Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before the collision, puck 1 is going 13 m/s to the east and

puck 2 is going 18 m/s to the west. After the collision, puck 1 is going 18 m/s to the west. What is the velocity of puck 2?

Answer:

13 m/s east

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision:

p_i = p_f \\m u_1 + m u_2 = m v_1 + m v_2

where

m = 0.1 kg is the mass of each puck

u1 = +13 m/s is the initial velocity of puck 1

u2 = -18 m/s is the initial velocity of puck 2 (here I assume the west direction to be the negative direction, so I put a negative sign)

v1 = -18 m/s is the final velocity of puck 1

v2 = ? is the final velocity of puck 2

Simplifying m from the formula and substituting the data, we can find the final velocity of puck 2, v2:

v_2 = u_1 + u_2 - v_1 = +13 m/s + (-18 m/s) - (-18 m/s) = +13 m/s

And the positive sign means that puck 2 is moving east.

According to the law of conservation of momentum,
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
0.1 x 13 + 0.1 x 18 = 0.1 x 18 + 0.1 x v2
v2 = 13 m/s
the velocity of puck 2 is 13 m/s

The kitchen in your house measures 10 ft by 10 ft. You need to have 50 footcandles of illumination in the room. How many 60 watt
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u>6 bulbs</u> are needed to illuminate the room.

Explanation:

Given:

Measurement of kitchen (A) = 10 ft by 10 ft = 100 sq. ft

Number of footcandles (n) = 50

Lumens emitted by 1 bulb = 834

Number of bulbs (N) = ?

We are also given,

1 foot candle = 1 lumen/sq. ft

So, 50 foot candles = 50 lumens/sq. ft

Now, for an area of 1 sq. ft 50 lumens are emitted.

So, for an area of 100 sq. ft, lumens emitted = 50 × 100 = 5000 lumens

Now, one bulb emits = 834 lumes

Therefore, number of bulbs required for emitting 5000 lumens is given as:

N=\frac{Number\ of\ lumens}{Number\ of\ lumens\ by\ 1\ bulb}\\\\N=\frac{5000}{834}=5.995\approx6

So, 6 bulbs are needed to illuminate the room.

You are watching a wave with a frequency of 512 Hz go past. How many peaks of the wave go past you each minute?
inna [77]

Answer:

61440 peaks

Explanation:

A hertz represents one cycle for every second:

f= Hz=\frac{1}{s}

So if a wave have frequency of 2Hz for example, this means the wave does two cycles per second.

Normally the waves are represented by cosine or sine waves. These kind of waves have two peaks in each cycle, one positive and one negative. With this in mind, let's calculate how many peaks of the wave pass each minute.

A minute has 60 seconds, hence:

60*512=30720\hspace{3}cycles\hspace{3}per\hspace{3}minute

And we know already that every cycle has two peaks, so:

30720*2=61440\hspace{3}peaks\hspace{3}per\hspace{3}minute
