Two balls of clay, with masses M1 = 0.49 kg and M2 = 0.47 kg, are thrown at each other and stick when they collide. Mass 1 has a

velocity v1 = 3.2i m/s and mass 2 has a velocity of v2 = 1.6j m/s. Part (a) Write an expression for the initial momentum of the system. P, in terms of the masses M1 and M2, the magnitudes of the velocities vi and v2, and the unit vectors i and j Part (b) Find the horizontal component of the final velocity vx, in meters per second, after the collision Δ 33% Part (c) Find the vertical component of the final velocity vy, in meters per second, after the collision

Answer:

a) p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b) v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c) v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given masses:

m_1=0.49\ kg

m_2=0.47\ kg

Velocity of mass 1, v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}

Velocity of mass 2, v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}

a)

Initial momentum:

p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2

p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}

p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b)

magnitude of initial momentum:

p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}

p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}

From the conservation of momentum:

p_f=p_i

m_f.v_f=1.739

v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}

v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1} is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}

\theta=25.62^{\circ}

\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}

v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Vertical component of final velocity:

v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}

v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Can someone explain the normal force? where does it come from? ...?
Vilka [71]
<span>The normal force is the support force exerted upon an object which is in contact with another stable object. For example, if a book is resting upon a surface, then the surface is exerting an upward force upon the book in order to support the weight of the book. The normal force in itseñf comes from the third law of Newton as a reactive force</span>
