Answer:

v_{2f} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}

Explanation:

If the collision is elastic and exactly head-on, then we can use the law of momentum conservation for the motion of the 2 balls

Before the collision

P_i = m_1v

After the collision

P_f = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

So using the law of momentum conservation

P_i = P_f

m_1v = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

We can solve for the speed of ball 1 post collision in terms of others:

v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}

Their kinetic energy is also conserved before and after collision

m_1v^2/2 = m_1v_{1f}^2/2 + m_2v_{2f}^2/2

m_1v^2 = m_1v_{1f}^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2

From here we can plug in v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}

m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right)^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2

m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v^2 - 2vv_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1} + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1^2}\right) + m_2v_{2f}^2

m_1v^2 = m_1v^2 - 2vv_{2f}m_2 + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1} + m_2v_{2f}^2

v_{2f}^2(m_2 + \frac{m_2^2}{m_1}) - 2vm_2v_{2f} = 0

v_{2f}(1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}) = 2v

v_{2f} = \frac{2v}{1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2v}{\frac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}

When a metal wire has an electric field applied, electric current flows. a) If we consider the path the electrons take through t
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

(a) When the electric field is applied to the ends of the wire, electrons move through the wire because the resistance of the wire is less than the resistance of the surrounding air. Resistance is the obstruction to the flow of electrons hence electrons flow through the path having minimum resistance.

(b) As the thermal energy increases, Kinetic energy of electrons as well as that of positive ions also increase. Hence the mean time between collisions of electrons with ions is reduced due to movement of ions also. That is why Resistance of the wire increases.

Someone got this paper?
Snezhnost [94]
First question (upper left):
1/Req = 1/12 + 1/24 = 1/8
Req = 8 ohms
Voltage is equal through different resistors, and V1 = V2 = 24 V.
Current varies through parallel resistors: I1 = V1/R1 = 24/12 = 2 A. I2 = 24/24 = 1 A.

Second question (middle left):
V1 = V2 = 6 V (parallel circuits)
I1 = 2 A, I2 = 1 A, IT = 2+1 = 3 A.
R1 = V1/I1 = 6/2 = 3 ohms, R2 = 6/1 = 6 ohms, 1/Req = 1/2 + 1/1, Req = 2/3 ohms

Third question (bottom left):
V1 = V2 = 12 V
IT = 3 A, meaning Req = V/It = 12 V/3 A = 4 ohms
1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2, 1/4 = 1/12 + 1/R2, R2 = 6 ohms
I1 = V/R1 = 1 A, I2 = V/R2 = 2 A

Fourth question (top right):
1/Req = 1/20 + 1/20, Req = 10 ohms
IT = 4 A, so VT = IT(Req) = 4*10 = 40 V
Parallel circuits, so V1 = V2 = VT = 40 V
Since the resistors are identical, the current is split evenly between both: I1 = I2 = IT/2 = 2 A.

Fifth question (middle right):
1/Req = 1/5 + 1/20 + 1/4, Req = 2 ohms
IT = VT/Req = 40 V/2 ohms = 20 A
V1 = V2 = V3 = 40 V
The current of 20 A will be divided proportionally according to the resistances of 5, 20, and 4, the factors will be 5/(5+20+4), 20/(5+20+4), and 4/(5+20+4), which are 5/29, 20/29, and 4/29.
I1 = 20(5/29) = 100/29 A
I2 = 20(20/29) = 400/29 A
I3 = 20(4/29) = 80/29 A

Sixth question (bottom right):
V2 = 30V is given, but since these are parallel circuits, V1 = VT = 30 V.
Then I1 = V1/R1 = 30 V/10 ohms = 3 A.
I2 = 30 V/15 ohms = 2 A.
IT = 3 + 2 = 5 A
1/Req = 1/10 + 1/15, Req = 6 ohms

How does Electromagnetic Energy Travel?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Perpendicular to the electric field and magnetic field

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

they does not require any media to travel. It has two perpendicular electric field and the magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other

They travel perpendicular to each of those electric and magnetic fields.
