Answer:

0.49 m/s

Explanation:

The law of conservation of linear momentum states that the sum of momentum in a system before and after collision are same. Momentum is a product of mass and velocity of an object hence in this case

$m_cu_c+m_8u_8=m_cv_u+m_8v_8$

Where m represent mass, u and v represent the initial and final velocities respectively, subscripts c and 8 represent cue ball and number 8 ball respectively.

Since number 8 ball is initially at rest, its initial velocity is zero. Replacing mass of cue ball with 170 g while mass of number 8 ball with 160g, then taking final velocity of cue ball as 0.2 m/s and final velocity of 8 ball as 0.3 m/s then we get

$170u_c+160*0=170*0.2+170*0.3\\u_c\approx 0.49 m/s$

A plastic film moves over two drums. During a 4-s interval the speed of the tape is increased uniformly from v0 = 2ft/s to v1 =

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Question 1)

a) The speed of the drums is increased from 2 ft/s to 4 ft/s in 4 s. From the below kinematic equations the acceleration of the drums can be determined.

$v_1 = v_0 + at \\4 = 2 + 4a\\a = 0.5~ft/s^2$

This is the linear acceleration of the drums. Since the tape does not slip on the drums, by the rule of rolling without slipping,

$v = \omega R\\a = \alpha R$

where α is the angular acceleration.

In order to continue this question, the radius of the drums should be given.

Let us denote the radius of the drums as R, the angular acceleration of drum B is

α = 0.5/R.

b) The distance travelled by the drums can be found by the following kinematics formula:

$v_1^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax\\4^2 = 2^2 + 2(0.5)x\\x = 12 ft$

One revolution is equal to the circumference of the drum. So, total number of revolutions is

$x / (2\pi R) = 6/(\pi R)$

Question 2)

a) In a rocket propulsion question, the acceleration of the rocket can be found by the following formula:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{13000}{2600}25 = 125~ft/s^2$

b) $a = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = - \frac{13000}{400}25 = 812.5~ft/s^2$
