Two identical blocks are connected to opposite ends of a compressed spring. the blocks initially slide together on a frictionles

s surface with a velocity v to the right. at some instant, the left block is moving at v/2 to the left and the other block is moving to the right. what is the speed of the center of the mass of they system at that instant?

Answer:

v to the right.

Explanation:

<u>If there is no external force on the system, then the velocity of the center of mass is </u><u>constant</u><u>. </u>

The initial velocity of center of mass is v to the right. Therefore, the velocity of the center of mass at any point is v to the right.

How do we know that galaxy clusters contain a lot of mass in the form of hot gas that fills spaces between individual galaxies?.
Olin [163]

while the gas  is detected with X-ray telescopes, that's how we get to know  that galaxy clusters contain a lot of mass in the form of hot gas that fills spaces between individual galaxies

The galaxy may be a gravitationally bound substance, ordinarily comprising dark matter, gas, dust, and stars. Galaxies populate the Universe, primarily residing in groups and clusters. Most galaxies have an add up to mass between ~ 107 M⊙ and 1012 M⊙. The galaxies within the Universe are always changing – through secular advancement, mergers, and interactions. An X-ray telescope may be a telescope that's outlined to observe farther objects within the X-ray spectrum. The fundamental components of the telescope are the optics ( collimating), which collects the radiation entering the telescope, and the detector, on which the radiation is collected and measured. An assortment of different plans and advances have been utilized for these elements.

The resistance of an electric heater is 50 Ω when connected to 120 V. How much energy does it use during 15 min of operation?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I = V/R = 120 V/ 50 Ω = 2.4 A

P = VI = 120(2.4) = 288 W = 288 J/s

288 J/s (15 min(60s / min)) = 259,200 J

or the electric company would charge for

288 W / (1000 W/kW)•(15/60) hr = 0.072 kW•hr

At $0.20 / kW•hr, that would be under 1½ cents

Elanso [62]
I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research. "<span>The charge can be located anywhere, since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere" gives the answer to the question. I hope that this answer has come to your help.</span>
