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.

A searchlight is 210 ft from a straight wall. As the beam moves along the​ wall, the angle between the beam and the perpendicula
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The length of the beam increasing is 9.64 ft/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 210 ft

Distance =290 ft

According to figure,

We need to calculate the angle

\cos\theta=\dfrac{210}{x}....(I)

Put the value of x in the equation

\cos\theta=\dfrac{210}{290}

\cos\theta=\dfrac{21}{29}=0.72

Now, \sin\theta=\dfrac{20}{29}

On differentiate of equation (I)

-\sin\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=-\dfrac{-210}{x^2}\dfrac{dx}{dt}

\sin\theta=\dfrac{210}{x^2}\dfrac{dx}{dt}

Put the value in the equation

\sin\dfrac{20}{29}\times2.0=\dfrac{210}{(290)^2}\dfrac{dx}{dt}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\sin\dfrac{20}{29}\times2.0\times\dfrac{290^2}{210}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=9.64\ ft/s

Hence, The length of the beam increasing is 9.64 ft/s.

How do the Sun, Earth, and Moon systems interact
Nataly [62]

The sun is the mother star of the solar system, which only emits light to half of the planet, while the other part is always dark.

The sun emits light towards the earth, which dominates all life on earth. The movements of the Moon around the Earth and of the Earth around the Sun are complex. Movements of rotation around their own axes are superimposed on movements of orbital translation. The Earth and the Moon rotate around their own axes: This is rotation.

Prove the three laws of motion​
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The first law, also called the law of inertia, was pioneered by Galileo. This was quite a conceptual leap because it was not possible in Galileo's time to observe a moving object without at least some frictional forces dragging against the motion. In fact, for over a thousand years before Galileo, educated individuals believed Aristotle's formulation that, wherever there is motion, there is an external force producing that motion.

The second law, $ f(t)=m\,a(t)$ , actually implies the first law, since when $ f(t)=0$ (no applied force), the acceleration $ a(t)$ is zero, implying a constant velocity $ v(t)$ . (The velocity is simply the integral with respect to time of $ a(t)={\dot v}(t)$ .)

Newton's third law implies conservation of momentum [138]. It can also be seen as following from the second law: When one object ``pushes'' a second object at some (massless) point of contact using an applied force, there must be an equal and opposite force from the second object that cancels the applied force. Otherwise, there would be a nonzero net force on a massless point which, by the second law, would accelerate the point of contact by an infinite amount.

All of the outer planets are much larger than the inner planets true or false
Rama09 [41]
That statement is false because yes Jupiter and Saturn are large, however, planets like Uranus and Neptune are quite small if not smaller than some of the inner planets.
