A cue ball initially moving at 3.4 m/s strikes a stationary eight ball of the same size and mass. After the collision, the cue b
romanna [79]

Answer:

speed of eight ball speed after the collision is 3.27 m/s

Explanation:

given data

initially moving v1i = 3.4 m/s

final speed is v1f = 0.94 m/s

angle = θ w.r.t. original line of motion

solution

we assume elastic collision

so here using conservation of energy

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy .............1

before collision kinetic energy = 0.5 × m× (v1i)²

and

after collision kinetic energy =  0.5 × m× (v1f)²  + 0.5 × m× (v2f)²

put in equation 1

0.5 × m× (v1i)² =  0.5 × m× (v1f)²  + 0.5 × m× (v2f)²

(v2f)² = (v1i)² - (v1f)²

(v2f)² = 3.4² - 0.94²

(v2f)² = 10.68

taking the square root both

v2f = 3.27 m/s

speed of eight ball speed after the collision is 3.27 m/s

1. Jen is stepping out of a boat on to a dock. She has one foot on the dock and one foot in
Gemiola [76]

you tend to push off with the foot still on the boat.

Newtons 3rd law of motion hold that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

So, the amount of force you use on your back foot to push yourself onto the dock, has an equal end opposite amount of force going the other way from your sole of your foot, which pushes the boat the other way.

The same principle applies when you fire a cannon - in the pirate films, you see the body of the cannon forced back as it is fired.

Take it one step further, Henry VIII flagship, “Mary Rose fired all its cannons together one day in a broad side, the opposite force rolled the ship over and sank it.

A 5000 kg railcar hits a bumper (a spring) at 1 m/s, and the spring compresses 0.1 meters. Assume no damping. a) Find the spring
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

k = 0.5 MN/m

Explanation:

Mass of the railcar, m = 5000 kg

Speed of the rail car, v = 1 m/s

The Kinetic energy(KE) of the railcar is given by the equation:

KE = 0.5 mv²

KE = 0.5 * 5000 * 1²

KE = 2500 J

The spring's compression, x = 0.1 m

The potential energy(PE) stored in the spring is given by the equation:

PE = 0.5kx²

PE = 0.5 * k * 0.1²

PE = 0.005k

According to the principle of energy conservation, Kinetic energy of the railcar equals the potential energy stored in the spring

KE = PE

2500 = 0.005k

k = 2500/0.005

k = 500000 N/m

k = 0.5 MN/m

A circular track has a radius of 50m.What is the displacement?
stepladder [879]

The displacement of a moving object is the straight-line distance between the place it starts from and the place where it stops.

The displacement of anything moving along a circular track depends on how  far around it goes before it stops.  The greatest displacement it can possibly have is the diameter of the track ... 100m on this particular one ... because that's as far apart as two places on a circle can ever be.

The most interesting case is when the object goes around the circle exactly once.  Then it stops at the same place it started from, the distance between the starting point and ending point is zero, and after all that motion, the displacement is zero.

Mary applies a force of 71 N to push a box with an acceleration of 0.57 m/s2. When she increases the pushing force to 82 N, the
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

(a). The mass of the box is 47.8 kg.

(b). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box is 0.093.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 71 N

Acceleration = 0.57 m/s²

Pushing force = 82 N

Change acceleration = 0.80 m/s²

(a). We need to calculate the mass of the box

Using balance equation

N-f=ma

Put the value in the equation

71-f=m\times0.57....(I)

82-f=m\times0.80....(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

82-71=m(0.80-0.57)

11=m\times0.23

m=\dfrac{11}{0.23}

m=47.8\ kg

The mass of the box is 47.8 kg.

(b). We need to calculate the friction force

Now, put the value of m in equation (I)

71-f=47.8\times0.57

-f=47.8\times0.57-71

f=43.75\ N

We need to calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box

Using friction force

f=\mu mg

\mu=\dfrac{f}{mg}

\mu=\dfrac{43.75}{47.8\times9.8}

\mu=0.093

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box is 0.093.

Hence, (a). The mass of the box is 47.8 kg.

(b). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box is 0.093.
