A bowling ball of mass 5.8 kg moves in a straight line at 4.34 m/s How fast must a Ping-Pong ball of mass 2.214 g move in a stra
lilavasa [31]

Answer: 11369.46 m/s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

m_{1}=5.8 kg is the mass of the bowling ball

V_{1}=4.34 m/s is the velocity of the bowling ball

m_{2}=2.214 g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.002214 kg is the mass of the ping-pong ball

V_{2} is the velocity of the ping-pong ball

Now, the momentum p_{1} of the bowling ball is:

p_{1}=m_{1}V_{1} (1)

p_{1}=(5.8 kg)(4.34 m/s)  

p_{1}=25.172 kg m/s (2)

And the momentum p_{2} of the ping-pong ball is:

p_{2}=m_{2}V_{2} (3)

If the momentum of the bowling ball is equal to the momentum of the ping-pong ball:

p_{1}=p_{2} (4)

m_{1}V_{1}=m_{2}V_{2} (5)

Isolating V_{2}:

V_{2}=\frac{m_{1}V_{1}}{m_{2}} (6)

V_{2}=\frac{25.172 kg m/s}{0.002214 kg} (7)

Finally:

V_{2}=11369.46 m/s

A 61 kg skater is traveling at 2.5 m/s while carrying a 4.0 kg bowling ball. After he throws the bowling ball forward at twice t
gregori [183]

The final velocity of the skater is 2.34 m/s forward

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the system before and after the ball is thrown must be conserved, in absence of external forces.

Before the ball is thrown, the total momentum is:

p_i = (M+m)u

where

M = 61 kg is the mass of the skater

m = 4.0 kg is the mass of the ball

u = 2.5 m/s (forward) is the combined velocity of the skater and the ball

After, the ball is thrown at twice the velocity, so the final total momentum is

p_f = MV+mv

where

V is the final velocity of the skater

v = 2(2.5) = 5.0 is the final velocity of the ball

Since the total momentum must be conserved, we can write

p_i = p_f\\(M+m)u = MV+mv\\V=\frac{(M+m)u-mv}{M}=\frac{(61+4.0)(2.5)-(4.0)(5.0)}{61}=2.34 m/s

So, the skater is moving at 2.34 m/s (forward) after the shot.

Because white dwarfs are small, as their name implies, they are hard to see. What is a way astronomers have to find white dwarfs
Bumek [7]

Astronomers find white dwarfs that distinguish them from main sequence stars because white dwarfs get really hot, we can search for their ultraviolet radiation.

<h3>What is a white dwarf?</h3>

A white dwarf is a very hot star that radiated much energy in the form of ultraviolet radiation.

This UV radiation is initially very bright and then these stars become red with time.

In conclusion, Astronomers find white dwarfs they can search for their ultraviolet radiation.
