Newton's cradle consists of an aligned row of identical elastic balls suspended by strings so they barely touch one another. whe

n two balls are raised from one end and released, they strike the row and two balls pop out from the other end. if instead, one ball popped out with twice the speed of the two, this would violate

Initial momentum = 2 * m v

so if 1 ball popped out with 2 v momentum would be conserved

but the initial kinetic energy of the two balls is

1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 m v^2 = m v^2

But the kinetic energy of one ball with twice the speed would be

KE = 1/2 m (2 v)^2 = 2 m v^2 thus violating conservation of energy

An airplane takes off a runway at a constant speed of 49m/s at constant angle 30 to the horizontal
joja [24]

Complete Question

An airplane takes off a runway at a constant speed of 49 m/s at constant angle 30 to the horizontal.How high (in meters )  is the airplane above the ground 13 seconds after takeoff?

Answer:

The height  is H  =  318.5 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed at which the plane takes off is  u = 49 \ m/s

      The angle at which it takes off is  \theta  =  30 ^o

        The time taken is t =  13  s

The vertical distance traveled is  mathematically represented as

          H  =  u sin  \theta  t

Substituting values  

         H  =  (49) * sin (30) *13

        H  =  318.5 \ m

A 1000-kilogram car traveling with a velocity of 20. meters per second decelerates uniformly at -5.0 meters per second2 until it
Elis [28]

Answer:

-20000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its change in velocity. The S.I unit of impulse is kgm/s.

Mathematically, impulse can be expressed as

I = m(v-u).............. Equation 1.

Where I = impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest, m = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, v = final velocity of the car.

Given: m = 1000 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s ( to rest)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 100(0-20)

I = 1000(-20)

I = -20000 kgm/s

Hence the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest = -20000 kgm/s

Describe the relationship between the Law of Conservation of Matter and balancing equations.
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The mass of the products and reactants are the same on both sides of the equation.

The number of atoms of products and reactants are equal and hence it proves the law of conservation of mass.

A college student holds a pail full of water by the handle and whirls it around in a vertical circle at a constant speed. The ra
Pavlova-9 [17]

The minimum speed of the water must be 3.4 m/s

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the water in the pail when it is at the top of its circular motion:

  • The force of gravity, mg, acting downward (where m is the mass of the water and g the acceleration of gravity)
  • The normal reaction, N also acting downward

Since the water is in circular motion, the net force must be equal to the centripetal force, so:

N+mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Where:

g=9.8 m/s^2

v is the speed of the pail

r = 1.2 m is the radius of the circle

The water starts to spill out when the normal reaction of the pail becomes zero:

N = 0

When this occurs, the equation becomes:

mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}\\v=\sqrt{gr}

And substitutin the values of g and r, we find the minimum speed that the water must have in order not to spill out:

v=\sqrt{(9.8)(1.2)}=3.4 m/s

Define linear expansivity
lidiya [134]

Linear expansivity is a type of thermal expansion. It is described by a fraction that represents the fractional increase in length of a thin beam of a material exposed to a temperature increase of one degree Celsius. ... Linear expansivity is used in many real world applications.
