In a two-body collision, if the momentum of the system is conserved, then which of the

Physics
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

c) may also be conserved

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved  in both elastic and inelastic type of collisions.

But the differences is that:

In an ELASTIC type of collisions, KINETIC ENERGY IS ALSO CONSERVED.

whereas, In an INELASTIC type of collision, KINETIC ENERGY IS NOT CONSERVED.

So unless until type of collision is specified, we can not say anything about the conservation of kinetic energy after collision.

Hence, may also be conserved is the appropriate option here.

Heather and Matt take 34 minutes to walk eastward along a straight road to a store 2.0km away. What is their average velocity in
frez [133]

Their average velocity is 0.98 m/s east.

Explanation:

The average velocity of an object is defined as the ratio between the displacement and the time taken:

v=\frac{displacement}{time}

The displacement is a vector connecting the initial point to the final point of motion: so, being displacement a vector, velocity is a vector as well, having the same direction of displacement.

Here, Heather and Matt walk 2.0 km eastward, so their displacement is

d = 2.0 km = 2000 m (east)

While the time they took is

t=34 min \cdot 60 = 2040 s

Therefore, their average velocity is

v=\frac{2000}{2040}=0.98 m/s

And the direction is the same as the displacement (east).

Copernicus incorrectly assumed that the planets?
hammer [34]
Nicholas Copernicus correctly assumed that the planets revolved around the sun but he incorrectly assumed that the planets followed a perfect circle orbit around the sun. It was later on discovered by Johannes Kepler that the planets moved around the sun following an elliptical orbit.

How fast would you have to travel on the surface of earth at the equator to keep up with the sun (that is, so that the sun would
professor190 [17]

Answer: 1037 miles per hour

Explanation: In order to see the sun in the same position in the sky, you would have to travel against the speed of rotation of the earth, because this is what causes the sun to appear in a constantly changing position.

Because of this, we will have to calculate the speed of rotation of the earth. To get started, we must know the circumference of the earth. Assuming the circumference formula for a sphere,

Circumference=2\pi R

Where R is the radius of the earth, we find that the perimeter of the earth is approximately 24881 miles. The equation to calculate speed is given by

v=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Because the earth completes one rotation in 24 hours, we have to find the speed of rotation as the perimeter of the earth divided by 24 hours.

The obtained result is 1037 miles per hour.

You would have to travel at 1037 miles per hour in the direction opposite to the direction the rotation is ocurring in.

When you jump from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. By doing this, you make the time o
dsp73

Answer:

c. about 1/10 as great.

Explanation:

While jumping form a certain height when we bend our knees upon reaching  the ground such that the time taken to come to complete rest is increased by 10 times then the impact force gets reduced to one-tenth of the initial value when we would not do so.

This is in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change in velocity is directly proportional to the force applied on the body.

Mathematically:

F\propto\frac{d}{dt} (p)

\Rightarrow F=\frac{d}{dt} (m.v)

since mass is constant

F=m\frac{d}{dt}v

when dt=10t

then,

F'=m.\frac{v}{10\times t}

F'=\frac{1}{10} \times \frac{m.v}{t}

F'=\frac{F}{10} the body will experience the tenth part of the maximum force.

where:

\frac{d}{dt} = represents the rate of change in dependent quantity with respect to time

p= momentum

m= mass of the person jumping

v= velocity of the body while hitting the ground.
