<u>Answer:</u> The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the <u>bottle.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.

m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.

We are given:

m_1=0.4kg\\u_1=18m/s\\v_1=?m/s\\m_2=0.2kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=25m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

(0.4\times 18)+(0.2\times 0)=(0.4\times v_1)+(0.2\times 25)\\\\v_1=5.5m/s

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

Answer:

Momentum is given by

p

=

v

. Impulse is the change of momentum,

I

=

Δ

and is also equal to force times time:

This is called the impulse:

We can rearrange this expression to make

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.

(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)

Showing results for a 4 olm and 8 ohm resistor are connected in series. The current through the 4 olm resistor is 2 amps. What i
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Let R1= resistance of 4ohms

R2= resistance of 8ohms

Equivalent resistance R will be

R=R1 + R2

=> 4+8=12ohms

The current through the two resistors will be the same since they are connected in series. Notwithstanding, the voltage will drop to appreciate the change.

zaharov [31]
Batteries always use direct current. That eliminates A and C. The other part of the answers is just asking what direct/alternating means. Alternating currents change directions moving one way then another. Direct current only moves in one direction. Therefore, the answer is D, since the current is direct and direct currents move in one direction.
