Answer:

The final speed for the mass 2m is v_{2y}=-1,51\ v_{i} and the final speed for the mass 9m is v_{1f} =0,85\ v_{i}.

The angle at which the particle 9m is scattered is \theta = -66,68^{o} with respect to the - y axis.

Explanation:

In an elastic collision the total linear momentum and the total kinetic energy is conserved.

<u>Conservation of linear momentum:</u>

Because the linear momentum is a vector quantity we consider the conservation of the components of momentum in the x and y axis.

The subindex 1 will refer to the particle 9m and the subindex 2 will refer to the particle 2m

\vec{p}=m\vec{v}

p_{xi} =p_{xf}

In the x axis before the collision we have

p_{xi}=9m\ v_{i} - 2m\ v_{i}

and after the collision we have that

p_{xf} =9m\ v_{1x}

In the y axis before the collision p_{yi} =0

after the collision we have that

p_{yf} =9m\ v_{1y} - 2m\ v_{2y}

so

p_{xi} =p_{xf} \\7m\ v_{i} =9m\ v_{1x}\Rightarrow v_{1x} =\frac{7}{9}\ v_{i}

then

p_{yi} =p_{yf} \\0=9m\ v_{1y} -2m\ v_{2y} \\v_{1y}=\frac{2}{9} \ v_{2y}

<u>Conservation of kinetic energy:</u>

\frac{1}{2}\ 9m\ v_{i} ^{2} +\frac{1}{2}\ 2m\ v_{i} ^{2}=\frac{1}{2}\ 9m\ v_{1f} ^{2} +\frac{1}{2}\ 2m\ v_{2f} ^{2}

so

\frac{11}{2}\ m\ v_{i} ^{2} =\frac{1}{2} \ 9m\ [(\frac{7}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2}+ (\frac{2}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{2y} ^{2}]+ m\ v_{2y} ^{2}

Putting in one side of the equation each speed we get

\frac{25}{9}\ m\ v_{i} ^{2} =\frac{11}{9}\ m\ v_{2y} ^{2}\\v_{2y} =-1,51\ v_{i}

We know that the particle 2m travels in the -y axis because it was stated in the question.

Now we can get the y component of the  speed of the 9m particle:

v_{1y} =\frac{2}{9}\ v_{2y} \\v_{1y} =-0,335\ v_{i}

the magnitude of the final speed of the particle 9m is

v_{1f} =\sqrt{v_{1x} ^{2}+v_{1y} ^{2} }

v_{1f} =\sqrt{(\frac{7}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2}+(-0,335)^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2} }\Rightarrow \ v_{1f} =0,85\ v_{i}

The tangent that the speed of the particle 9m makes with the -y axis is

tan(\theta)=\frac{v_{1x} }{v_{1y}} =-2,321 \Rightarrow\theta=-66,68^{o}

As a vector the speed of the particle 9m is:

\vec{v_{1f} }=\frac{7}{9} v_{i} \hat{x}-0,335\ v_{i}\ \hat{y}

As a vector the speed of the particle 2m is:

\vec{v_{2f} }=-1,51\ v_{i}\ \hat{y}

Julie drives 100 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's, Julie drives half the distance at 30.0 mph and half the
salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance to grandmother's house=100 mi

it is given that during return trip Julie spend equal time driving with speed 30 mph and 70 mph

Let Julie travel x mi with 30 mph and 100-x with 70 mph

\frac{x}{30}=\frac{100-x}{70}

x=30 mi

Therefore

Julie's Average speed on the way to Grandmother's house=\frac{100}{\frac{50}{30}+\frac{50}{70}}

=42 mph

On return trip

=\frac{100}{2\frac{30}{30}}=50 mph

A proton accelerates from rest in a uniform electric field of 610 N/C. At some later time, its speed is 1.4 106 m/s.(a) Find the
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) 5.851× 10¹⁰m/s²

b) 2.411×10⁻¹¹s

c)  1.70×10⁻¹¹m

d) 1.661×10⁻²⁷KJ

Explanation:

A proton in the field experience a downward force of magnitude,

F = eE. The force of gravity on the proton will be negligible compared to the electric force

F = eE

a= eE/m

= 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ × 610/1.67×10⁻²⁷

= 5.851× 10¹⁰m/s²

b)

V = u + at

u= 0

v= 1.4106m/s

v= (0)t + at

t= v/a

= 1.4106m/s/5.851 ×10¹⁰

= 2.411×10⁻¹¹s

c)

S = ut + at²

= (o)t + 5.851×10¹⁰×(2.411×10⁻¹¹)²

= 1.70×10⁻¹¹m

d)

Ke = 1/2mv²

    = (1.67×10⁻²⁷×)(1.4106)²/2

 =  1.661×10⁻²⁷KJ

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from 0 to 5.40 m/s
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) 378Ns

b) 477.27N

Explanation:

Impulse is the defined as the product of the applied force and time taken. This is expressed according to the formula

I = Ft = m(v-u)

m is the mass = 70kg

v is the final velocity = 5.4m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

Get the impulse

I = m(v-u)

I = 70(5.4-0)

I = 70(5.4)

I = 378Ns

b) Average total force is expressed as

F = ma (Newton's second law)

F = m(v-u)/t

F = 378/0.792

F = 477.27N

Hence the average total force experienced by a 70.0-kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates is 477.27N
