Answer:
<em>Second option</em>
Explanation:
<u>Linear Momentum</u>
The linear momentum of an object of mass m and speed v is
P=mv
If two or more objects are interacting in the same axis, the total momentum is
Where the speeds must be signed according to a fixed reference
The images show a cart of mass 2m moves to the left with speed v since our reference is positive to the right
The second cart of mass m goes to the right at a speed v
The total momentum before the impact is
The total momentum after the collision is negative, both carts will join and go to the left side
The first option shows both carts with the same momentum before the collision and therefore, zero momentum after. It's not correct as we have already proven
The third option shows the 2m cart has a positive greater momentum than the other one. We have proven the 2m car has negative momentum. This option is not correct either
The fourth option shows the two carts keep separated after the collision, which contradicts the condition of the question regarding "they hook together".
The second option is the correct one because the mass has a negative momentum and then the sum of both masses keeps being negative
Answer:
the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
length of the string, L = 1.5 m
mass of the string, m = 0.002 kg
Tension of the string, T = 100 N
wavelength, λ = 1.5 m
The propagation velocity of the wave is calculated as;
Therefore, the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s
1 kg ball can have more kinetic energy than a 100 kg ball as increase in velocity is having greater impact on K.E than increase in mass.
<u>Explanation</u>:
We know kinetic energy can be judged or calculated by two parameters only which is mass and velocity. As kinetic energy is directly proportional to the and increase in velocity leads to greater effect on translational Kinetic Energy. Here formula of Kinetic Energy suggests that doubling the mass will double its K.E but doubling velocity will quadruple its velocity:
Better understood from numerical example as given:
If a man A having weight 50 kg run with speed 5 m/s and another man B having 100 kg weight run with 2.5 m / s. Which man will have more K.E?
This can be solved as follows:
It shows that man A will have more K.E.
Hence 1 kg ball can have more K.E than 100 kg ball by doubling velocity.
