Two brothers, Frank and Dion, are on roller skates and standing still when they push off from one another. Frank's mass is 103.4

kg. Dion's mass is 51.6 kg. After they push off, Frank has a velocity of -7 m/s. What will Dion's velocity be?

Around -3.5 ( might not be completely right ) Frank has a greater mass to he has a low velocity at first, Dion is around half of his weight so he doesn’t have to use as much force to get more than Frank

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. The first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 10
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer: Their final relative velocity is -0.412 m/s.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation,

      m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2})v

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

      m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2})v

     2.50 \times 10^{3} kg \times 0 m/s + 7.50 \times 10^{3} kg \times -0.550 m/s = (2.50 \times 10^{3} kg + 7.50 \times 10^{3} kg)v

           -4.12 \times 10^{3} kg m/s = (10^{4} kg) v

                   v = \frac{-4.12 \times 10^{3} kg m/s}{10^{4} kg}

                      = -0.412 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that their final relative velocity is -0.412 m/s.

I would love to stretch a wire from our house to the Shop so I can 'call' my husband in for meals. The wire could be tightened t
dezoksy [38]
Note: I'm not sure what do you mean by "weight 0.05 kg/L". I assume it means the mass per unit of length, so it should be "0.05 kg/m".

Solution:
The fundamental frequency in a standing wave is given by
f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L} }
where L is the length of the string, T the tension and m its mass. If  we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we find
f= \frac{1}{2 \cdot 24 m} \sqrt{ \frac{240 N}{0.05 kg/m} }=1.44 Hz

The wavelength of the standing wave is instead twice the length of the string:
\lambda=2 L= 2 \cdot 24 m=48 m

So the speed of the wave is
v=\lambda f = (48 m)(1.44 Hz)=69.1 m/s

And the time the pulse takes to reach the shop is the distance covered divided by the speed:
t= \frac{L}{v}= \frac{24 m}{69.1 m/s}=0.35 s

Ashkon throws a basketball across the court to his teammate. The ball has 57 J of potential energy and 61 J of kinetic energy. W
Gwar [14]
The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.
