Given two identical 2.2 kg masses. The first mass is moving with a velocityFind the kinetic energy of the compound system immedi

ately after the collision. Answer in units of J.v1 immediately before colliding with the second mass, which is suspended by a string of length 0.82 m . The two masses are stuck together as a result of the collision. The compound system then swings to the right and rises to the horizontal level. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2

Answer:

E_k = 0.55v_1^2 J

h = 0.0128v_1^2

where v_1 is the initial velocity of the moving block

Explanation:

We can apply the law of momentum conservation to calculate the compund velocity post-collision:

m_1v_1 +m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

where m_1 = m_2 = 2.2 kg are the masses of block 1 (the moving block) and block 2. v_1 , v_2 are the initial velocities before collision of block 1 and 2, and v_2 = 0m/s as it's at rest initially.

2.2v_1 + 0 = (2.2 + 2.2)v

v = 2.2v_1/4.4 = 0.5v_1

So the kinetic energy right after the collision is

E_k = \frac{(m_1 + m_2)v^2}{2} = \frac{(2.2 + 2.2)(0.5v_1)^2}{2} = \frac{4.4*0.25v_1^2}{2} = 0.55v_1^2 J

To calculate the horizontal level where the compound rises to, we need to apply the law energy conservation. As the compound rises its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the mass and h is the vertical distance traveled, v is the velocity at the bottom, and g = 9.8 m/s2 is the gravitational acceleration.We can divide both sides by m:

gh = v^2/2

h = v^2/(2g) = (0.5v_1)^2/(2g) = v_1^2/(8*9.8) = 0.0128v_1^2

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the
GaryK [48]

We will determine the wavelength through the relationship given by the distance between slits, this relationship is given under the function

y = \frac{m\lambda}{d}

Here,

m = Number of order bright fringe

\lambda = Wavelength

d = Distance between slits

Both distance are the same, then

y_1 = y_2

\frac{m_1\lambda_1 r}{d} = \frac{m_2\lambda_2 r}{d}

\frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2\lambda_2} =1

 Rearranging to find the second wavelength

m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda _2

\lambda_2 = \frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2}

\lambda_2 = \frac{7(629)}{8}

\lambda_2 = 550.3nm

Therefore the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source is 550.3nm

A 350-g mass is attached to a spring whose spring constant is 64 N/m. Its maximum acceleration is 5.3 m/s2. What is the frequenc
max2010maxim [7]

The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz

What is the frequency of spring?

Spring Frequency is the natural frequency of spring with a weight at the lower end. Spring is fixed from the upper end and the lower end is free.

For the mass-spring system in this problem,

The Frequency of spring is calculated with the equation:

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

Where,

f = frequency of spring

k = spring constant = 64 N/m

m = mass attached to spring = 350g = 0.350 kg

a = maximum acceleration = 5.3 m/s^2

Substituting the values in the equation,

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{64}{0.350} }

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } ( 13.522)

f = 2.1535 Hz

Hence,

The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz
