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

You rubbed two identical balloons in your hair's friend. This causes the balloons to become charged negatively with a magnitude
dem82 [27]

Answer:

a)  F = 2.25 10³ N, b) REPULSIVE.

Explanation:

a) The electric force is given by coulomb's law

           F = k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}k q1q2 / r2

in this case nso indicate that the two charges have the same value

           q₁ = q₂ = 2.5 10⁻⁶ C

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

           r = 0.5 cm (1m / 100cm) = 5 10⁻³ m

let's calculate

           F = 9 \ 10^9 \frac{(2.5 \ 10^{-6})^2 }{(5 \ 10^{-3})^2}

           F = 2.25 10³ N

b) In electricity, electric charges of the same sign repel and those of the opposite sign attract

In this exercise, the balls are equal and are rubbed with the same material, for which it acquires charges of the same type, consequently, as the charges are of the same type, they indicate that the negative force is REPULSIVE.

In 1909, galileo first looked at the milky way using very powerful binoculars
anastassius [24]
<span>Galileo first studied the Milky Way through his telescope in January, 1610 not 1909. Until his observations, the Milky Way was thought to be a band of wispy whitish clouds passing through the heavens. To Galileo's amazement, instead of seeing just a nebula (the Greek work for cloud) the milky wisps resolved into innumerable tiny stars, so crowded together that, without the aid of a telescope, the light from those stars simply blended together. </span>

Sergei uses a lever to lift a heavy rock. He obtains a 2.5m lever and places the fulcrum 0.7m from the rock. What is the ideal m
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

m = 3.57

Explanation:

Given that,

Sergei uses a lever to lift a heavy rock. He obtains a 2.5m lever and places the fulcrum 0.7m from the rock.

We need to find the ideal mechanical advantage of Sergei's lever.

It is equal to the ratio of resistance arm to the effort arm. In terms of length it is given by :

m=\dfrac{d_2}{d_1}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5}{0.7}\\\\=3.57

So, the ideal mechanical advantage of the lever is 3.57.

What is the potential energy of a 20-kg safe sitting on a shelf 0.5 meters
ki77a [65]

Explanation:

P.E=MGH

Where m is mass

Where G is Acceleration Due to Gravity

Where h is Height

So the parameters are M = 20kg

G = 9.8m/s

H = 0.5meters

P.E= 20x9.8x0.5

=98J.

So Ans. is A= 98J

A projectile proton with a speed of 500 m/s collides elastically with a target proton initially at rest. the two protons thenmov
Kay [80]

Because the two paths are perpendicular, therefore the target proton's new path must be at 30 degrees from the original direction. 

Using the law of conservation of momentum about the original direction: 
m (400 m/s) = m (v1) cos(60) + m (v2) cos(30) 
Cancelling m since the two protons have similar mass.
(v1)cos(60) + (v2)cos(30) = 500 m/s                         ---> 1

Now by using the law conservation of momentum perpendicular to the original direction: 
m (0 m/s) = m (v1) sin(60) – m (v2) sin(30) 
Which simplifies to:
(v1)sin(60) - (v2)sin(30) = 0 m/s                                
v2 = v1 * sin(60) / sin(30) = v1 * sqrt(3)                  ---> 2

Plugging equation 2 to equation 1: 
(v1) (1/2) + (v1 * sqrt(3)) sqrt(3)/2 = 500 m/s 
(1/2) (v1) + (3/2) (v1) = 500 m/s 
2 (v1) = 500 m/s 
v1 = 250 m/s 

Thus, from equation 2:

v2 = v1*sqrt(3) = (250 m/s) sqrt(3) = 433.01 m/s 


So,
A. The target proton's speed is about 433 m/s 
B. The projectile proton's speed is 250 m/s
