I know i did part a correctly. heres what i did: momentum is conserved: m1 * u - m2 * u = m2 * v or (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v Also, for an elastic head-on collision, we know that the relative velocity of approach = relative velocity of separation (from conservation of energy), or, for this problem, 2u = v Then (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * 2u m1 - m2 = 2 * m2 m1 = 3 * m2 m1 is the sphere that remained at rest (hence its absence from the RHS), so m2 = 0.3kg / 3 m2 = 0.1 kg b) this part confuses me, heres what i did (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v (.3kg - .1kg)(2.0m/s) = .1kg * v .4 kg = .1 v v = 4 m/s What my teacher did: (.3g - .1g) * 2.0m/s = (.3g + .1g) * v I understand the left hand side but i dont get the right hand side. Why is m1 added to m2 when m1 is at rest which makes its v = zero?? v = +1.00m/s since the answer is positive, what does that mean? Also, if v was -1.00m/s what would that mean? thanks!

Well depending on what current the heater pulls im going to assume about 13, and 13A for the hair dryer, thats 26A on the 40A circuit.
I dont see how a lightbulb could overload the circuit.
Anyway, assuming the circuit is overloaded by some really big heater- the circuit would trip, the fuse would go and remain off. Most houses are fitted with seperate circuits for lights and sockets, so the light may remain on depending on the breaker board. - the reason for them all being able to run with the sudden overload may be due to a surge.
One solution to this is not to put such a large heater on the circuit with other appliances.
Another may be to dry your hair in the dark
Answer:
This motion is known as Brownian motion.
Explanation:
This motion is known as Brownian motion.
Answer: 4,438.96m
Explanation:
(kindly find attachment below)
From the attachment below, it can be seen that the resultant displacement and the other 2 displacements form a right angle triangle, with A+B as the hypotenus, 3.2km as the opposite and the displacement B as the adjacent.
By using phythagoras theorem
H² = O² + A²
(5.38)² = (3.20)² + B²
28.944 = 10.24 + B²
B² = 28.944 - 10.24
B² = 18.7044
B = √18.7044
B = 4.439km to meter is 4.439 * 1000 = 4,438. 96m
