How is momentum conserved is a Newton's cradle when one steel ball hits the other

Physics
1 answer:
Vikentia [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Newton's Cradle experiment perfectly demonstrates the law of conservation of momentum which states that in a closed system, momentum before the collision is equal to momentum after the collision of the system.

As the first ball swings in the air, it gains momentum. When it strikes the second ball, it loses momentum and second ball gains equal amount of momentum. The second ball transfers the momentum to third, then fourth and till the last. The last ball when gains the same momentum swings up in the air. This continues. This experiment is done in drag free condition. This means there is no loss of momentum or opposing forces present.

What is the velocity (in m/s) of a 550 kg roller coaster cart at the bottom of the track if it started with 990,000 J of gravita
sesenic [268]

Answer:

60m/s

Explanation:

initial energy = final energy

g.p.e = k.e

k.e = 0.5 × mass × velocity²

g.p.e = 990000J as per Question

990000Nm = 0.5 × 550 × V²

V² = 3600

V = 60m/s

This equation is known as the ideal gas law, and it can be used to predict the behavior of many gases at relatively low pressure
Masja [62]
The correct answer is 
<span>C) either the pressure of the gas, the volume of the gas, or both, will increase.

In fact, the ideal gas law can be written as
</span>pV=nRT
<span>where 
p is the gas pressure
V is its volume
n is the number of moles
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas

We can see that if the temperature T increases, then the term on the right in the equation increases, therefore the term on the left should increase as well. In order for this to be possible, at least one between p and V should increase, or also both of them. Therefore, the correct answer is C.</span>

Heat gained minus work fine is equal to what?
Zina [86]

Heat transferred - Work done = Internal Energy

Explanation:

  • If there is more heat transfer than the work done, the energy difference is called internal energy
  • The first law of thermodynamics equation is given as ΔU=Q−W where, ΔU = Internal energy; Q = Heat transfer; W = Work done
  • Heat = transfer of thermal energy between two bodies at different temperatures
  • Work = force used to transfer energy between a system and its surroundings
  • The First Law of Thermodynamics states - energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat, work and internal energy
  • Energy cannot be created nor destroyed
