What does elastic collision mean?

Physics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago
7 0
An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after the encounter is equal to their total kinetic energy before the encounter. Elastic collisions occur only if there is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms (such as heat or noise).

goblinko [34]

Answer:

v = 2.974

Explanation:

Perhaps the formula should be

v = √(2*g*d (sin(θ) - uk*cos(θ) )                    This is a bit easier to read.

v = √(2* 9.80*0.725(0.707 - 0.12*0.707) )   Substitute values. Find 2*g*d

v = √14.21 * (0.707 - 0.0849)                        Figure out Sin(θ) - uk cos(θ)  

v = √14.21 * (0.6222)

v = √8.8422                                                  Take the square root of the value

v = 2.974

Earth attracts a person with a gravitational force of 7.0 × 102 newtons. What is the magnitude of the force with which the indiv
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
This is a good time to review Newton's 3rd law of motion:
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Gravitational force always acts in pairs.
Whatever force the Earth attracts something with,
the thing attracts the Earth with exactly the same force.

If Earth attracts a person with a gravitational force of <span><span>7.0 × 10² </span>newtons,
the person attracts Earth with a gravitational force of 7.0 × 10² newtons.

Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you !

A grandfather clock is "losing" time because its pendulum moves too slowly. Assume that the pendulum is a massive bob at the end
IgorC [24]

Answer:

d) shortening the string

Explanation:

Time period of a pendulum clock is dependent on two factors namely:length and acceleration due to gravity.

When a clock loses time, the time period of the pendulum clock increases.

This however can be corrected by decreasing the length of the pendulum.The time period of the pendulum clock is not dependent on the mass of the bob. The time period of the pendulum clock can be corrected only by changing the length of the pendulum string.
