Two gliders collide on a frictionless air track that is aligned along the x axis. Glider A has an initial velocity v0 and glider

B is initially at rest. After they collide, A has a velocity 12v0 and B has a velocity 92v0. Find the ratio of the gliders' masses, mAmB.

Answer:

Explanation:

Applying conservation of momentum

mA v0 + 0 = mA x 12v0 + mB x 92v0

11 mA = - 92mB .

mA / mB = 92 / 11

mA : mB = 92 : 11.

The total mechanical energy of a basketball is 400 J. If the kinetic energy is 286 J, what must the potential energy be?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

the potential energy is 114 J.

Explanation:

Given;

total mechanical energy, E = 400 J

kinetic energy, K.E = 286 J

The potential energy is calculated as follows;

E = K.E +  P.E

where;

P.E is the potential energy

P.E = E - K.E

P.E = 400 J - 286 J

P.E = 114 J

Therefore, the potential energy is 114 J.

Explain in terms of impulse how padding reduces forces in a collision. State this in terms of a real example, such as the advant
Lena [83]

Answer:

Impulse = Average force x time of contact

Explanation:

Impulsive force is a force which is very large but applied on a body for a very small duration of time.

Impulse is given by the change in momentum of the body.

Impulse = Average force x small time interval

When padding is there, the time interval of contact is large and thus, the force exerted by the body is small.

So, when a person falls on the tile floor, there is no compression and thus, the time of contact is very small and thus the impulsive force is very large, due to  which the body may damage.

So, when a person falls on the carpeted floor, there is a compression and thus, the time of contact is comparatively large and thus the impulsive force is small, due to  which the body may safe.
