The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.
Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.
For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
Answer:
vận tốc bằng quãng đường chia thời gian
Explanation:
v=s/t
The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.
<h3>
Final speed of the pin</h3>
The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;
m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2
where;
- m is the mass of the objects
- u is the initial speed of the objects
- v is the final speed of the objects
4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2
5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2
5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2
3.6 = 0.4v2
v2 = 3.6/0.4
v2 = 9 m/s
Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.
