A 4 kg bowling ball moving at 1.4 m/s east impacts a 400 g pin that is stationary. After the impact, the ball is moving at 0.5 m

nignag [31]

The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

<h3>Final speed of the pin</h3>

The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2

where;

m is the mass of the objects
u is the initial speed of the objects
v is the final speed of the objects

4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2

5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2

5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2

3.6 = 0.4v2

v2 = 3.6/0.4

v2 = 9 m/s

Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

Explanation:

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 foot = 12 inches

1 mile = 5260 feet

1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm

Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.

(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches

Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches

Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.

(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

$1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}$

So,

$5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}$

5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet

Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.

Lukalu is rappelling off a cliff. The parametric equations that describe her horizontal and vertical position as a function of t

andre [41]

Answer:

2.5 s, 5 m

Explanation:

The equations for the horizontal and vertical position of Lukalu are:

$x(t) = 8t\\y(t) = -16t^2 + 100$

we can find the time it takes her to reach the ground by requiring that the vertical position becomes zero:

y(t) = 0

So we find:

$0=-16t^2 +100\\16t^2 = 100\\t=\sqrt{\frac{100}{16}}=2.5 s$

The horizontal distance of Lukalu instead will be given by the equation for the horizontal position, substituting t = 2.5 s:

$x=8t = 8 \cdot 2.5 s =5 m$

Briefly explain the two postulates of relativity, how they differed from classical physics, and why Einstein was led to propose

Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

The two postulates of special theory of relativity

Postulate 1: The law of physics are invariant under any of inertial frame of reference.

Postulate 2: The velocity of light is remains same in each ans every frame of reference and independent of relativity.

They are differ from classical mechanics that in classical mechanics there is no change in mass and length in relative velocity but in relativistic mechanics it changes.

These two postulates implements in phenomenon like time dilation , length contraction etc.
