Given that,
Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg
Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s
Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg
Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)
To find,
Mutual speed immediately after the collision.
Solution,
The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :
So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.
If bonds are broken, the energy is released, and if bonds are formed, energy is absorbed. During conversions from chemical energy to thermal energy, the energy stored in the chemical bonds are released and this energy causes surrounding molecules to move faster thus increasing the thermal energy of a substance.
Explanation:
Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg
Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s
mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg
Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :
initial momentum = final momentum
Since, initial momentum is zero. So,
So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
The answer is B!
Explanation: Energy stored in an object due to its position is Potential Energy. · Energy that a moving object has due to its motion is Kinetic Energy.
If the boat is floating, then it's just sitting there, and not accelerating
up or down. That means the vertical forces on it must be balanced.
So if its weight (acting downward) is 100 newtons, then the buoyant
force on it (acting upward) must also be 100 newtons.
