Before colliding, the momentum of block A is -100 kgm/, and block B is -150 kgm/s. After, block A has a momentum -200 kg*m/s.

What is the momentum of block B afterward? PLEASE HELP

Answer:

Momentum of block B after collision = $-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given

Before collision:

Momentum of block A = $p_{A1}$ = $-100\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Momentum of block B = $p_{B1}$ = $-150\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

After collision:

Momentum of block A = $p_{A2}$ = $-200\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Applying law of conservation of momentum to find momentum of block B after collision $p_{B2}$ .

$p_{A1}+p_{B1}=p_{A2}+p_{B2}$

Plugging in the given values and simplifying.

$-100-150=-200+p_{B2}$

$-250=-200+p_{B2}$

Adding 200 to both sides.

$200-250=-200+p_{B2}+200$

$-50=p_{B2}$

∴ $p_{B2}=-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Momentum of block B after collision = $-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Answer :

(a). The speed of the block is 0.395 m/s.

(b). No

Explanation :

Given that,

Diameter = 20.0 cm

Power = 26.0 MW

Mass = 110 kg

diameter = 20.0 cm

Distance = 100 m

We need to calculate the pressure due to laser

Using formula of pressure

$P_{r}=\dfrac{I}{c}$

$P_{r}=\dfrac{P}{Ac}Put the value into the formula[tex]P_{r}=\dfrac{26.0\times10^{6}}{\pi\times(10\times10^{-2})^2\times3\times10^{8}}$

$P_{r}=2.75\ N/m^2$

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

$F=P\times A$

$F=P\times \pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$F=2.75\times\pi (0.01)^2$

$F=0.086\ N$

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of force

$F=ma$

Put the value into the formula

$0.086=110\times a$

$a=\dfrac{0.086}{110}$

$a=0.000781\ m/s^2$

$a=7.81\times10^{-4}\ m/s^2$

(a). We need to calculate speed of the block

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2ad$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{2\times7.81\times10^{-4}\times100}$

$v=0.395\ m/s$

(b). No because the velocity is very less.

Hence, (a). The speed of the block is 0.395 m/s.

(b). No

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Δμ = hΔf/B

Explanation:

If the photon energy , ΔE = hΔf where Δf = small frequency shift and since the potential energy change of the magnetic dipole moment μ in magnetic field B from parallel to anti-parallel state is ΔU = ΔμB. where Δμ = small shift in magnetic moment.

Since the magnetic energy change equals the photon energy,

ΔE = ΔU

hΔf = ΔμB

Δμ = hΔf/B

What is resonance in sound

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: Resonance in sound is when one object is vibrating at the same frequency to the second object of forces to the second frequency.

Explanation:

"Acoustic resonance is a phenomenon in which an acoustic system amplifies sound waves whose frequency matches one of its own natural frequencies of vibration (its resonance frequencies)." wikipedia I hope this helps you!
