If a 3.5 gram ping pong ball were traveling to the right horizontally at 12 m/s, and a larger 12 g super ball were thrown direct

ly behind it (also to the right) at 15 m/s so that the super ball bumped into and elastically collided with the ping pong ball, what would be the velocities of the two balls after the collision

Answer:

v = 14.32 m/s

Explanation:

According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, both the momentum and kinetic energy of the system are conserved. Since the two balls are in the same direction of motion before collision, then;

m_{1} u_{1} + m_{2} u_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2}) v

0.035 × 12 + 0.120 × 15 = (0.035 + 0.120) v

0.420 + 1.800 = (0.155) v

2.22 = 0.155 v

⇒ v = \frac{2.22}{0.155}

      = 14.323

The velocity of the balls after collision is 14.32 m/s.

A mass attached to a 50.0 cm long string starts from rest and is rotated 40 times in one minute before reaching a final angular
ch4aika [34]

To solve this problem it is only necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion description, for this purpose we know by definition that,

\theta = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2 +\omega_0 t + \theta_0

Where,

\theta = Angular Displacement

\alpha =Angular Acceleration

\omega_0 = Angular velocity

\theta_0 =Initial angular displacement

For this case we have neither angular velocity nor initial angular displacement, then

\theta = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Re-arrange for \alpha,

\alpha = \frac{2\theta}{t^2}

Replacing our values,

\alpha = \frac{2(40rev*\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})}{60^2}

\alpha = 0.139rad/s

Therefore the ANgular acceleration of the mass is 0.139rad/s^2

31. Draw a free body diagram for a 15.5N box that is being pushed to the right with a 18. N force while experiencing 4.30 N of r
posledela

Answer:

See answers below

Explanation:

a.

F = mg,

15.5 N = m(9.8 m/s²)

m = 1.58 kg

b.

Fnet = Applied force - resistance,

Fnet = 18 N - 4.30 N,

Fnet = 13.70 N

Fnet = ma

13.70 N = (1.58 kg)a

a = 8.67 m/s²

For the free body diagram, draw a box with an upward arrow labeled 15.5 N, a downward label labeled 15.5 N, a right label labeled 18 N, and a left label labeled 4.30 N.

Electromagnetic waves are ........... by shiny surfaces.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves are reflected

Explanation:

Reflection of light (and other forms of electromagnetic radiation) occurs when the waves encounter a surface or other boundary that does not absorb the energy of the radiation and bounces the waves away from the surface. ... This concept is often termed the Law of Reflection.
