In a carrom game, a striker weighs three times the mass of the other pieces, the carrom men and the queen, which each have a mas

s M. You shoot the striker with a speed V at the queen (which is at the center of the board) directly parallel to the rail that runs along the xaxis, hoping to pocket the queen in the bottom right corner. Assume the carrom board has edges that lay along the x- and y-axes and the board itself is in quadrant I and that the collision is elastic. If you make the shot, what is the relative velocity of the queen with respect to the striker after the collision?

Answer:

The relative velocity of the queen is -vy

Explanation:

If the collision is elastic, thus e = 1. The expression is equal:

e=\frac{relative-velocity-of-approach}{relative-velocity-of-separation} \\relative-velocity-of-approach=relative-velocity-of-separation

The relative velocity of separation is:

relative velocity of separation = 0 - vy = -vy

This expression means that:

velocity of queen - velocity of strikes = -vy

Thus the relative velocity of the queen with respect to the striker is equal to -vy

Answer:

- The final velocity of the queen is (3/2) of the initial velocity of the striker. That is, (3V/2)

- The final velocity of the striker is (1/2) of the initial velocity of the striker. That is, (V/2)

Hence, the relative velocity of the queen with respect to the striker after collision

= (3V/2) - (V/2)

= V m/s.

Explanation:

This is a conservation of Momentum problem.

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision.

The mass of the striker = M

Initial Velocity of the striker = V (+x-axis)

Let the final velocity of the striker be u

Mass of the queen = (M/3)

Initial velocity of the queen = 0 (since the queen was initially at rest)

Final velocity of the queen be v

Collision is elastic, So, momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

Momentum before collision = (M)(V) + 0 = (MV) kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (M)(u) + (M/3)(v) = Mu + (Mv/3)

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision.

MV = Mu + (Mv/3)

V = u + (v/3)

u = V - (v/3) (eqn 1)

Kinetic energy balance

Kinetic energy before collision = (1/2)(M)(V²) = (MV²/2)

Kinetic energy after collision = (1/2)(M)(u²) + (1/2)(M/3)(v²) = (Mu²/2) + (Mv²/6)

Kinetic energy before collision = Kinetic energy after collision

(MV²/2) = (Mu²/2) + (Mv²/6)

V² = u² + (v²/3) (eqn 2)

Recall eqn 1, u = V - (v/3); eqn 2 becomes

V² = [V - (v/3)]² + (v²/3)

V² = V² - (2Vv/3) + (v²/9) + (v²/3)

(4v²/9) = (2Vv/3)

v² = (2Vv/3) × (9/4)

v² = (3Vv/2)

v = (3V/2)

Hence, the final velocity of the queen is (3/2) of the initial velocity of the striker and is in the same direction.

The final velocity of the striker after collision

= u = V - (v/3) = V - (V/2) = (V/2)

The relative velocity of the queen withrespect to the striker after collision

= (velocity of queen after collision) - (velocity of striker after collision)

= v - u

= (3V/2) - (V/2) = V m/s.

Hope this Helps!!!!

(b) A car of mass 3000 kg travels at a constant velocity of 5.0 m/s.
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

16.7 s

Explanation:

T= <u>Vf - Vo</u>          a= <u>F</u>

         a                    m

4,500 / 3000 = 1.5 (a)

30 - 5 / 1.5(a) = 16.7 s

How would the magnetic field lines appear for a bar magnet cut at the midpoint, with the two pieces placed end to end with a spa
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole,

Explanation:

In magnetism the magnetic mono-poles are not found, this means that we do not have magnetic charges alone, therefore when cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole, the magnetic lines go from the North pole to the South pole, see attached.

The density of the lines is approximately the intensity of the magnetic field.

Replacing an object attached to a spring with an object having 14 the original mass will change the frequency of oscillation of
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

<em>The frequency changes by a factor of  0.27.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The frequency of an object with mass m attached to a spring is given as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

where f is the frequency

k is the spring constant of the spring

m is the mass of the substance on the spring.

If the mass of the system is increased by 14 means the new frequency becomes

f_{n} = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{14m} }

simplifying, we have

f_{n} = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{14} } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

f_{n} = \frac{1}{3.742*2\pi  } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

if we divide this final frequency by the original frequency, we'll have

==> \frac{1}{3.742*2\pi  } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  ÷  \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

==> \frac{1}{3.742*2\pi  } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  x  2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

==> 1/3.742 = <em>0.27</em>

At some airports there are speed ramps to help passengers get from one place to another. A speed ramp is a moving conveyor belt
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

It will take you 30.8 s to travel the 120 m of the ramp.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation for the position of an object moving in a straight line is:

x = x0 + v * t

Where:

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v = velocity

t = time

In this case, we will consider the start of the ramp as the origin of our reference system so that x0 = 0.

Now, let´s calculate the speed of the person walking on the ground:

x = v * t

120 m = v * 72 s

v = 120 m / 72 s

v = 1.7 m/s

If you walk on the ramp with that speed, your total speed will be your walking speed plus the speed of the ramp because both are in the same direction. Then, using the equation for the position:

x = v * t

In this case, v = speed of the ramp + walking speed

v = 2.2 m/s + 1.7 m/s = 3.9 m/s

120 m = 3.9 m/s * t

t = 120 m / 3.9 m/s = 30.8 s

It will take you 30.8 s to travel the 120 m
