A steel ball and a piece of clay have equal mass. They are dropped from the same height on a horizontal steel platform. The ball
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: The ball (option A)

Explanation: change in momentum is defined by the formulae m(v - u) where m = mass of object, v = final velocity and u = initial velocity.

For the ball, it hits the ground and bounces back with the same speed, that's final velocity equals initials (v = - u)

Change in momentum = m( -u- u) = m(-2u) = m(-2u) = -2mu

For the clay, it final velocity is zero since it sticks to the floor, hence (v =0)

m(v - u) = m(0 - u) = - mu.

-2mu (change in momentum from the ball) is greater than - mu ( change in momentum of clay)

Suppose that a comet that was seen in 550 A.D. by Chinese astronomers was spotted again in year 1941. Assume the time between ob
pickupchik [31]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Kepler's third law as well as the calculation of distances in orbits with eccentricities.

Kepler's third law tells us that

T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3

Where

T= Period

G= Gravitational constant

M = Mass of the sun

a= The semimajor axis of the comet's orbit

The period in years would be given by

T= 1941-550\\T= 1391y(\frac{31536000s}{1y})\\T=4.3866*10^{10}s

PART A) Replacing the values to find a, we have

a^3= \frac{T^2 GM}{4\pi^2}

a^3 = \frac{(4.3866*10^{10})^2(6.67*10^{-11})(1.989*10^{30})}{4\pi^2}

a^3 = 6.46632*10^{39}

a = 1.86303*10^{13}m

Therefore the semimajor axis is 1.86303*10^{13}m

PART B) If the semi-major axis a and the eccentricity e of an orbit are known, then the periapsis and apoapsis distances can be calculated by

R = a(1-e)

R = 1.86303*10^{13}(1-0.997)

R= 5.58*10^{10}m

1. The efficiency of a Carnot engine is e=1-Tc/TH, where Tc is a temperature of the cold reservoir and TH is a temperature of th
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Tc=0

Explanation:

The condition to have 100% efficiency is e=1-Tc/TH=1, so Tc/TH=0, As TH is different of zero we can conclude

Tc=0 Kelvins.

What lead does to X rays?​
Arturiano [62]
Lead shielding refers to the use of lead as a form of radiation protection to shield people or objects from radiation so as to reduce the effective dose. Lead can effectively attenuate certain kinds of radiation because of its high density and high atomic number; principally, it is effective at stopping gamma rays and x-rays.
