During the collision between two balls on the pool table there is no external force along the line of collision between them

Since there is no external force on it so here we can say

F = 0 = \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

here we have

\Delta P = 0

so we can say

P_i = P_f

since there is no external force so we can say during the collision the momentum of two balls will remain conserved

<h3>Sample Response: <em>Yes, the law of conservation of momentum is satisfied. The total momentum before the collision is 1.5 kg • m/s and the total momentum after the collision is 1.5 kg • m/s. The momentum before and after the collision is the same.</em></h3><h3><em /></h3>

Which process produces the energy radiated by the star when it becomes a main sequence star?
inysia [295]
The process that produces the energy radiated by stars is nuclear fusion in the core.
For a star on the main sequence, it's the fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium.

What is the average cost for a severe injury in a collision?
koban [17]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

According to research and data, the average cost for a severe injury in a collision is $247,000.

These include traumatic brain injury, severe damage to limbs which could result to loss of the limbs, spinal cord injuries that could result to partial or total paralysis as well as internal damage to organs in the collision.

A spring with force constant of 59 N/m is compressed by 1.3 cm in a hockey game machine. The compressed spring is used to accele
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Explanation:

As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.

So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.

Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So

1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have

1/2kx² = mgh

h = kx²/2mg

= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N

= 0.0259 m

= 2.59 cm

≅ 2.6 cm

So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
