Two ice skaters, Paula and Ricardo, initially at rest, push off from each other. Ricardo weighs more than Paula.

sveta [45]

Answer:

the two ice skater have the same momentum but the are in different directions.

Paula will have a greater speed than Ricardo after the push-off.

Explanation:

Given that:

Two ice skaters, Paula and Ricardo, initially at rest, push off from each other. Ricardo weighs more than Paula.

A. Which skater, if either, has the greater momentum after the push-off? Explain.

The law of conservation of can be applied here in order to determine the skater that possess a greater momentum after the push -off

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of two or more objects acting upon one another will not change, provided there are no external forces acting on them.

So if two objects in motion collide, their total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

SO, from the information given:

Let represent the mass of Paula with $m_{Pa}$ and its initial velocity with $u_{Pa}$

Let represent the mass of Ricardo with $m_{Ri}$ and its initial velocity with $u_{Ri}$

At rest ;

their velocities will be zero, i.e

$u_{Pa}$ = $u_{Ri}$ = 0

The initial momentum for this process can be represented as :

$m_{Pa}$ $u_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $u_{Ri}$ = 0

after push off from each other then their final velocity will be $v_{Pa}$ and $v_{Ri}$

The we can say their final momentum is:

$m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$ = 0

Using the law of conservation of momentum as states earlier.

Initial momentum = final momentum = 0

$m_{Pa}$ $u_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $u_{Ri}$ = $m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$

Since the initial velocities are stating at rest then ; u = 0

$m_{Pa}$ (0) + $m_{Pa}$ (0) = $m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$

$m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ + $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$ = 0

$m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ = - $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$

Hence, we can conclude that the two ice skater have the same momentum but the are in different directions.

B. Which skater, if either, has the greater speed after the push-off? Explain.

Given that Ricardo weighs more than Paula

So $m_{Ri} > m_{Pa}$ ;

Then $\mathsf{\dfrac{{m_{Ri}}}{m_{Pa} }= 1}$

The magnitude of their momentum which is a product of mass and velocity can now be expressed as:

$m_{Pa}$ $v_{Pa}$ = $m_{Ri}$ $v_{Ri}$

The ratio is

$\dfrac{v_{Pa}}{v_{Ri}} =\dfrac{m_{Ri}}{m_{Pa}} = 1$

$v_{Pa} >v_{Ri}$

Therefore, Paula will have a greater speed than Ricardo after the push-off.

What does 760mmHg represents??

malfutka [58]

Explanation:

760 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) is a measure of atmospheric pressure. It represents the height of a column of mercury at which the static pressure at the bottom is equal to the atmospheric pressure.

1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101,325 Pa = 14.7 psi

A block of mass m moving with a velocity v collides with a mass 2m at rest. Consider the collision is elastic, we have to find t

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

$vf_{1} =\frac{1}{3} v$ :Final block velocity (toward the left)

$vf_{2} =\frac{2}{3} v$ :Final mass velocity (to the right)

Explanation:

To solve this problem we apply the theory of shocks:

In an elastic shock the kinetic energy and the amount of linear movement or momentum are conserved.

Because the shock is elastic, the coefficient of elastic restitution (e) is equal to 1.

Principle of conservation of the momentum:

m1vi1+m2vi2=m1vf1+m2vf2 Equation 1

Formula to calculate the coefficient of elastic restitution (e):

$e=\frac{vf_{2}-vf_{1} }{vi_{1}-vi_{2} }$ Equation 2

m1: Block mass

m2: mass of the body that collides with the block

Vi1,vf1: initial, final velocity of the block

Vi2,vf2: initial, final velocity of the body that collides with the block

Of the problem data we know that:

m1=m , m2 = 2m, vi1=v and vi2=0, then, we replace this information in equation (1) :

mv+0=mvf1+2mvf2 we divide by m:

v=vf1+2vf2 Equation (3)

Because the shock is elastic, the coefficient of elastic restitution (e) is equal to 1,then , we we replace this information in equation (2)

$1=\frac{vf_{2}-vf_{1} }{v-0}$

v=vf2-vf1 Equation (4)

vf2=v+vf1 Equation (5)

We replace the equation 5 in the equation (3)

v=vf1+2(v+vf1)

v=vf1+2v+2vf1

-3vf1=v

$vf_{1} = -\frac{1}{3} v$

We replace Vf1=(-1/3)v in the equation (5):

$vf_{2} =v-\frac{1}{3} v$

$vf_{2} =\frac{2}{3} v$

Answer;

$vf_{1} =\frac{1}{3} v$ :Final block velocity (toward the left)

$vf_{2} =\frac{2}{3} v$ :Final mass velocity (to the right)
