Two ice skaters stand facing each other at rest on a frozen pond. They push off against one another and the 48 kg skater acquire

s a speed of 0.67 m/s. If the other skater acquires a speed of 0.83 m/s, what is her mass in kilograms?

Answer:

The mass from the second skater is 40.2Kg

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to conservation of the moment.

By definition for the particular case we have to,

m_1u_1 = m_2v_2

Where,

m_1= Mass first skater

u_1 = Speed of first skater

v_2 = Velocity of second skater

Our values are given as,

m_1= 48Kgu_1 = 0.67m/sv_2 = 0.8m/s

Replacing in our equation and re-arrange to find m_2,

m_2 = \frac{m_1u_1}{v_2}m_2 = \frac{(48)(0.67)}{0.8}m_2 = 40.2Kg

The mass from the second skater is 40.2Kg

Answer:

38.75 kg

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = mv+m'v'................... Equation 1

Note: Since both skater were initially at rest, u = u' = 0 m/s.

Also Note that both skater moves in opposite direction after collision, and let the direction of the first skater be positive and that of the second skater be negative.

mv = -m'v'.......................... Equation 2

make m' the subject of the equation above,

m' = -mv/v'..................... Equation 3

Given: m =48 kg, v = 0.67 m/s, v = -0.83 m/s (opposite direction to the first skater)

substitute into equation 3

m' = -48(0.67)/-0.83

m' = -32.16/-0.83

m' = 38.75 kg

An athlete performing a long jump leaves the ground at a 27.0 degree angle and lands 7.80m away. What was the takeoff speed?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

=9.72 m/s

Explanation:

From the Newton's laws of motion;

x=2(v²cos∅sin∅)/g

Using geometry we see that 2 cos∅sin∅ = sin 2∅

Therefore, x= (v²sin 2∅)g,  where v is the take off speed x the range and ∅ the launch angle.

Making v the subject of the formula we obtain the following equation.

v=√{xg /(sin 2∅)}

x=7.80

∅=27.0

v=√{7.8×9.8/sin(27×2)}

v=√94.485

v=9.72 m/s

How is plastic deformation related to high temperature and pressure?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Plastic deformation of the cutting edge occurs when the tool material softens at high temperature and begins to flow under the pressure of the cutting forces. ... With cemented carbides, the higher the percentage of the binding phase (usually cobalt), the greater will be the deformation.

Sound travels faster through rigid material like steel rather than through spongy materials like rubber. Why?
drek231 [11]
<span>since sound travels using mechanical waves and needs a material medium to propagate and since mechanical waves spread through vibrations ...and since hard materials have their atoms packed closely....they need to vibrate with a smaller amplitude to pass on the wave....thus sound travels faster in a denser medium than a less dense one.</span>

vichka [17]


Hi pupil Here's Your answer :::


➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡


Student's justification is not correct. Two equal and opposite force cancel each other if the act on the same body. According to the third law of motion action and reaction forces are equal and opposite but they both act on different bodies. Hence, they cannot cancel each other.

When we push a message track, then the applied force on the truck is not sufficient to overcome the force of friction between the tyres of truck and ground, hence, truck does not move.
