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

A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is transformed int
Stells [14]

Answer:

A. The hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.

B. Average force on the hand = 1025 N

Explanation:

A.To determine the speed the hand must move with to break the board, the force workdone in breaking the board is found first.

Workdone = force × distance

Minimum force required = 870 N;

Distance moved by board/Deflection in order to break = 1.4 cm = 0.014 M

Workd done = 870 N × 0.014 m = 12.18 Nm or 12.18 J

This work done = Kinetic energy of the hand

Kinetic energy = mv²/2 ; where m is mass and v is velocity

Mass of hand = 0.50 Kg, velocity = ?, K.E. = 12.18 J

v² = 2 KE/m

v = √2KE/m

v = √(2 × 12.18/0.50)

v = 6.98 m/s

Therefore, the hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.

B. Average force on the hand

This can be determined using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as to find acceleration, since force = mass × acceleration

From the equation of motion, a = v² - u²/2s

At rest, v = 0, u = 6.98, s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

a = 0² - 6.98²/ 2 × 0.012

a = -2030 m/s²

Force = 2030 m/s² × 0. 50 kg = 1015 N

Therefore, Average force on the hand = 1025 N

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 3.33 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
Troyanec [42]

Answer: 6.47m/s

Explanation:

The tangential speed can be defined in terms of linear speed. The linear speed is the distance traveled with respect to time taken. The tangential speed is basically, the linear speed across a circular path.

The time taken for 1 revolution is, 1/3.33 = 0.30s

velocity of the wheel = d/t

Since d is not given, we find d by using formula for the circumference of a circle. 2πr. Thus, V = 2πr/t

V = 2π * 0.309 / 0.3

V = 1.94/0.3

V = 6.47m/s

The tangential speed of the tack is 6.47m/s

Magnesium is a shiny, flexible metal that can be burned in the presence of air.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

A new substance was formed

Explanation:

According to this question, a shiny and flexible metal called Magnesium (Mg) is burnt in air to produce a white powder that has no shiny or flexible properties, however, has more weight than the magnesium metal itself.

This is possible because a CHEMICAL CHANGE has occured, hence, a new substance has been formed. The formation of a new substance during the burning process (chemical reaction), induced the increase in mass.

Two teams of nine members each engage in a tug of war. Each of the first team’s members has an average mass of 68 kg and exerts
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a)  a = - 0.106 m/s^2  (←)

b) T = 12215.1064 N

Explanation:

If

F₁ = 9*1350 N = 12150 N   (→)

F₂ = 9*1365 N = 12285 N  (←)

∑Fx = M*a = (M₁  +M₂)*a           (→)

F₁ - F₂ = (M₁  +M₂)*a        

→       a = (F₁ - F₂) / (M₁  +M₂ ) = (12150-12285)N/(9*68+9*73)Kg

→       a = - 0.106 m/s^2            (←)

(b) What is the tension in the section of rope between the teams?

If we apply  ∑Fx = M*a   for the team 1

F₁ - T = - M₁*a  ⇒   T = F₁ + M₁*a  

⇒   T = 12150 N + (9 * 68 Kg)*(0.106 m/s^2)

⇒ T = 12215.1064 N

If we choose the team 2 we get

- F₂ + T = - M₂*a  ⇒   T = F₂ - M₂*a  

⇒   T = 12285 N - (9 * 73 Kg)*(0.106 m/s^2)

⇒ T = 12215.1064 N
