Answer:

The final speed of puck 1 is 0.739 m/s towards west  and puck 2 is 2.02 m/s towards east .

Explanation:

Let us consider east as positive direction and west as negative direction .

Given

mass of puck 1 , m_1= 0.473 kg

mass of puck 2 , m_2= 0.819 kg

initial speed of puck 1 , u_1=2.76\frac{m}{s}

initial speed of puck 2 , u_2=0.00\frac{m}{s}

Final speed of puck 1 and puck 2 be v_1\, and\, v_2  respectively

Apply conservation of linear momentum

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

=>0.473\times 2.76+0.0=0.473\times v_1+0.819\times v_2

=>1.594=0.5775\times v_1+ v_2 -----(A)

Since collision is perfectly elastic , coefficient restitution e=1

u_2-u_1=v_1-v_2

=>0-2.76=v_1-v_2 ------(B)

From equation (A) and (B)

v_1=-0.739\frac{m}{s}

and v_2=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Thus the final speed of puck 1 is 0.739 m/s towards west  and puck 2 is 2.02 m/s towards east .

Prove for N/C=Volt/m
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

simple, Volt =change in potential energy/Charge

the unit of energy is newton meter (Force*distance)

the unit of charge is coloumb

So, Volt/meter=newton* meter/coloumb*meter

=newton/coloumb (hence proved)

This unit is the potential drop per unit of length in a conductive wire with uniform resistance
