In that case, their momentum must be equal. 
So, m1v1 = m2v2
20 * 20 = 40 * v2
v2 = 400 / 40
v2 = 10

In short, Your Answer would be: 10 m/s

Hope this helps!

In this circuit (see picture), which resistor will draw the least power?
Basile [38]
A few different ways to do this: 

Way #1: 
The current in the series loop is  (12 V) / (total resistance) . 
(Turns out to be 2 Amperes, but the question isn't asking for that.)

In a series loop, the current is the same at every point, so it's
the same current through each resistor.

The power dissipated by a resistor is  (current)² · (resistance),
and the current is the same everywhere in the circuit, so the
smallest resistance will dissipate the least power.  That's  R1 .

And by the way, it's not "drawing" the most power.  It's dissipating it.

Way #2:
Another expression for the power dissipated by a resistance is

                 (voltage across the resistance)²  /  (resistance)  .

In a series loop, the voltage across each resistor is

          [ (individual resistance) / (total resistance ] x battery voltage.

So the power dissipated by each resistor is

         (individual resistance)² x [(battery voltage) / (total resistance)²]

This expression is smallest for the smallest individual resistance.
(The other two quantities are the same for each individual resistor.)
So again, the least power is dissipated by the smallest individual resistance.
That's R1 .                                      

Way #3:  (Einstein's way)
If we sat back and relaxed for a minute, stared at the ceiling, let our minds
wander, puffed gently on our pipe, and just daydreamed about this question
for a minute or two, we might have easily guessed at the answer.

===>  When you wire up a battery and a light bulb in series, the part
that dissipates power, and gets so hot that it radiates heat and light, is
the light bulb (some resistance), not the wire (very small resistance).

On the EM spectrum, visible light is found between
stich3 [128]
Visible light is found between infrared rays (lower frequency, higher wavelength) and ultraviolet rays (higher frequency, lower wavelength). This the spectrum of light that we are able to see reflected back at us, and is also the spectrum of color that we are able to see.

A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.50 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting
IrinaK [193]

Answer:1265 N

Explanation:

Given

acceleration of motorcycle \left ( a\right )=3.5 m/s^2

Velocity \left ( v\right )=90 km/h\approx 25m/s

Air friction and Friction\left ( f\right )=425 N

mass of the motorcycle with rider\left ( m\right )=240 Kg

Applying Forces on motorcycle

F_{engine}-f=ma

F_{engine}=f+ma

F_{engine}=425+240\left ( 3.5\right )

F_{engine}=425+840=1265 N

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is  \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the point charge is  q_1 =  70 \ nC  =  70 *10^{-9} \  C

      The diameter of the rubber shell is  d = 32 \ cm  =  0.32 \ m

       The Electric field inside the rubber shell is  E =  2500 \ N/ C

The radius of the rubber is  mathematically evaluated as

              r =  \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{0.32}{2}  =  0.16 \ m

Generally the electric field for a point  is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

         E =  \frac{Q}{ \epsilon }  *  \frac{1}{4 *  \pi r^2}

Where \epsilon is the permittivity of rubber

    =>     E  *  \epsilon  *  4 * \pi *  r^2 =  Q

   =>      \epsilon  =  \frac{Q}{E *  4 *  \pi *  r^2}

substituting values

            \epsilon  =  \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 *  4 *  3.142 *  (0.16)^2}

            \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}
