Answer
given,
mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg
velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s
mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg
velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s
a) momentum of ball before collision
P₁ = m v
P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7
P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s
b) momentum of ball after collision
P₂ = m v'
P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)
P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s
c) change in momentum
Δ P = P₂ - P₁
Δ P = -1.696 -1.535
Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s
d) using conservation of momentum
initial speed of racket = 0 m/s
M u + m v = Mu' + m v
M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)
0.331 u' = 3.232
u' = 9.76 m/s
change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
Although the semi truck certainly has a larger mass, it is not in motion and therefore does not have any momentum. The bicycle however has both mass and velocity and therefore has the larger momentum of the pair.
Answer:
≅50°
Explanation:
We have a bullet flying through the air with only gravity pulling it down, so let's use one of our kinematic equations:
Δx=V₀t+at²/2
And since we're using Δx, V₀ should really be the initial velocity in the x-direction. So:
Δx=(V₀cosθ)t+at²/2
Now luckily we are given everything we need to solve (or you found the info before posting here):
- Δx=760 m
- V₀=87 m/s
- t=13.6 s
- a=g=-9.8 m/s²; however, at 760 m, the acceleration of the bullet is 0 because it has already hit the ground at this point!
With that we can plug the values in to get:




Answer:
n = 1.4
Explanation:
Given,
R1 = 18 cm, R2 = -18 cm
From lens makers formula
1/f = (n - 1)(1/18 + 1/18) = (n-1)/9
f = 9/(n-1)
Power, P = 1/f ( in m) = (n-1)/0.09
Now, this lens is in with conjunction with a concave mirror which then can be thought of as to be in conjunction with another thin lens
Power of concave mirror = P' = 1/f ( in m) = 2/R = 2/0.18 = 1/0.09
Net power of the combination = 2P + P' = 2(n-1)/0.09 + 1/0.09 = 1/0.05
n = 1.4
