A vector is any quantity that has both a size and a direction.

Some examples of vector quantities: velocity, acceleration, displacement, electrostatic field, magnetic field, momentum, force

They all have different units of measurement for their sizes.

Which of the following represents a fully plastic collision? 1. Two billiard balls hit each other then move in opposite directio
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

Perfectly elastic collision: the collision in which the momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. There is no loss of energy in other forms of energy.

Perfectly plastic collision: The collision in which the momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. The two bodies stick after the collision.

Here, the bullet hits the block and then embedded in the block, it is the example of plastic collision.

A cue stick hits a cue ball with an average force of 22 N for a duration of 0.029 s. If the mass of the ball is 0.15 kg, how fas
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

4.25 m/s

Explanation:

Force, F = 22 N

Time, t = 0.029 s

mass, m = 0.15 kg

initial velocity of the cue ball, u = 0

Let v be the final velocity of the cue ball.

Use newton's second law

Force = rate of change on momentum

F = m (v - u) / t

22 = 0.15 ( v - 0) / 0.029

v = 4.25 m/s

Thus, the velocity of cue ball after being struck is 4.25 m/s.
