A 15.0 kg medicine ball is thrown at a velocity of 10.0 m/s to a 60.0 kg person who is a rest on ice. The person catches the bal

l and immediately slides across the ice. Assume that momentum is conserved and there is no friction. Calculate the velocity of the person AND THE BALL.

Answer:

The velocity of ball and man after catching ball is 2m/s

Explanation:

Since there is no friction and no external force the momentum is conserved .

Here when man catches ball then man and ball move with common velocity .

Let the final common velocity be v_{f},

     Given  that  mass of the ball is  m_{b} =15kg

    Given  that mass of man is m=60kg

  Initial velocity of ball = v_{i} = 10m/s

Now considering momentum conservation

             p_{i} =p_{f}

     m_{b}v_{i} = (m_{b} +m)\times v\\v=m_{b}v_{i}/(m_{b} +m) = \frac{150}{75} =2m/s

Answer:

Ball = 150kg*m/s

Explanation:

How to find momentum, p:

p = m*v    (P=MOMENTUM, M=MASS, V=VELOCITY OF BALL)

P = 15*10

P=150

For the human, momentum is always conserved, so what the momentum is before the ball is thrown must equal after the ball is thrown:

pBEFORE= pAFTER

mv = mv

(15)(10) = (60)(v)    SOLVE FOR V

150 = 60v

v = 5/3

-Boston tea party-
lisov135 [29]

Answer: The Boston Tea Party was a political protest that occurred on December 16, 1773, at Griffin’s Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing “taxation without representation,” dumped 342 chests of tea, imported by the British East India Company into the harbor. The event was the first major act of defiance to British rule over the colonists. It showed Great Britain that Americans wouldn’t take taxation and tyranny sitting down, and rallied American patriots across the 13 colonies to fight for independence.

Imagine a system where a block rests on an inclined plane. The block is then given an initial push so that it starts sliding dow
Helen [10]

Answer:

statement - 'The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push' is correct.

Explanation:

The statement ''The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by the gravity and the initial push" is correct.

The above statement is correct because, the initial push will tend to slide down the block thus the work done by the initial push will be in the downward direction. Also, the gravity always acts in the downward direction. thus, the work done done by the gravity will also be in the downward direction

here, the downward direction signifies the downward motion parallel to the inclined plane.

Now we know that the work done by the friction is against the direction of motion. Thus, the friction force will tend to move the block up parallel to the inclined plane.

Hence, for the block to stop sliding the the above statement should be true.

tester [92]

Answer:

because each row increases in atomic mass by a specific number, so anything over five is in the second row.
