Two ice skaters, each with a mass of 72.0 kg, are skating at 5.45 m/s when they collide and stick together. If the angle between

Answer:

The skater 1 and skater 2 have a final speed of 2.02m/s and 2.63m/s respectively.

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to go back to the theory of conservation of momentum, specifically in relation to the collision of bodies. In this case both have different addresses, consideration that will be understood later.

By definition it is known that the conservation of the moment is given by:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v_f$

Our values are given by,

$m_1=m_2=72Kg$

As the skater 1 run in x direction, there is not component in Y direction. Then,

Skate 1:

$v_{x1}=5.45m/s$

$v_{y1}=0$

Skate 2:

$v_{x2} = 5.45*cos105= -1.41m/s$

$v_{y2} = 5.45*sin105 = 5.26m/s$

Then, if we applying the formula in X direction:

m_1v_{x1}+m_2v_{x2}=(m_1+m_2)v_{fx}

75*5.45-75*1.41=(75+75)v_{fx}

Re-arrange and solving for v_{fx}

v_{fx}=\frac{4.04}{2}

v_{fx}=2.02m/s

Now applying the formula in Y direction:

$m_1v_{y1}+m_2v_{y2}=(m_1+m_2)v_{fy}$

$0+75*5.25=(75+75)v_{fy}$

$v_{fy}=\frac{5.25}{2}$

$v_{fy}=2.63m/s$

Therefore the skater 1 and skater 2 have a final speed of 2.02m/s and 2.63m/s respectively.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre

Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

$R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega$

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}$

Using the formula

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$

$R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega$

$V=IR$

Substitute the values

$V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V$

$I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A$

$I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A$

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Kinetic Energy and the Energy Produced by the heat loss. In mathematical terms kinetic energy can be described as:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
