conservation of momentum and law of conservation of momentum states that, the total momentum of a system does not change before and after impact and it's always constant.

Momentum = mass * velocity = M*V

total momentum of the system before caught the ball = total momentum after he caught the ball.

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

10.5 * 8.85 = 61.5 * V₂

V₂ = 92.925 / 61.5

V₂ = 1.5109m/s ≈ 1.512m/s

Answer:

The recoil velocity is 1.29 m/s

Explanation:

In a collision, the momentum is conserved:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = V(m₁ + m₂)

Where

m₁ = mass of ball = 10.5 kg

m₂ = mass of performer = 61.5 kg

v₁ = velocity of the ball = 8.85 m/s

v₂ = velocity of performer = 0

V = velocity after the collision = ?

Clearing V:

V=\frac{m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}m_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2} } =\frac{(10.5*8.85)+(61.5*0)}{10.5+61.5} =1.29m/s

An upright spring with a 96g mass on it is compressed 2 cm. When
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

I only know answer A and it's 2825.28 N/m, with rounding it's 2825.5

Explanation:

Use the m*g*h=1/2*k*x^2 equation

96*9.81*60=1/2*k*2^2

5650.56=2k

5650.56/2=2825.28N/m

To perform a drug lookup to ensure that the new compound has been added to the computer system properly , select in the toolbar
lutik1710 [3]

To perform a drug lookup to ensure that the new compound has been added to the computer system properly we have to select the new from the toolbar at the top of the screen

<h3>What is a computer system?</h3>

A computer system is a collection of computers, related hardware, and related software. The central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output, and storage devices are the four main components of a computer system. To produce the desired result, all of these parts operate in concert as a single unit.

Selecting the new from the toolbar at the top of the screen will allow us to run a drug lookup to make sure the new compound has been properly added to the computer system.

Therefore the correct answer is the option C

At height h above the surface of Earth, the gravitational acceleration is What is h? Note: The radius of Earth is 6380 km.
rusak2 [61]

The acceleration of gravity is inversely proportional to
the square of the distance from Earth's center.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² on the Earth's surface ...
6380 km from the center.

If the acceleration of gravity at 'h' is 4.9 m/s² ... 1/2 of what it is
on the surface, then the distance from the center is

                 (6380 x √2) =  9,023 km  (rounded) ,

and 'h' is the distance above the surface

                     = (9,023 - 6,380) =  2,643 km  (rounded) .

A cube that has a volume of 1.00 m³ contains N distinguishable particles.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

1 P = 0.5

2 P = 0.3

3 P = 0.01

Explanation:

The probability formula is

          P =V^N

Where P is the probability  V is the volume while N is the number of distinguishing particles

So for N = 1 and V = 0.500m^3

           P = (0.500m^3)^1\\

               = 0.5

For  N = 1 and V =  0.300m^3

           P = (0.300m^3)^1

               = 0.3

For   N = 1 and V = 0.0100m^3

     P =(0.0100m^3)^1

         = 0.01
