In a closed system with no friction, a red sphere of 2.5 kg stands stationary. A blue sphere with a mass of 5.8 kg approaches th

e first sphere with a speed of 4.1 m/s. The two collide. After the collision, the blue sphere begins moving forward with a speed of 1.3 m/s. What is the velocity of the red sphere after the collision? (Show all work)

Answer:

m1 = the mass of the blue sphere = 5.8 kg

m2 = the mass of the red sphere = 2.5 kg

v1 = initial velocity of the blue sphere before the collision = 4.1 m/s

v2 = initial velocity of the red sphere before the collision = 0 m/s

v'1 = final velocity of the blue sphere after the collision = 1.3 m/s

v'2 = final velocity of the red sphere after the collision = ?

using conservation of momentum

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v'1 + m2v'2

(5.8) (4.1) + (2.5) (0) = (5.8) (1.3) + (2.5) (v'2)

23.78 = 7.54 + (2.5) (v'2)

-7.54    -7.54

16.24 = (2.5) v'2

---------   -----------

 2.5         2.5

v'2 = 6.5

An electric heater is operated by applying a potential difference of 78.0 V across a nichrome wire of total resistance 7.00 Ω. a
aleksley [76]

PART A)

Here we know that

potential difference across the wire is

V = 78 volts

resistance of wire is

R = 7 ohm

now by ohm's law

V = iR

78 = i(7 ohm)

i = 11.14 A

Part b)

Power rating is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is defined as

P = iV

now we have

P = 11.14 ( 78)

P = 869.1 Watt
