Answer:

-1m/s

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of block A after collision

According to collision theory:

MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)

Substitute the given values

5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)

15+0 = 5Va + 20

5Va = 15-20

5Va = -5

Va = -5/5

Va = -1m/s

Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s

Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary

Questions E6 a& b and E7 a&b?
erica [24]

Explanation:

6a) Work = force × distance

W = Fd

W = (60 N) (10 m)

W = 600 J

6b) Change in energy = work

ΔKE = 600 J

7a) Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the velocity.

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (0.4 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = 125 J

7b) Work = change in energy.  When the ball is stopped, it has zero kinetic energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 J − 125 J

W = -125 J

In a lab experiment, a student is trying to apply the conservation of momentum. Two identical balls, each with a mass of 1.0 kg,
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Second Trial satisfy principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

Given mass of ball A and ball B =\ 1.0\ Kg.

Let mass of ball A and B\ is\ m  

Final velocity of ball A\ is\ v_1

Final velocity of ball B\ is\ v_2

initial velocity of ball A\ is\ u_1

Initial velocity of ball B\ is\ u_2

Momentum after collision =mv_1+mv_2

Momentum before collision = mu_1+mu_2

Conservation of momentum in a closed system states that, moment before collision should be equal to moment after collision.

Now, mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2

Plugging each trial in this equation we get,

First Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(1)+1(-2)=1(-2)+1(-1)\\1-2=-2-1\\-1=-3

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Second Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1.5)=1(-.5)+1(-.5)\\.5-1.5=-.5-.5\\-1=-1

moment before collision = moment after collision

Third Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(2)+1(1)=1(1)+1(-2)\\2+1=1-2\\3=-1

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Fourth Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1)=1(1.5)+1(-1.5)\\.5-1=1.5-1.5\\-.5=0

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

We can see only Trial- 2 shows the conservation of momentum in a closed system.

Describe the gravity and magnetic separation technique using sand as an example​
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Gravity separation is an industrial method of separating two components, either a suspension, or dry granular mixture where separating the components with gravity is sufficiently practical: i.e. the components of the mixture have different specific materials and Magnetic separations take advantages of natural magnetic properties between minerals in feed. The separation is between economic ore constituents, noneconomic contaminants and gangue. and saw dust can be separated by gravity separation method. The process can be used for separating insoluble substances which are heavier than liquid by allowing them to settle down on their own due to gravity. The mixture of sand and iron can be separated from each other by using a magnet. Iron gets attracted towards a magnet leaving behind the sand.

What Is rotational force ​
zaharov [31]
A rotational force, also known as a torque, depends upon the force and where that force is applied; torque = lever arm x force. The lever arm is the perpendicular distance from the force to the axis of rotation.
