Answer:

11,000 kg

(a) 11.2 m/s

(b) 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(2200 kg) (60.0 km/h) + m (0 km/h) = (2200 kg) (10 km/h) + m (10 km/h)

132,000 kg km/h = 22,000 kg km/h + m (10 km/h)

110,000 kg km/h = m (10 km/h)

m = 11,000 kg

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(m) (-v) + (2m) (5v) = (m) (v₁) + (2m) (v₂)

-mv + 10mv = m v₁ + 2m v₂

9mv = m (v₁ + 2 v₂)

9v = v₁ + 2 v₂

Since the collision is elastic, kinetic energy is also conserved.

½ m₁u₁² + ½ m₂u₂² = ½ m₁v₁² + ½ m₂v₂²

m₁u₁² + m₂u₂² = m₁v₁² + m₂v₂²

(m) (-v)² + (2m) (5v)² = m v₁² + (2m) v₂²

mv² + 50mv² = m v₁² + 2m v₂²

51mv² = m (v₁² + 2 v₂²)

51v² = v₁² + 2 v₂²

We know v = 1.60 m/s. So the two equations are:

14.4 = v₁ + 2 v₂

130.56 = v₁² + 2 v₂²

Solve the system of equations using substitution.

130.56 = (14.4 − 2 v₂)² + 2 v₂²

130.56 = 207.36 − 57.6 v₂ + 4 v₂² + 2 v₂²

0 = 6 v₂² − 57.6 v₂ + 76.8

0 = v₂² − 9.6 v₂ + 12.8

v₂ = [ 9.6 ± √(9.6² − 4(1)(12.8)) ] / 2(1)

v₂ = 1.6 or 8

If v₂ = 1.6 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = 11.2 m/s.

If v₂ = 8 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = -1.6 m/s.

We know v₁ can't be -1.6 m/s, since that would mean puck A didn't change speeds after the collision. Therefore, v₁ = 11.2 m/s and v₂ = 1.6 m/s.

Which of the following statements concerning the electric field inside a conductor is true?

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

The electric field inside a conductor is always zero if the charges inside the conductor are not moving.

Since the electron are not moving then they must be in electrostatic equilibrium which means the electric field inside the conductor is zero. if the electric field existed inside the conductor then there will be net force on all the electrons and the electrons will accelerate.

What is the efficiency of a 0.60 kg basketball that, one dropped from a 2.0 m height (from basket rim) , rebounds to 1.2 m in he

Zinaida [17]

<h2>Let us find the efficiency : Ans = 0.6</h2>

Explanation:

we know :

efficiency = output/input

We also know that :

output = m x g x h

where :

m = mass of body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of body from floor

Thus, output = 0.6 x 10 x 1.2 = 7.2J

Similarly ,input = 0.6 x 10 x 2 = 12J

Thus efficiency = 7.2/12 = 0.6

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

17304 J

Explanation:

Complete statement of the question is :

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to the top of the slope, a rider and his tube, with a total mass of 84 kg , are pulled at a constant speed by a tow rope that maintains a constant tension of 350 N .

Part A

How much thermal energy is created in the slope and the tube during the ascent of a 30-m-high, 120-m-long slope?

Solution :

$T$ = tension force in the tow rope = 350 N
