Answer:
34.6 m/s
Explanation:
From conservation of momentum, the sum of initial and final momentum are equal. Momentum is a product of mass and velocity. Initial mass will be 42.8+31.5+25.9=100.2 kg
Final mass will be 31.5+25.9=57.4 kg
From formula of momentum
M1v1=m2v2
Making v2 the subject of the formula then
Substitute 100.2 kg for M1, 19.8 m/s fkr v1 and 57.4 kg for m2 then
Answer:
5 ms-2
Explanation:
F = ma
F = 100N
m = 20kg ( you should make sure the unit is kg before you answer the question)
100 = 20a
a = 100÷ 20
a = 5 ms-2

I know i did part a correctly. heres what i did: momentum is conserved: m1 * u - m2 * u = m2 * v or (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v Also, for an elastic head-on collision, we know that the relative velocity of approach = relative velocity of separation (from conservation of energy), or, for this problem, 2u = v Then (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * 2u m1 - m2 = 2 * m2 m1 = 3 * m2 m1 is the sphere that remained at rest (hence its absence from the RHS), so m2 = 0.3kg / 3 m2 = 0.1 kg b) this part confuses me, heres what i did (m1 - m2) * u = m2 * v (.3kg - .1kg)(2.0m/s) = .1kg * v .4 kg = .1 v v = 4 m/s What my teacher did: (.3g - .1g) * 2.0m/s = (.3g + .1g) * v I understand the left hand side but i dont get the right hand side. Why is m1 added to m2 when m1 is at rest which makes its v = zero?? v = +1.00m/s since the answer is positive, what does that mean? Also, if v was -1.00m/s what would that mean? thanks!
