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!

Lead atoms occupy a volume of 3 x 10-29 m3. Each atom contributes two free electrons. Calculate the Fermi velocity of lead.
Juliette [100K]

<u>Answer:</u> The Fermi velocity of lead is 64.4 km/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the Fermi velocity, we use the equation:

V_f=\frac{h}{2\pi m_e}(\frac{3\pi^2N}{V})^{1/3}

where,

h = Planck's constant = 6.62\times 10^{-34}Js

m_e = mass of electron = 9.1\times 10^{-31}kg

N = Number of atoms present in per volume of atom multiplied by number of electrons present in given atom = \frac{2\times N_A\times V}{M}

N_A = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{26}mol^{-1}    (When the mass is in kilograms)

V = Volume = 3\times 10^{-29}m^3

M = molecular weight of lead = 207.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V_f=\frac{6.62\times 10^{-34}}{2\times 3.14\times (9.1\times 10^{-31})}(\frac{3\times (3.14)^2\times (2\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\times 3\times 10^{-29})}{3\times 10^{-29}\times 207.2})^{1/3}

V_f=0.0644\times 10^6m/s=64.4km/s     (Conversion factor: 1 km = 1000 m)

Hence, the Fermi velocity of lead is 64.4 km/s

Why do seat belts help protect passengers when a car stops quickly? Explain your answer in terms of forces and motions.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

If the driver is wearing a seat belt, the seat belt rather than the windshield applies the unbalanced force that stops the driver's forward motion. The force from the seat belt is applied over a longer time, so the force causes less damage.
