Blocks A (5.00 kg) and B (10.00 kg) move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Initially, block B is at rest and block A is mov

ing toward it at 4.00 m/s. The blocks are equipped with ideal spring bumpers. The collision is head-on, so all motion before and after the collision is along a straight line. What is the maximum energy stored in the spring bumpers during the collision process

Answer: 1.33m/s: 13.326j

Explanation:

M1U1+M2U2=V(M1+M2)

M1=5kg, M2=10kg

U1=4.00m/s, U2=0

5*4+10*0=V(10+5)

20+0=15V

20=15V

V=20/15

V=1.333m/s

K. E=1/2MV^2

K. E= 1/2*15*1.332^2

K. E= 1/2*15*1.77689

K. E=26.65335/2

K. E=13.326j

Ngan has a weight of 314.5 N on Mars and a weight 833.0 N on Earth. What is Ngan's mass on Earth?
mr_godi [17]

Ngan's mass on earth is 85kg.

Ngan has a weight on Mars = 14.5 N

Ngan’s weight on Earth = 833.0 N

Ngan’s mass on Earth = ?

<span>Fg,earth = mg(earth)</span>

<span>M = Fg,earth </span><span>/ g(earth)</span>

<span>M = 833.0 N / 9.8 m/s2</span>

<span>M = 85 kg</span>

A pair of adult nitwits sit balanced on a teeter totter type device. One of them, whose mass is 54.2 kg, is 1.20 m from the poin
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The mass of the second person is 28.91 kg

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first adult, m₁ = 54.2 kg

distance of the first adult from the point of balance, x = 1.20 m

mass of the second adult, = m₂

distance of the second adult from the point of balance, y = 2.25 m

Taking moment about the point of balance, we will have

m₁x = m₂y

54.2 x 1.2 = 2.25y

2.25y = 65.04

y = 65.04/2.25

y = 28.91 kg

Therefore, the mass of the second person is 28.91 kg

Which form of Kepler’s third law can you use to relate the period T and radius r of a planet in our solar system as long as the
ser-zykov [4K]

T2=r In the form of Kepler's law that can use to relate the period T and radius of the planet in our solar systems

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Kepler's third law:</u>

  • Kepler's third law states that For all planets, the square of the orbital

     period (T) of a planet is proportional to the cube of the average orbital    radius (R).

  • In simple words T (square) is proportional to the R(cube) T²2 ∝1 R³3
  • T2 / R3 = constant = 4π ² /GM

      where G = 6.67 x 10-11 N-m2 /kg2

        M = mass of the foci body
