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

Consider the following mass distribution where the x- and y-coordinates are given in meters: 5.0 kg at (0.0, 0.0) m, 2.9 kg at (
Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = -1.20 m

y = -1.12 m

Explanation:

as we know that four masses and their position is given as

5.0 kg (0, 0)

2.9 kg (0, 3.2)

4 kg (2.5, 0)

8.3 kg (x, y)

As we know that the formula of center of gravity is given as

x_{cm} = \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2x_2 + m_3x_3 + m_4x_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(0) + 4(2.5) + 8.3 x}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

10 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.20 m

Similarly for y direction we have

y_{cm} = \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2y_2 + m_3y_3 + m_4y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(3.2) + 4(0) + 8.3 y}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

9.28 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.12 m

What is the quantity of motion ??
horsena [70]

Answer:

The quantity of motion is the measure of the same, arise from the velocity and quantity of matter conjointly. In other words, rather than defining the quantity of motion of a given object as simply the kinematic velocity v of the object, he defined it as the product mv, where m is the mass of the object.

What is an electrical charge how does it create electrical current
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Explanation:

The moving charged particles in an electric current are called charge carriers. In metals, one or more electrons from each atom are loosely bound to the atom, and can move freely about within the metal. These conduction electrons are the charge carriers in metal conductors.

The flow of electrons in a direction is known as electric current. The tendency of attraction between the positive and negative charges makes electric current flow through a wire
