A 15.0 kg fish swimming at 1.10 m/s suddenly gobbles up a 4.50 kg fish that is initially stationary. Ignore any drag effects of
Nana76 [90]

Answer

given.

Mass of big fish = 15 Kg

speed of big fish = 1.10 m/s

mass of the small fish = 4.50 Kg

speed of the fish after eating small fish =?

a) using conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂) V

15 x 1.10 + 4.50 x 0 = (15 + 4.5)V

16.5 = 19.5 V

V = 0.846 m/s

b) Kinetic energy before collision

KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2

KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 15 \times 1.1^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m_2\times 0^2

KE₁ = 9.075 J

Kinetic energy after collision

KE_2= \dfrac{1}{2}(15+4.5)\times 0.846^2

KE₂ = 6.98 J

Change in KE = 6.98 - 9.075 = -2.096 J

hence,

mechanical energy was dissipated during this meal = -2.096 J

Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth’s center. Satellite A is to o
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Orbital radius of satellite A , Ra = 6370 + 6370 = 12740 km

Orbital radius of satellite B , Rb = 6370 + 19110 = 25480 km

Orbital potential energy of a satellite = - GMm / r where G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the earth and m is mass of the satellite

Orbital potential energy of a satellite A = - GMm / Ra

Orbital potential energy of a satellite B = - GMm / Rb

PE of satellite B /PE of satellite A

=  Ra / Rb

= 12740 / 25480

= 1 / 2

b ) Kinetic energy of a satellite is half the potential energy with positive value , so ratio of their kinetic energy will also be same

KE of satellite B /KE of satellite A

= 1 / 2

c ) Total energy will be as follows

Total energy = - PE + KE

- P E + PE/2

= - PE /2

Total energy of satellite B / Total energy of A

= 1 / 2

Satellite B will have greater total energy because its negative value is less.

A manufacturer claims that a carpet will not generate more than 5.8 kV of static electricity What magnitude of charge would have
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb

Explanation:

V = Voltage = 5.8 kV

d = Potential distance = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

A = Area = 0.3×0.08 = 0.024 m²

ε₀ = permittivity constant in a Vacuum= 8.85×10⁻¹² F/m

\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow \Q=V\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=5.8\times 10^3\frac{0.024\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.0028}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.4\times 10^{-7}\ C

Magnitude of charge transferred between a carpet and a shoe is 4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb.
