The relative kinetic energy loss through a process is defined as ΔΚ Δκ. к, relatine a. Rewrite part (a) in terms of the mass rat

io (m, mincoming/mstationary) due to a completely inelastic collision where the second objects is at rest? b. If I want a system that loses 25% of the kinetic energy after a completely inelastic collision, what should the mass ratio be? c. If I want a system that loses 75% of the kinetic energy after a completely inelastic collision, what should the mass ratio be?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let mass m₁ is colliding in-elastically with stationary mass m₂ with velocity v₁ . Let v₂ be their conjugate velocity after collision .

Initial KE =1/2 m₁ v₁²

Final KE = 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v₂²

from conservation of momentum

v₂ = m₁v₁ / ( m₁ + m₂)

Final KE = 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) m₁²v₁² / ( m₁ + m₂ )²

= 1/2  m₁²v₁² / ( m₁ + m₂ )

Loss of KE = ΔK

= 1/2 m₁ v₁² -  1/2  m₁²v₁² / ( m₁ + m₂ )

= 1/2 m₁ v₁² ( 1 - m₁ / m₁ + m₂ )

= 1/2 m₁ v₁²  m₂ / (m₁ + m₂ )

ΔK / K= m₂ / (m₁ + m₂ )

= β / (1 + β)

where β = m₂ / m₁

b )

If ΔK / K = .25

.25  =  β / (1 + β)

β = 1/3

c )

If

ΔK / K = .75

.75  =  β / (1 + β)

β  = 3

A wire is used as a heating element that has a resistance that is fairly independent of its temperature within its operating ran
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Double the current

Explanation:

The energy delivered by the heater is related to the current by the following relation:

E= I^{2}R t

let R * t = k ( ∴ R and t both are constant)

so E= k I^{2}

Now let:

E2= k I₂^2

E2= 4E

⇒ k I₂^2= 4* k I^{2}

Cancel same terms on both sides.

I₂^2= 4* I^{2}

taking square-root on both sides.

√I₂^2 = √4* I^2

⇒I₂= 2I

If we double the current the energy delivered each minute be 4E.

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.
Nonamiya [84]
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano
Brums [2.3K]

f = ma

Rearranging it, we get;

a =  \frac{f}{m}
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

a =  \frac{325}{250}
a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }
