A honeybee with a mass of 0.150 g lands on one end of a floating 4.75-g popsicle stick, as shown in (Figure 1) . After sitting a

t rest for a moment, it runs toward the other end with a velocity v⃗ b relative to the still water. The stick moves in the opposite direction with a speed of 0.140 cm/s.
What is the velocity of the bee? (Let the direction of the bee's motion be the positive x direction.)

Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units.

Answer:

0.0443 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of honeybee = 0.15 g

m_2 = Mass of popsicle stick = 4.75 g

v_1 = Velocity of honeybee

v_2 = Velocity of stick = 0.14 cm/s

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

m_1v_1=m_2v_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{4.75\times 0.14}{0.15}\\\Rightarrow v_1=4.43\ m/s

The velocity of the bee is 4.43 cm/s or 0.0443 m/s

During a tennis volley, a ball that arrives at a player at 40 m/s is struck by the racquet and returned at 40 m/s. The other pla
Butoxors [25]

Answer:Racquet force is twice of Player force

Explanation:

Given

ball arrives at a speed of u=-40\ m/s

ball returned with speed of v=40\ m/s

average Force imparted by racquet on the ball is given by

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

where m=mass\ of\ ball

\Delta t=time of contact of ball with racquet

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(40-(-40))}{\Delta t}

F_{racquet}=\frac{80m}{\Delta t}-----1

When it land on the player hand its final velocity becomes zero and time of contact is same as of racquet

F_{player}=\frac{m(0-40)}{\Delta t}

F_{player}=\frac{-40m}{\Delta t}-----2

From 1 and 2 we get

F_{racquet}=-2F_{player}

Hence the magnitude of Force by racquet is twice the Force by player

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an accelaration of _4m/s calculate its velocity​
Kobotan [32]

Complete question:

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an acceleration of -4m/s². calculate its velocity​ after 10s ?

Answer:

the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 44 m/s

acceleration of the train, a = -4m/s² (the negative sign shows that the train is decelerating)

time of motion, t = 10 s

let the final velocity of the train = v

The final velocity of the train is calculated using the following kinematic equation;

v = u + at

v = 44 + (-4 x 10)

v = 44 - 40

v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

a linear function has the same y-intercept as x + 4y equals 16 and it's graph contains the point (4,5). Find the slope of the li
navik [9.2K]

Answer:  \bold{\text{Slope (m)}=\dfrac{1}{4}}

<u>Explanation:</u>

A linear equation is of the form: y = mx + b   where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept (where it crosses the y-axis)

x + 4y = 16

     4y = -x + 16

       y = -\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{16}{4}

       y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+4

The y-intercept (b) = 4

Next, find the slope given point (4, 5) and b = 4

y=mx+b\\\\5=m(4)+4\\\\1=4m\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}=m\\\\\\\\\large\boxed{Slope (m)=\dfrac{1}{4}}

(a) Write the energy equation for an elastic collision. (b) For an inelastic collision.
velikii [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

(a) Elastic collision: When there is no loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be elastic collision.

In case of elastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is conserved and all the forces are conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The kinetic energy of the system before collision = the kinetic energy after the collision

(b) Inelastic collision: When there is some loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be inelastic collision.

In case of inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is not conserved, the total mechanical energy is conserved and all the forces or some of the forces are non conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The total mechanical energy of the system before collision = total mechanical of the system after the collision
