Two basketballs of equal mass are rolling toward each other at constant velocities. The first basketball (B1) has a velocity of
slamgirl [31]

v'_2 = \frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2} (4.3) - \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3)\\\\v'_1 = \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3) + \frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Velocity of B₁ = 4.3m/s

Velocity of B₂ = -4.3m/s

For perfectly elastic collision:, momentum is conserved

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = m_1v'_1 + m_2v'_2

where,

m₁ = mass of Ball 1

m₂ = mass of Ball 2

v₁ = initial velocity of Ball 1

v₂ = initial velocity of ball 2

v'₁ = final velocity of ball 1

v'₂ = final velocity of ball 2

The final velocity of the balls after head on elastic collision would be

v'_2 = \frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2} v_1 - \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} v_2\\\\v'_1 = \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} v_1 + \frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2} v_2

Substituting the velocities in the equation

v'_2 = \frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2} (4.3) - \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3)\\\\v'_1 = \frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3) + \frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2} (4.3)

If the masses of the ball is known then substitute the value in the above equation to get the final velocity of the ball.

Define , gravitational acceleration
Vitek1552 [10]
The simplest answer would be "acceleration due to gravity." 

The exact value of this acceleration changes depending on which planet your on (for example).

Where do scientists believe the missing carbon is going? Why are they not sure?
White raven [17]

Answer:  Scientists believe the missing carbon has found a sink in the Northern Forest. Scientist have come up with this idea because they believe consequences of global warming contributed to significant extent to the northern forest carbon sinking processes. In addition to that, scientists describe a process where the oceans of the world sink carbon to create a balance of the ecosystem. That is why they are not 100% sure.

Pascal in term fundamental unit is? ​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: SI unit of pressure

Explanation: The pascal (pronounced pass-KAL and abbreviated Pa) is the unit of pressure or stress in the International System of Units (SI). Reduced to base units in SI, one pascal is one kilogram per meter per second squared; that is, 1 Pa = 1 kg · m-1 · s-2.

Hope this helps! Have a fantastic rest of ur day, luv!

A ball is dropped from a rooftop 60m high. <br> How long is the ball in the air?
alina1380 [7]

Answer: 3.49 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equation of motion:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0 m is the final height of the ball

y_{o}=60 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=0 m/s is the initial velocity (the ball was dropped)

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleratio due gravity

t is the time

Isolating t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}} (2)

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (60 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} (3)

Finally we find the time the ball is in the air:

t=3.49 s (4)
