6. A 145-g baseball moving 30.5 m/s strikes a stationary 5.75-kg brick resting on small rollers so it moves without significant

friction. After hitting the brick, the baseball bounces straight back, and the brick moves forward at 1.10 m/s. a. What is the baseball’s speed after the collision? (10pts) b. Find the total kinetic energy before the collision. (10pts) c. Find the total kinetic energy after the collision. (10pts)

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

momentum of baseball before collision

mass x velocity

= .145 x 30.5

= 4.4225 kg m /s

momentum of brick after collision

= 5.75 x 1.1

= 6.325 kg m/s

Applying conservation of momentum

4.4225 + 0 = .145 x v + 6.325 , v is velocity of baseball after collision.

v = - 13.12 m / s

b )

kinetic energy of baseball  before collision = 1/2 mv²

= .5 x .145 x 30.5²

= 67.44 J

Total kinetic energy before collision = 67.44 J

c )

kinetic energy of baseball after collision = 1/2 x .145 x 13.12²

= 12.48 J .

 kinetic energy of brick after collision

= .5 x 5.75 x 1.1²

= 3.48 J

Total kinetic energy after collision

= 15.96 J

Why is Vy negative and not positive because I solved it and it resulted in a positive number?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Explanation:

You are given the initial velocity, the displacement, and the acceleration.  You're looking for the final velocity.  So you use the equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

When you solve for v, you take the square root.  Your calculator will return a positive answer, but there are actually two possible answers: positive and negative.

v = ±√(v₀² + 2aΔy)

You must use the physical context of the problem.  If we take up to be the positive direction, then v must be negative, since the projectile is moving down.

If you double the voltage in a circuit and reduce the resistance by a factor of four what will happen to the current? A) it will
KatRina [158]
By Ohm's Law, we can relate current, voltage and resistance. It is expressed as V=IR. That is, there is a direct relationship between voltage and resistance and voltage and current.

V = IR
V1/2V1 = I1R1 / I2R1/4
1/2 = 4I1/I2
I2 = 8I1

Therefore, <span> it will increase by a factor of 8. Hope this answers the question.</span>

A proton travels at right angles through a magnetic field of 0.025 Tesla's. If the magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Velocity of proton will be equal to 4500 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given that proton moves right angles through a magnetic field

So angle between magnetic field and velocity of proton is \Theta =90^{\circ}

Magnetic field B = 0.025 Tesla

Charge on proton e=1.6\times 10^{-16}C

Magnetic force on the proton is given F=1.8\times 10^{-14}N

Magnetic force on a moving charge particle is equal to F=qvBsin\Theta

So 1.8\times 10^{-14}=1.6\times 10^{-16}\times v\times 0.025\times sin90^{\circ}

v = 4500 m/sec

So velocity of proton will be equal to 4500 m/sec
