<u>Answer</u>

= 16 m/s


<u>Explanation</u>

The law conservation of energy states that, momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

momentum before collision = (0.40 × v) + (0.40 × 0)

= 0.4v Km/s

momentum after collision = (0.40+0.40) × 8.0

= 0.8 ×8.0

= 6.4 Km/s

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

0.4v Km/s = 6.4 Km/s

v = 6.4/0.4

= 16 m/s

This problem can be solved through the Inelastic Collision Formula:
mass1 x in.velocity1 + mass2 x in.velocity2 = mass1+mass2 (final velocity)

Substituting the values, we have:
0.40 kg x in.velocity1 + 0.40 kg x 0 m/s = 0.80 kg (8.0m/s)

Solving for the unknown initial velocity of the moving hockey puck we have:
in.velocity1 = (6.4 kgm/s - 0) / 0.40 kg
= 16 m/s

Arisa [49]

Answer:

<h2>work done= 48.96 kJ</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

mass of  load m= 425 kg

height/distance h=64 m

acceleration a= 1.8 m/s^2

The work done can be calculated using the expression

work done= force* distance

but force= mass *acceleration

hence work done= 425*1.8*64= 48,960 J

work done= 48.96 kJ

lidiya [134]

The resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms)

Explanation:

In the United States Of America the standard voltage is 120 v and their frequency is 60 Hz

Standard wall outlet voltage is 120 V

The current in the lamp is 0.5 ampere

Resistance (R) = V/ I

      = 120/0.5

      = 240Ω (ohms)

Thus the resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms).
