Object is at rest when object collides with it. The collision is one-dimensional andelastic. After the collision object has half

the velocity that object had before thecollision. (a) Which object has the greater mass? (b) How much greater? (c) If the velocityof object before the collision was to the right, what is its velocity after the collision

Answer:

a) M₂ ( the object that is stationary) b) 3 times c) the velocity is to the left

Explanation:

let the object in motion = M₁, object stationary = M₂, the initial velocity of the M₁ = U₁, since the second object is at rest U₂ = 0, final velocity of the M₁ = V₁ and final velocity for M₂ = V₂

Using conservation law of momentum:

M₁U₁ = M₁V₁ + M₂V₂ since the second body is at rest

also

V₂ = U₁ / 2 and the collision is elastic meaning

U₁ = V₂ - V₁

U₁ = U₁ / 2 - V₁

V₁ = -U₁/2

substitute V₁ into the first equation

M₁U₁ = M₁V₁ + M₂V₂

M₁U₁ = M₁ (-U₁/2) + M₂ ( U₁/2)

collect the like terms

M₁U₁ + M₁ (U₁/2) = M₂(U₁/2)

3/2(M₁ U₁) = M₂ (U₁/2)

divide both side by U₁/2

3 M₁ = M₂

b) M₂ = 3 M₁

M₂ is three times M₁

c) V₁ = -U₁/2

since V₁ is negative, the velocity will be to the left

Water is flowing into a factory in a horizontal pipe with a radius of 0.0183 m at ground level. This pipe is then connected to a

timama [110]

Answer:

$0.0168 m^3/s$

Explanation:

We are given that

$r_1=0.0183 m$

$h_1=0$

$r_2=0.0420 m$

$h_2=12.6 m$

Let $P_1=P_2=P$

By using Bernoulli theorem

$P+\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2_1+\rho gh_1=P+\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2_2+\rho gh_2$

$\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2_1+\rho gh_1=\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2_2+\rho gh_2$

$v^2_1+2gh_1=v^2_2+2gh_2$

$A_1v_1=A_2v_2$

$v_1=\frac{A_2v_2}{A_1}$

$(\frac{A_2}{A_1})^2v^2_2+2g\times 0=v^2_2+2\times 9.8\times 12.6$

$(\frac{\pi r^2_2}{\pi r^2_1})^2v^2_2-v^2_2=246.96$

$v^2_2((\frac{r^2_2}{r^2_1})^2-1)=246.96$

$v^2_2=246.96\frac{r^4_1}{r^2_4-r^4_1}$

$v_2=\sqrt{246.96\frac{r^4_1}{r^4_2-r^4_1}}$

$v_2=\sqrt{246.96\times \frac{(0.0183)^4}{(0.042)^4-(0.0183)^4}}$

$v_2=3.038 m/s$

Volume flow rate = $A_2v_2$

Volume flow rate = $\pi r^2_2v_2=\pi (0.042)^2\times 3.038=0.0168 m^3/s$

What did you notice about your muscles as you performed the combinations? Were there steps or movements that took more effort? D

Bess [88]

Answer:Muscles pull on the joints, allowing us to move. They also help the body do such things as chewing food and then moving it through the digestive system. Even when we sit perfectly still, muscles throughout the body are constantly moving.

Muscles move body parts by contracting and then relaxing. Muscles can pull bones, but they can't push them back to the original position. So they work in pairs of flexors and extensors. The flexor contracts to bend a limb at a joint.

Sort the following hypothetical discoveries into the appropriate bins as follows:consistent with theory: the statement describes

goblinko [34]

Here are the three observable facts that are explained by the nebular theory:
1) Planets all rotate in the same direction
2) Planets all orbit in within 6 degrees of a common plane
3) Planets within the orbit of the Asterioid Belt (terrestrial planets) are rocky while those outside it are gaseous.

Here are the missing statements and its appropriate labels:

all 6 of stars terrestrial planets have a moon as large as earth's moon - NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY

<span>a star is surrounded by a disk of gas but has no planets - CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>a star has 20 planets - CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>a stars 5 terrestrial planets orbit in the opposite direction of its 3 jovian planets - NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>beyond its jovian planets, a star has two ice-rich objects as large as mars - CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>of a stars 5 terrestrial planets, 1 has a moon as large as earth's moon - CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>a stars 4 jovian planets formed in its inner solar system and its 4 terrestrial planets formed farther out - NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

<span>a star has 9 planets, but none orbit in close to the same plane - NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE THEORY</span>

f the force (at 90∘ to the lever arm) applied is 15 N and it is applied at 2.0 m from the pivot point (point of rotation), what

I am Lyosha [343]

15*2=30Nm of torque
the fact that it is 90 degrees to the lever means that the force is transferred directly tot he pivot; at a different angle you would multiply your answer by the sin of the angle to find the side of the triangle the force is exerted, but at 90 degrees sin(90)=1, so multiplying 30Nm by 1 is the same result.
If you are confused by this I can try to explain it further
