Answer:
the total kinetic and potential energy of the ball is constant (mechanical energy remains the same)
Explanation:
As the ball falls, kinetic energy is increased in direct relation with the decrease in potential energy
ΔKE + ΔPE = 0
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply conservation of momentum law in vector form to solve the problem .
Initial momentum = 0
momentum of 12 g piece
= .012 x 37 i since it moves along x axis .
= .444 i
momentum of 22 g
= .022 x 34 j
= .748 j
Let momentum of third piece = p
total momentum
= p + .444 i + .748 j
so
applying conservation law of momentum
p + .444 i + .748 j = 0
p = - .444 i - .748 j
magnitude of p
= √ ( .444² + .748² )
= .87 kg m /s
mass of third piece = 58 - ( 12 + 22 )
= 24 g = .024 kg
if v be its velocity
.024 v = .87
v = 36.25 m / s .
Answer:


Explanation:
= Initial momentum of the pin = 13 kg m/s
= Initial momentum of the ball = 18 kg m/s
= Momentum of the ball after hit
= Angle ball makes with the horizontal after hitting the pin
= Angle the pin makes with the horizotal after getting hit by the ball
Momentum in the x direction

Momentum in the y direction


The pin's resultant velocity is 

The pin's resultant direction is
below the horizontal or to the right.
