The answer is D.)
In inelastic collision, when two objects collide, they stick together. Looking at the answer, it shows the before the collision, each object will have their own velocity but after the collision, they will have the same velocity. That's why the masses are added and only one velocity is multiplied.
The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by
is given by
where m is the mass of the substance, Cs is its specific heat capacity and
is the increase of temperature.
If we re-arrange the formula, we get
And if we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we can find the specific heat capacity of the substance:
Answer:
Explanation:
Using Hooke's law,
F = -kx
Where,
F = force of the mass
k = spring constant/stiffness
x = length of the spring
Given:
F1 = m1*a
= 4.1 * 9.81
= 40.221 N
F2 = m2*a
= 1.5 * 9.81
= 14.715 N
x1 = 2.9 cm
F1/x1 = F2/x2
Therefore,
x2 = (14.715 * 2.9)/40.221
= 1.06 cm.
