A hockey stick of mass ms and length L is at rest on the ice (which is assumed to be frictionless). A puck with mass mp hits the

stick a distance D from the middle of the stick. Before the collision, the puck was moving with speed v0 in a direction perpendicular to the stick, as indicated in the figure. The collision is completely inelastic, and the puck remains attached to the stick after the collision.
What is the angular momentum Lcm of the system before the collision, with respect to the center of mass of the final system?
Express Lcm in terms of the given variables.

Answer:

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Explanation:

Given info

ms = mass of the hockey stick

uis = 0 (initial speed of the hockey stick before the collision)

xis = D (initial position of center of mass of the hockey stick before the collision)

mp = mass of the puck

uip = v₀ (initial speed of the puck before the collision)

xip = 0 (initial position of center of mass of the puck before the collision)

If we apply

Ycm = (ms*xis + mp*xip) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D + mp*0) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Now, we can apply the equation

L = m*v*R

where m = mp

v = v₀

R = Ycm

then we have

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.

The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:

7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42

So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.

Which of the following objects cannot make a shadow? Broken piece of glass from a window/wooden pane of the same window? Explain
Lorico [155]

Answer:

broken pieces of glass from a window can't form a shadow.

Explanation:

the reason is that shadow is formed only when light rays hits an opaque object, which doesn't let light to pass through it, but glass is a transparent object, hence light rays passes through it forming no shadow..

The kinetic energy of a sliding block came from the:
patriot [66]

Answer:

Correct sentence: gravitational potential energy of the mass on the hook.

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of a body or a physical system is the sum of its kinetic energy and potential energy. It is a scalar magnitude related to the movement of bodies and to forces of mechanical origin, such as gravitational force and elastic force, whose main exponent is Hooke's Law. Both are conservative forces. The mechanical energy associated with the movement of a body is kinetic energy, which depends on its mass and speed. On the other hand, the mechanical energy of potential origin or potential energy, has its origin in the conservative forces, comes from the work done by them and depends on their mass and position. The principle of conservation of energy relates both energies and expresses that the sum of both energies, the potential energy and the kinetic energy of a body or a physical system, remains constant. This sum is known as the mechanical energy of the body or physical system.

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the block comes from the transformation in this of the gravitational potential energy of the suspended mass as it loses height with respect to the earth, keeping the mechanical energy of the system constant.

A football kick returner catches the ball just as a player from the opposing team dives to tackle him. At the time of impact, th

The total momentum of the players after collision is 130 kgm/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Initial momentum of the returner, </em>P_i_1<em> = 0 kgm/s</em>
  • <em>The initial momentum of the diving player, </em>P_i_2<em> = 130 kgm/s</em>

The total momentum of the players after collision is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

P_f = P_i_1 + P_i_2\\\\P_f = 0 + 130\\\\P_f = 130 \ kgm/s

Thus, the total momentum of the players after collision is 130 kgm/s.
