Answer:
Incomplete question: "Each block has a mass of 0.2 kg"
The speed of the two-block system's center of mass just before the blocks collide is 2.9489 m/s
Explanation:
Given data:
θ = angle of the surface = 37°
m = mass of each block = 0.2 kg
v = speed = 0.35 m/s
t = time to collision = 0.5 s
Question: What is the speed of the two-block system's center of mass just before the blocks collide, vf = ?
Change in momentum:
It is neccesary calculate the force:
Here, g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Answer:
B
Explanation:
This is a physics question, know that force is equals to mass divided by acceleration (acc.), so if the same force is applied, say 10 Newton and the mass of A is 2 and the mass of B is 4, then the acceleration of A is 0.2 and that of B is 0.4 by equating, and this applies to all cases.
For any mass m:
a = F/m
v = √2*F/m*s = √2F/sm = k/√m
Momentum = mv = k√m
Energy = 1/ mv² = 1/2 m.k²/m = 1/2k²
SO
Both will have same energy
The larger mass will have greater momentum
