Answer: v = 4.4 m/s
Explanation:
In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy will be constant
KE₀ + PE₀ = KE₁ + PE₁
0 + mg(6) = ½mv₁² + mg(5)
½mv₁² = mg(6 - 5)
v = √(2g(1)) = 4.4 m/s
Answer:
Earth: 22.246 N
Moon: 3.71 N
Jupiter: 58.72 N
Explanation:
The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.
To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.
5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg
On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N
Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N
Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N
Answer:
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.
Being 
and 
the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is
Since b is initially at rest
After the collision and being 
and 
the respective velocities, the total momentum is
Both momentums are equal, thus
Solving for 
The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)
The final kinetic energy is
The change of kinetic energy is
Force=mass*acceleration
F=ma
F=25*5
F=100 N
Your answer should be 9.7 :)
