The idea that our bodies help our minds think is called Embodied Cognition.
3. The sum of the players' momenta is equal to the momentum of the players when they're stuck together:
(75 kg) (6 m/s) + (80 kg) (-4 m/s) = (75 kg + 80 kg) v
where v is the velocity of the combined players. Solve for v :
450 kg•m/s - 320 kg•m/s = (155 kg) v
v = (130 kg•m/s) / (155 kg)
v ≈ 0.84 m/s
4. The total momentum of the bowling balls prior to collision is conserved and is the same after their collision, so that
(6 kg) (5.1 m/s) + (4 kg) (-1.3 m/s) = (6 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (4 kg) v
where v is the new velocity of the 4-kg ball. Solve for v :
30.6 kg•m/s - 5.2 kg•m/s = 9 kg•m/s + (4 kg) v
v = (16.4 kg•m/s) / (4 kg)
v = 4.1 m/s
Centripetal acceleration is directed along a radius so it may also be called the radial acceleration. If the speed is not constant, then there is also a tangential acceleration (at). The tangential acceleration is, indeed, tangent to the path of the particle's motion.
One day, as I was walking, I found some sandy soil beside the road.
