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

Why aren't homes wired in series? A. Because it's too expensive. B. Parallel circuits are too complex for home wiring. O C. Beca
Liula [17]

Answer:

D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.

On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.

A slingshot can project a pebble at a speed as high as 38.0 m/s. (a) If air resistance can be ignored, how high (in m) would a p
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

73.67 m

Explanation:

If projected straight up, we can work in 1 dimension, and we can use the following kinematic equations:

y(t) = y_0 + V_0 * t + \frac{1}{2} a t^2

V(t) = V_0 + a * t,

Where y_0 its our initial height, V_0  our initial speed, a the acceleration and t the time that has passed.

For our problem, the initial height its 0 meters, our initial speed its 38.0 m/s, the acceleration its the gravitational one ( g = 9.8 m/s^2), and the time its uknown.

We can plug this values in our equations, to obtain:

y(t) =  38 \frac{m}{s} * t - \frac{1}{2} g t^2

V(t) = 38 \frac{m}{s} - g * t

note that the acceleration point downwards, hence the minus sign.

Now, in the highest point, velocity must be zero, so, we can grab our second equation, and write:

0 m = 38 \frac{m}{s} - g * t

and obtain:

t = 38 \frac{m}{s} / g

t = 38 \frac{m}{s} / 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}

t = 3.9 s

Plugin this time on our first equation we find:

y = 38 \frac{m}{s} * 3.9 s - \frac{1}{2} 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} (3.9 s)^2

y=73.67 m
