A ball of mass M collides with a stick with moment of inertia I = βml2 (relative to its center, which is its center of mass). Th

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Part a)

$v_2 = \frac{\frac{2\beta mL^2v_o}{d}}{(md + \frac{\beta mL^2}{d}(1 + \frac{m}{M})}$

Part b)

$v_1 = v_0 - \frac{m}{M}(\frac{\frac{2\beta mL^2v_o}{d}}{(md + \frac{\beta mL^2}{d}(1 + \frac{m}{M})})$

Explanation:

Since the ball and rod is an isolated system and there is no external force on it so by momentum conservation we will have

$Mv_o = M v_1 + m v_2$

here we also use angular momentum conservation

so we have

$M v_o d = M v_1 d + \beta mL^2 \omega$

also we know that the collision is elastic collision so we have

$v_o = (v_2 + d\omega) - v_1$

so we have

$\omega = \frac{v_o + v_1 - v_2}{d}$

also we know

$M v_o d - M v_1 d = \beta mL^2(\frac{v_o + v_1 - v_2}{d})$

also we know

$v_1 = v_o - \frac{m}{M}v_2$

so we have

$M v_o d - M(v_o - \frac{m}{M}v_2)d = \beta mL^2(\frac{v_o + v_o - \frac{m}{M}v_2 - v_2}{d})$

$mv_2 d = \beta mL^2\frac{2v_o}{d} - \beta mL^2(1 + \frac{m}{M})\frac{v_2}{d}$

now we have

$(md + \frac{\beta mL^2}{d}(1 + \frac{m}{M})v_2 = \frac{2\beta mL^2v_o}{d}$

$v_2 = \frac{\frac{2\beta mL^2v_o}{d}}{(md + \frac{\beta mL^2}{d}(1 + \frac{m}{M})}$

Part b)

Now we know that speed of the ball after collision is given as

$v_1 = v_o - \frac{m}{M}v_2$

so it is given as

$v_1 = v_0 - \frac{m}{M}(\frac{\frac{2\beta mL^2v_o}{d}}{(md + \frac{\beta mL^2}{d}(1 + \frac{m}{M})})$

Why is it important to use placebos and a double-blind approach in some studies

viktelen [127]

Another name for these two words is "constant" and you want to have a "constant", because you want something to compare your experimental group to, to see whether data had changed or not. So you have placebos or a double- blind to compare your experimental group to it and also so you know you don't have a bias or anything in the study.

A rocket takes off from Earth and starts flying to Mars. What happens to the force of gravity between the rocket and Earth as th

lawyer [7]

The force of gravity between Earth and Mars will decrease.

The gravitational law is given as-

F = G mM/r²

here, m= mass of rocket

M = mass of earth

r = distance between earth and rocket

So, as rocket takes off from earth and fly towards mars then the distance starts to increase between earth and rocket, and the gravitational pull between them starts to weaken. Then a point will reach when rocket will far from gravity of earth and could probably enter the gravity of Mars.
