A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.

Physics

If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.

Rather than ascribing the increased kinetic energy of the stone to the work of gravity, we now (when using potential energy rath
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Change/ Potential

Explanation:

Work is the amount of energy required to perform an action that is for a force to cause a displacement.

From work-energy theorem, work done by body is equal to change in its kinetic energy.

Work of gravity is basically the potential energy stored in the body due to gravity. From the law of conservation of mechanical energy, increased kinetic energy comes from the change of the potential energy of the stone.

Determine the value of the resultant and its location from O.<br>see attach image.​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the x direction the force will be

½(-w₀)L/2 = -¼w₀L  

acting ⅔(L/2) = L/3 below the x axis.

In the y direction the force will be

½(-w₀)L + ½w₀L/2 = -¼w₀L  

the magnitude of the resultant will be

F = w₀L  √((-¼)² + (-¼)²) = w₀L√⅛

in the direction

θ = arctan(-¼w₀L / -¼w₀L) = 225°

to find the distance, we balance moments

(w₀L√⅛)[d] = ½(w₀)L[⅔L] + ¼w₀L[⅔L/2] - ¼w₀L[L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] = ½         [⅔L] + ¼      [⅔L/2] - ¼      [L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] = ½[⅔L] + ¼[⅔L/2] - ¼[L - ⅓L/2]

     (√⅛)[d] =      ⅓L  +    ⅟₁₂L     -  ¼L + ⅟₂₄L  

     (√⅛)[d] = 5L/24

               d = 5L/24 / (√⅛)

               d = 5√⅛L/3

Do objects tend to stay moving because of a force called Interia
ahrayia [7]

The first law of Newton’s law state an object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon with an outside force. Other know as the law of inertia so yes it does

How many paths do the electrons have to flowlin a series circuit?
AleksandrR [38]
One path because in a series circuit it is only one path while in a parallel circuit you have 2 or more. Our houses use parallel so that is why you can turn off one light and the rest would stay on.
