A 0.200-kilogram ball A is traveling at a velocity of 2 meters/second. It hits a 1-kilogram stationary ball B. Which statement i
ioda

As we know that collision is elastic  so we will have

e = 1 = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{2 - 0}

v_2 - v_1 = 2 m/s

also we can use momentum conservation

P_{1i} + P_{2i} = P_{1f} + P_{2f}

0.200(2m/s) + 0 = 0.200 v_1 + 1v_2

0.4 = 0.2v_1 + v_2

now from above two equations we will have

1.2 v_1 = -1.6

v_1 = -1.33 m/s

also we have

v_2 = 0.66 m/s

so both balls will separate after collision and move in opposite direction as the final velocities are opposite in sign

So correct answer will be

<em>D. The balls separate and move in opposite directions.</em>

A force of 10 N causes a spring to extend by 20 mm. Find: a) the spring constant of the spring in N/m​
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

formula used K=F/∆l

∆l is the elongation of the spring

  1. F=10N
  2. ∆l=20mm===> 0.02m
  3. K=10N divided 0.02m= 500N/m

What changes dead plants and animals into ammonia compounds?
lapo4ka [179]

Nitrogen fixing bacteria changes dead plants and animals into ammonia compounds.

<h2>What is nitrogen fixation?</h2>

Atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrogen oxides by the action of lightning, which helps its incorporation into the soil.

<h3>Characteristics of Nitrogen fixing bacteria</h3>

  • Nitrogen is fixed by these bacteria and other prokaryotes through various metabolic processes, which convert it into different usable compounds, such as ammonia (NH3) and ammonium ion (NH4+).

  • These microorganisms can be found in soil and water, or as plant symbionts.

Therefore, we can conclude that nitrogen fixing bacteria fix nitrogen from the air, that is, they originate soluble compounds by plants, such as ammonia.

Two students hear the same sound and their eardrums receive the same power from the sound wave. The sound intensity at the eardr
Margaret [11]

Answer:

a. d₁/d₂ = 1.09 b. 0.054 mW

Explanation:

a. What is the ratio of the diameter of the first student's eardrum to that of the second student?

We know since the power is the same for both students, intensity I ∝ I/A where A = surface area of ear drum. If we assume it to be circular, A = πd²/4 where r = radius. So, A ∝ d²

So, I ∝ I/d²

I₁/I₂ = d₂²/d₁² where I₁ = intensity at eardrum of first student, d₁ = diameter of first student's eardrum, I₂ = intensity at eardrum of second student, d₂ = diameter of second student's eardrum.

Given that I₂ = 1.18I₁

I₂/I₁ = 1.18

Since I₁/I₂ = d₂²/d₁²

√(I₁/I₂) = d₂/d₁

d₁/d₂ = √(I₂/I₁)

d₁/d₂ = √1.18

d₁/d₂ = 1.09

So, the ratio of the diameter of the first student's eardrum to that of the second student is 1.09

b. If the diameter of the second student's eardrum is 1.01 cm. how much acoustic power, in microwatts, is striking each of his (and the other student's) eardrums?

We know intensity, I = P/A where P = acoustic power and A = area = πd²/4

Now, P = IA

= I₂A₂

= I₂πd₂²/4

= 1.18I₁πd₂²/4

Given that I₁ = 0.58 W/m² and d₂ = 1.01 cm = 1.01 × 10⁻² m

So, P = 1.18I₁πd₂²/4

= 1.18 × 0.58 W/m² × π × (1.01 × 10⁻² m)²/4

= 0.691244π × 10⁻⁴ W/4 =

2.172 × 10⁻⁴ W/4

= 0.543 × 10⁻⁴ W

= 0.0543 × 10⁻³ W

= 0.0543 mW

≅ 0.054 mW

Determine the MA based on the diagram below.
artcher [175]
There are two things that you should remember while dealing with the "Lever Mechanical Advantage" problems:

1) The Effort Arm;
2) The Resistance Arm.

Some books label the Effort Arm as in-lever arm and the Resistance Arm as out-lever arm. (Physics Jargon that you need to remember in order to solve problems)

The Effort Arm is that "part" of the lever where the force can be applied. The Resistance Arm is where some mass is placed. In the diagram, as you can see, the mass is placed on one arm of the lever. Therefore, it is the Resistance Arm.

Now the formula for the "Mechanical Advantage(MA)" is:
MA =  \frac{L_{e} }{ L_{r} }

Where L_{e} is the length of the Effort Arm(the subscript "e" stands for Effort), and L_{r} stands for the length of the Resistance Arm(here "r" stands for Resistance).

Plug in the values:

L_{e} = 15m.
L_{r} = 7m.

Therefore, L_{e} / L_{r} = 15/7 = 2.143 = MA

The correct answer is option C(2.14).

-i
