Since velocity describes both speed and direction you can call it

1 answer:

4 0

Since velocity describes both speed and direction, you can call it a "vector" quantity, and legitimately label it "velocity".

Since speed has no direction, it's a scalar quantity, and it's wrong to call it "velocity" as so many often do.

The value of the surface area of the cylinder is equal to the value of the volume of the cylinder. Find the value of x.

max2010maxim [7]

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula v=pi r^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.

<h3>What Does a Cylinder's Surface Area Look Like?</h3>

The overall area or region that the surface of a cylinder covers is referred to as its surface area. A cylinder's total surface area includes both the area of the curved surface and the area of the two flat surfaces because there are two flat surfaces and one curved surface. A cylinder's surface area is measured in square units like m2, in2, cm2, yd2, etc.

<h3>What is the cylinder's total surface area?</h3>

The sum of the curved surface areas makes up the cylinder's overall surface area.

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now here we can say

$m_1 = 10 g$

$v_{1i} = 0$

$m_2 = 550 g$

$v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s$

now here we can say

$10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}$

$192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}$

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})$

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5$

now by solving the two equation

$56v_{2f} = 189$

$v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s$

also we know that

$v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s$

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s
