<span>Genes do play a role in the development of obesity but a genetically predisposed person can still improve his overall health through moderate lifestyle changes.</span>
<span>Obese people may change their weight slowly by altering lifestyle habits with the support of their family and friends. Even if weight remains unchanged, overall health will improve with moderate lifestyle changes.</span>
Oil sticks to birds preventing them from flying. Whales and dolphins and other creatures that use blow holes can get oil into their respiratory system, making it difficult to breathe. Animals can also ingest the oil. This can be fatal and/or deadly in the short or long term.
4.) We are told that ball A is travelling from right to left, which we will refer to as a positive direction, making the initial velocity of ball A, +3 m/s. If ball B is travelling in the opposite direction to A, it will be travelling at -3 m/s. The final velocity of A is +2 m/s. Using the elastic collision equation, which uses the conservation of linear momentum, we can solve for the final velocity of B.
MaVai + MbVbi = MaVaf + MbVbf
Ma = 10 kg and Mb = 5 kg are the masses of balls A and B.
Vai = +3 m/s and Vbi = -3 m/s are the initial velocities.
Vaf = +2 m/s and Vbf = ? are the final velocities.
(10)(3) + (5)(-3) = (10)(2) + 5Vbf
30 - 15 = 20 + 5Vbf
15 = 20 + 5Vbf
-5 = 5 Vbf
Vbf = -1 m/s
The final velocity of ball B is -1 m/s.
5.) We are now told that Ma = Mb, but Vai = 2Vbi
We can use another formula to look at this mathematically.
Vaf = [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(2Mb/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi
Since Ma = Mb we can simplify this formula.
Vaf = [(0)/2Ma]Vai + [2Ma/2Ma]Vbi
Vaf = Vbi
Vbf = [(2Ma/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi
Vbf = [2Mb/2Mb]Vai + [(0)/2Mb]Vbi
Vbf = Vai
Vaf = Vbi
Vbf = 2Vbi
If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of A will be equal to the initial velocity of B.
If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of B will be twice the initial velocity of B.
