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).

Can you make the work output of a machine greater than the work input?
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

It is<em> impossible</em> to construct a machine which produces the <em>work output greater than the work input.</em>

Let us consider the II law of thermodynamics.

According to Kelvin Plank's statement any engine/machine does not give hundred percent efficiency. And violating the PMM-II(Perpetual motion of machine II kind), Always some amount of energy transferred  to the sink or surroundings.

Therefore

                     W(ouput) = Q₁-Q₂

There are many reasons to lower the work output, just for an example friction between the mating parts reduces the work output.

Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Under what circumstances does distance traveled equal magnitude of displacement?

When a body's motion is linear in one direction. Or a body moving in a straight line without turning back.

What is the only case in which magnitude of displacement and distance are exactly the same?

When the body is moving in a straight line with without changing direction or without turning back.

nika2105 [10]

The answer is C. that liquids and gases both take the shape of their container.  

Think of it this way, if you take an ice cube and put it in your glass, it will stay in its shape and stay that way until it melts.  But if you put liquid or a gas into a glass, it will take the shape of the glass that it is put into.

Answer:

460 g

Explanation:

Heat lost by the warm water = heat gained by the cold water

-mCΔT = mCΔT

-m (4.184 J/g/K) (37°C − 85°C) = (1000 g) (4.184 J/g/K) (37°C − 15°C)

-m (37°C − 85°C) = (1000 g) (37°C − 15°C)

-m (-48°C) = (1000 g) (22°C)

m = 458 g

Rounded to two significant figures, you need a mass of 460 g of water.
