Two particles with masses m and 3m are moving toward each other along the x axis with the same initial speeds Vi. Particle m is

traveling to the left, and the particle 3m is traveling to the right. They undergo an elastic glancing collision such that particles m is moving in the negative y direction after the collision at a right angle from its initial direction.
(a) Find the final speeds of the two particles in terms of Vi.

(b) What is the angle theta at which the particle 3m is scattered?

Answer:

v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi

v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi

ANGLE is 35.3 degree celcius

Explanation:

Given data:

mass m and 3m

initial speed Vi

particle with mass m is moving toward left while particle with mass 3m is moving toward right

By using conservation of momentum :

mVi + 3m(-Vi) = mv1 +3mv2

-2mVi = m(v1 + 3v2)

-2Vi = v1 + 3v2

conservation of energy :

m(Vi^2) + 3m(-Vi^2) = mv1^2 + 3mv2^2

4mVi^2 = m(v1^2+3v2^2)

4Vi^2 = v1^2+3v2^2

After collision, particle with mass m moves at right angles, thus by considering conservation of momentum in x & y direction,

x direction : -2mVi = 3m.v2i

-2Vi = 3v2i

y direction : 0 = m(v1)j+3m(v2)j

-v1j = 3v2j

subsitute these value in energy conservation

v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi

v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi

angle = tan^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{(2)}}{2}) =35.3 degree from x-axis

A 120 kg tackler moving at 3.0 m/s meets head-on (and tackles) a 91 kg halfback moving at 7.5 m/s. What will be their mutual vel
Vesna [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the tackler, m₁ = 120 kg

Velocity of tackler, u₁ = 3 m/s

Mass, m₂ = 91 kg

Velocity, u₂ = -7.5 m/s

We need to find the mutual velocity immediately the collision. It is the case of inelastic collision such that,

v=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}

v=\dfrac{120\ kg\times 3\ m/s+91\ kg\times (-7.5\ m/s)}{120\ kg+91\ kg}

v = -1.5 m/s

Hence, their mutual velocity after the collision is 1.5 m/s and it is moving in the same direction as the halfback was moving initially. Hence, this is the required solution.

A common flashlight bulb is rated at 0.32 A and 4.3 V (the values of the current and voltage under operating conditions). If the
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

1176.01 °C

Explanation:

Using Ohm's law,

V = IR................. Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = Resistance when the bulb is on

make R the subject of the equation

R = V/I.................. Equation 2

R = 4.3/0.32

R = 13.4375 Ω

Using

R = R'(1+αΔθ)............................. Equation 3

Where R' = Resistance of the bulb at 20°, α = Temperature coefficient of resistivity, Δθ = change in temperature

make Δθ the subject of the equation

Δθ = (R-R')/αR'.................. Equation 4

Given: R = 13.4375 Ω, R' = 1.6 Ω, α = 6.4×10⁻³ K⁻¹

Substitute into equation 4

Δθ = (13.4375-1.6)/(1.6×0.0064)

Δθ = 11.8375/0.01024

Δθ = 1156.01 °C

But,

Δθ = T₂-T₁

T₂ = T₁+Δθ

Where T₂ and T₁ = Final and initial temperature respectively.

T₂ = 20+1156.01

T₂ = 1176.01 °C

How would playing a game of soccer, baseball, or basketball be different if inertia didn’t exist?
Elina [12.6K]
This would be a funny game.

Inertia, according to first Law of Newton, means that when you throw a ball it will continue moving unless a force acts over it.

Without inertia, the ball instead of continue moving, would stop as soon as it leaves your hand or foot. You had to stay pasted to the ball unitl it reaches the desired destiny for it continue moving.
