Billy goes ice skating with his friend Sally. While they are both standing on the ice before skating Billy pushes Sally. What is

Billy's (m = 55 kg) velocity after he pushes Sally if Sally has a mass of 45 kg and moves off at 2.5 m/s?

Answer:

The velocity of Billy is, V = - 2.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of Sally, m = 45 kg

The mass of Billy, M = 55 kg

Sally's velocity, v = 2.5 m/s

Billy's velocity, V = ?

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

                             mv + MV = 0

                             V = - (mv/M)

                              V = - (45 x 2.5 / 55)

                                  = - 2.05 m/s

Hence, the velocity of Billy is, V = - 2.05 m/s

Balance the equation: ___ SiO2 + ___ HF  ___ SiF4 + ___ H2O
olga_2 [115]
Let's start from the Fluorine (F), which has 4 atoms on the right side: this means we must put a factor 4 in front of HF to balance the number of atoms of Fluorine. 
Nowe we have 4 atoms of hydrogen, H, on the left side. Since we have a H_2 on the right side (2 atoms), we must put a factor 2 in front of H_2 O, to balance the number of atoms of hydrogen.
So now the atoms of oxygen are also balanced (2 on both sides), as well as the atoms of Silicon (Si), so the balanced reaction is

Si O_2 + 4 HF \rightarrow SiF_4 + 2 H_2 O

What local constellation signifies the start of rainy season in the Philippines?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Buwaya

Explanation:

Constellations are the patterns imagined by joining stars together. Ancient people used to imagine these patterns and further related the appearance of constellations with natural phenomenon. Similarly constellations can also be related with a particular season depending upon the visibility. For example, Orion signifies the start of the winters in Northern hemisphere.

The rainy season in Philippines starts in the month of June the same time  when Buwaya (local name given to the box in Pegasus constellation) starts being seen in the sky after a brief period of disappearance from the sky.

In an arcade game a 0.135 kg disk is shot across a frictionless horizontal surface by compressing it against a spring and releas
ioda

Answer:

v=2.42m/s

Explanation:

We use the energy conservation theorem in order to solve the problem. The energy when the spring is compressed is equal at the energy when the disk leaves the spring:

E_{initial}=E{final}\\E_{k-initial}+E_{p-initial}=E_{k-final}+E_{p-final}\\0+\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+0

At the beginning the initial energy is totally potential, energy linked to the compressed spring. At the end the energy is totally kinetics

We solve the equation in order to find the speed.

k=162 N/m

x=7 cm=0.07m

m=0.135 kg

v=x*\sqrt{k/m}=0.07*\sqrt{162/0.135}=2.42m/s

Two uniformly charged conducting plates are parallel to each other. They each have area A. Plate #1 has a positive charge Q whil
Marrrta [24]

Answer:5

Explanation:

Given

First Plate has a charge of +Q  and area A

Second Plate has a charge of -3 Q and area A

We Know electric Field due to sheet charge is given by

E=\frac{Q}{2A\epsilon }

Where Q=charge over the Plate

A=Area of plate

\epsilon= Permittivity of free space

Electric Field Due to Positive charge will always be away from it while for negative charge it is towards it.

Net Electric Field at a point between between the Plates is the superimposition of two electric with direction

E_{net}=\frac{Q}{2A\epsilon }+\frac{3Q}{2A\epsilon }

E_{net}=\frac{2Q}{A\epsilon }

Net electric Field is towards the negative charged plate
