Consider a system of two particles: ball A with a mass m is moving to the right a speed 2v and ball B with a mass 3m is moving t

o the left at a speed v. In the time interval before the two balls collide, what is the magnitude and the direction of the velocity of the center of mass of this system?

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

System of two particle

Ball A has mass

Ma = m

Ball A is moving to the right (positive x axis) with velocity of

Va = 2v •i

Ball B has a mass

Mb = 3m

Ball B is moving to left (negative x axis) with a velocity of

Vb = -v •i

Velocity of centre of mass Vcm?

Velocity of centre of mass can be calculated using

Vcm = 1/M ΣMi•Vi

Where M is sum of mass

M = M1 + M2 + M3 +...

Therefore,

Vcm=[1/(Ma + Mb)] × (Ma•Va +Mb•Vb

Rearranging for better understanding

Vcm = (Ma•Va + Mb•Vb) / ( Ma + Mb)

Vcm = (m•2v + 3m•-v) / (m + 3m)

Vcm = (2mv — 3mv) / 4m

Vcm = —mv / 4m

Vcm = —v / 4

Vcm = —¼V •i

Why would an egg break immediately when it hits the ground?
Elza [17]

As an egg falls towards the floor, it begins to travel faster and faster. When it slams into the floor, the egg is stopped almost immediately. This force of the floor against the eggshell is too large, so it breaks.

As a way of determining the inductance of a coil used in a research project, a student first connects the coil to a 5.62 V batte
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Its inductance L = 166 mH

Explanation:

Since a current, I = 0.698 A is obtained when a voltage , V = 5.62 V is applied, the resistance of the coil is gotten from V = IR

R = V/I = 5.62/0.698 = 8.052 Ω

Since we have a current of I' = 0.36 A (rms) when a voltage of V' = 35.1 V (rms) is applied, the impedance Z of the coil is gotten from

V₀' = I₀'Z where V₀ = maximum voltage = √2V' and I₀ = maximum current = √2I'

Z = V'/I' = √2 × 35.1 V/√2 × 0.36 V = 97.5 Ω

WE now find the reactance X of the coil from

Z² = X² + R²

X = √(Z² - R²)

= √(97.5² - 8.05²)

= √(9506.25 - 64.8025)

= √9441.4475

= 97.17 Ω

Now, the reactance X = 2πfL where f = frequency of generator = 93.1 Hz and L = inductance of coil.

L = X/2πf

= 97.17/2π(93.1 Hz)

= 97.17 Ω/584.965 rad/s

= 0.166 H

= 166 mH

Its inductance L = 166 mH
