There are two general types of collisions, inelastic and elastic.
Inelastic collisions occur when two objects collide but neither of them bounce away from each other.
Collisions in which the objects do not touch each other are elastic. (Ex: Rutherford Scattering)
Answer: The principle of conservation of energy, angular speed and centripetal force
Explanation:
At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy
As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.
The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .
1. Each plot represents the meters traveled by both the Hare and the Tortoise over a certain period of time (minutes).
2. The Tortoise lines show it lines is steadily increasing over a period of time. So as more time elapses the faster the tortoise becomes it travels more meters. The Tortoise line shows steady acceleration.
3. The Hare in the first 5 minutes had a rapid fast advancement up to 40 meters. But for the 5-20 mins. period the Hare did not move at all. Its speed stayed at the same place. But towards the end 20-25 mins. marks the Hare started moving again. At the end the Hare at first had a rapid acceleration but stopped for a long time then it sped up briefly.
Explanation:
The magnitude of a vector v can be found using Pythagorean's theorem.
||v|| = √(vₓ² + vᵧ²)
||v|| = √((-309)² + (187)²)
||v|| ≈ 361
You can find the angle of a vector using trigonometry.
tan θ = vᵧ / vₓ
tan θ = 187 / -309
θ ≈ 149° or θ ≈ 329°
vₓ is negative and vᵧ is positive, so θ must be in the second quadrant. Therefore, θ ≈ 149°.
