s true?
The magnitude of the change of the momentum of the 5-kg ball is equal to the magnitude of the change of momentum of the 10-kg ball.

Answer:

The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball.

Explanation:

In inelastic collision, the total momentum is always conserved after collision but the kinetic energy is reduced.

Momentum is Mass X velocity.

5 kg ball is in motion, while 10 kg ball is stationary; that is zero velocity.

The momentum of 10 kg ball before collision is zero while the momentum of 5 kg ball before collision is more than zero. Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum will not be equal.

Next possible options are in kinetic Energy

Initial Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mu^2

Final kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Change in kinetic energy = Final Kinetic Energy - Initial Kinetic Energy

Change in kinetic energy of 5kg ball = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2

Since the 5-kg ball has initial velocity (u), the magnitude of the change in velocity will be reduced.

Change in kinetic energy of 10kg ball:

the ball is initially at rest, therefore the initial velocity (u) will be zero (0)

Δ K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-0)^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

From the solution above, the magnitude of the change in velocity experienced by 10 kg ball is higher than 5 kg ball.

Hence, The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball

If you know all of the forces acting on a moving object, can you tell in which direction the object is moving? if the answer is
Montano1993 [528]

No, knowing all the forces is not enough to know the direction of motion.

<h3>How to use Newton's laws?</h3>

The second Newton's law states that:

F = m*a

This says <u><em>"force equals mass times acceleration".</em></u>

Where acceleration is the rate of change of the speed. From that equation, we conclude that the acceleration is in the same direction that the net force.

So, if we know all the forces acting on an object, we know the net force acting on it, then we know the direction of the acceleration.

<h3>Is this enough to know the direction in which it is moving?</h3>

No, the object does not need to move in the same direction than its acceleration, the direction of motion will also depend on the initial velocity of the object (if it is initially moving with constant speed).

If we don't know that, we can't find the direction of motion.

An example of this can be a car going at 100km/h east-wise.

Then we apply a net force due west, then we have an acceleration due west. But as the initial direction of motion was east, the car will still move to the east, but the velocity will decrease gradually.

So as you can see in that example, we need to know the initial velocity to know the direction in which the object is moving.

Why is Radiology important in the medical field?
juin [17]

Answer:

Radiology plays a huge role in disease management by giving physicians more options, tools, and techniques for detection and treatment. Diagnostic imaging allows for detailed information about structural or disease-related changes. With the ability to diagnose during the early stages, patients may be saved.

Lena [83]

Answer: 316.8V

Explanation:

given data:

metre moving current = 0.96mA

meters voltage = 288V

or  0.96*300V = 288V

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

<u><em /></u>v1 = (0.96mA*150)<u><em /></u>

<u><em /></u>= 144V<u><em /></u>

<u><em /></u>

i1 = \frac{144v}{750}

= 0.192mA

i2 = imovement + i1

i2= 0.96mA+0.192mA

= 1.152mA

Vmeasured = 144V+(150)(1.152mA)

=316.8V

the unknown voltage is 316.8V
