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.

Which statement describes the magnetic field inside a bar magnet? It points from north to south. It points from south to north.
Levart [38]

Inside the bar magnet, the magnetic field points from north to south. Statement A is correct.

Magnetic Field:

It is defined as a vector field or the influence of the magnet on the electric current, charges and ferromagnetic substance.

The strength of magnetic field is depends up on the numbers of magnetic field lines per unit area.

  • Magnetic field lines emerge from the North pole and end in the South pole of a bar magnet.
  • Inside the magnet are also present inside the bar magnet and never intersect at any point.

Therefore, inside the bar magnet, the magnetic field points from north to south.

A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?
12345 [234]

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.
