Identify the conditions for an elastic collision in a closed system. Check all that apply.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

In an elastic collision:

  • There is no external net force acting. Thus, Momentum before and after collision is equal. Momentum remains conserved.
  • Total energy always remains conserved as energy cannot be created nor destroyed. It can change from one form to another.
  • There is no lost due to friction in elastic collision. So the kinetic energy is also conserved.
  • Velocities may change after collision. If the masses are equal, the velocities interchange.

When one object is stationary:

Final velocity of object 1:

v₁ = (m₁ - m₂)u₁/(m₁ +m₂)

Final velocity of object 2:

v₂ = (2 m₁ u₁)/(m₁+m₂) =

  • Objects do not stick together in elastic collision. They stick together in inelastic collision.
  • One object may be stationary before the elastic collision.

Thus, conditions for an elastic collision:

  • Energy is conserved.
  • Velocities may change.
  • Momentum is conserved.
  • Kinetic energy is conserved.
  • One object may be stationary before the elastic collision.

Use a(t) = -32 feet per second per second as the acceleration due to gravity. (Neglect air resistance.) -With what initial veloc
Kitty [74]

Answer:

u= 187.61 ft/s

Explanation:

Given that

g= - 32 ft/s²

The maximum height ,h= 550 ft

Lets take the initial velocity = u ft/s

We know that

v²=u² + 2 g s

v=final speed ,u=initial speed ,s=height

When the object reach at the maximum height then the final speed of the object will become zero.

That is why

u²= 2 x 32 x 550

u²= 35200

u= 187.61 ft/s

That is why the initial speed will be 187.61 ft/s

jonny [76]

Answer:

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

Explanation:

This is due to what we called Reverberation due to poor acoustic properties.

Reverberation can be reduced by;

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.
