Answer:
15.4 kg.
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of momentum,
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1
Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.
Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)
Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s
Substitute into equation 1
7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')
7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')
7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')
23.1 = 7.7+m'
m' = 23.1-7.7
m' = 15.4 kg.
Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
Answer:They will go off in opposite directions with the same force.
Explanation:
Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction. If two people are standing on a scooter and push off each other (following the Law), it should come to the conclusion that they could go off in opposite with the same force.
Huh huh what? ¿Can’t you translate?
Speed = distance / time
If you input your numbers into this equation you will be able to find the cyclists average speed
