In the game of billiards, all the balls have approximately the same mass, about 0.17 kg. In the figure, the cue ball strikes ano

ther ball such that it follows the path shown. The other ball has a speed of 1.5 m/s immediately after the collision. What is the speed (in m/s) of the cue ball after the collision?

Answer:

v = 2.6 m/s  

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because the diagram is not given in the question.

The diagram of this question is attached below.

According to the law of conversation of momentum.

mv(initial) = mv(final)

We can see in the diagram that:

mv(initial) = 3 × 0.17

mv(final) = mv₁(final) + mv₂(final)

Consider only the horizontal components of velocities, to compare them to initial velocity.

mv(final) = mv₁(final) + mv₂(final)

0.17 × 3  = (0.17)(v)(cos 30) + (0.17)(1.5)(cos 60)

0.51 = 0.1472v + 0.1275

0.3825 = 0.1472v

v = 2.6 m/s

A space shuttle sits on the launch pad for 2.0 minutes, and then goes from rest to 4600 m/s in 8.0 minutes. Treat its motion as
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a.) a = 0 ms⁻²

b.) a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.) a = 7.67 ms⁻²

Explanation:

a.)

    Acceleration (a) is defined as the time rate of change of velocity

                       a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

Given data

 Final velocity = v₂ = 0 m/s

 Initial velocity = v ₁ = 0 m/s

  As the space shuttle remain at rest for the first 2 minutes i.e there is no change in velocity so,

                 a = 0 ms⁻²

b.)

     Given data

As the space shuttle start from rest, So initial velocity is zero

    Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

    Final velocity  = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

     Time = t = 8 min = 480 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

             a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

             a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {480}

                     a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.)

    Given data

As the space shuttle is at rest for first 2 min then start moving, So initial velocity is zero

    Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

    Final velocity  = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

     Time = t = 10 min = 600 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

             a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

             a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {600}

                     a = 7.67 ms⁻²

A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 54.5 m/s at an angle of 35.0° above the horizontal. It strikes
Alchen [17]
<h2>Answer: x=125m, y=48.308m</h2>

Explanation:

This situation is a good example of the projectile motion or parabolic motion, in which we have two components: x-component and y-component. Being their main equations to find the position as follows:

x-component:

x=V_{o}cos\theta t   (1)

Where:

V_{o}=54.5m/s is the projectile's initial speed

\theta=35\° is the angle

t=2.80s is the time since the projectile is launched until it strikes the target

x  is the final horizontal position of the projectile (the value we want to find)

y-component:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}   (2)

Where:

y_{o}=0  is the initial height of the projectile (we are told it  was launched at ground level)

y  is the final height of the projectile (the value we want to find)

g=9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity

Having this clear, let's begin with x (1):

x=(54.5m/s)cos(35\°)(2.8s)   (3)

x=125m   (4)  This is the horizontal final position of the projectile

For y (2):

y=0+(54.5m/s)sin(35\°)(2.8s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(2.8s)^{2}}{2}   (5)

y=48.308m   (6)  This is the vertical final position of the projectile

Derive an expression for the gravitational potential energy U(r) of the object-earth system as a function of the object's distan
Drupady [299]

Answer:

U(r)=-\frac{Gm_Emr^2}{2R^3_E}

Explanation:

We are given that

Gravitational force=F_g=\frac{Gm_Emr}{R^3_E}

r=0,U(0)=0

We know that

Gravitational potential energy=-\int F_gdr

U(r)=-\int\frac{Gm_Emr}{R^3_E}dr

U(r)=-\frac{Gm_Em}{R^3_E}\times \frac{r^2}{2}+C

Substitute r=0 ,U(0)=0

0=0+C

C=0

Substitute the value

U(r)=-\frac{Gm_Emr^2}{2R^3_E}

If an object has a mass of 20 grams and a volume of 40 cm3, what is its density in g/cm3?
sattari [20]
Density = Mass/Volume 
So, given mass = 20 g and volume = 40 cm^3 
By substituting in above equation, Density = 20/40 = 0.5 g/cm^3
Hope it helps.
