If dirt and grease were good conductors of electrical current, then we could make wire
out of dirt and grease instead of expensive copper.  Sadly, they're not. So a coating of
dirt and grease on the wire can have a substantial impact on the connection, and can
even block the flow of current across the connection completely.  Moreover, in the case
where the ends of the wires are to be soldered, solder does not adhere to dirty wire.

What's the formula to find out power
Julli [10]

In general, 

                 Power = (energy moved) / (time to move the energy) .

If it's mechanical power, then     

                 Power = (work done) / (time to do the work) .

If it's electrical power, then it can be any one of these:

                 Power  =  (volts)  x  (amperes)

                 Power  =  (volts)²  /  (resistance, ohms)

                 Power  =  (amperes)²  x  (resistance, ohms) .

Whatever kind of energy you're dealing with, power always
turns out to be

                  (amount of energy produced, used, or moved)
divided by
                  (time taken to produce, use, or move the energy) .

A 3.35 kg object initially moving in the positive x direction with a velocity of 4.90 m s collides with and sticks to a 1.88 kg
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first object, m₁ = 3.35 kg

initial velocity of the first object, u₁ = 4.90 m/s in positive x-direction

mass of the second object, m₂ = 1.88 kg

initial velocity of the second object, u₂ = 3.12 m/s in negative y-direction

initial momentum of the first object, P₁ = 3.35 x 4.9 = 16.415 kgm/s

initial momentum of the second object, P₂ = 1.88 x 3.12 = 5.8656 kgm/s

The resultant velocity of the two objects is given by;

R² = 16.415² + 5.8656²

R² = 303.858

R = √303.858

R = 17.432 kgm/s

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

total initial momentum before = total final momentum after collision

P₁(x) + P₂(y) = Pf

R = Pf

R = v(m₁ + m₂)

17.432 = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final components of velocity of the composite object

v = \frac{17.432}{m_1 + m_2} \\\\v = \frac{17.432}{3.35+1.88} \\\\v = 3.33 \ m/s

Therefore, the final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.
