Define
m₁ = 0.650 kg the mass of the fish leaping to the right.
u₁ = 15.0 m/s is its velocity.
m₂ = 0.950 kg, the mass of the fish leaping to the left
u₂ = 13.5 m/s is its velocity.

Let v = the mutual velocity after inelastic impact.
For conservation of momentum,
m₁u₁ + m₂(-u₂) = (m₁+m₂)v
0.65*15 - 0.95*13.5 = (0.65 + 0.95)*v
v = - 3.075/1.6
   = - 1.9219 m/s 

The change in KE of the 0.65 kg fish is
(1/2)*(0.65 kg)*(15 + 1.9219)² = 93.06 J

Answer: 93.1 J

The change in the kinetic energy refers to the work done in displacing a body, thus, the change in the kinetic energy of an object refers to the work done on the object.
The correct formula to use is:
W = Initial kinetic energy - Final kinetic energy;
Where, W = change in kinetic energy
Final kinetic energy and initial kinetic energy = 1/2 MV^2
Initial velocity = 15 m/s
Final velocity  = 13.5 m/s
Initial mass = 0.650 kg
Final mass = 0.950 kg
W = 1/2 [0.650* (15 *15)] - 1/2 [0.950 * (13.5 * 13.5)]
W = 146.25 - 173.13 = 26.88
Therefore, the change in kinetic energy is 26.88 J.
 The negative sign has to be ignored, because change in kinetic energy can not be negative.

Two 0.2304 cm x 0.2304 cm square aluminum electrodes, spaced 0.5974 mm apart are connected to a 61 V battery. What is the charge
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The charge on each plate is 0.0048 nC

Explanation:

for the distance between the plates d and given the area of plates, A, and ε = 8.85×10^-12 C^2/N.m^2, the capacitance of the plates is given by:

C = (A×ε)/d

   =[(0.2304×10^-2)(0.2304×10^-2)×(8.85×10^-12))/(0.5974×10^-3)

   = 7.86×10^-14 F

then if the plates are connected to a battery of voltage V = 61 V, the charge on the plates is given by:

q = C×V

   = (7.86×10^-14)×(61)

   = 4.80×10^-14 C

   ≈ 0.0048 nC

Therefore, the charge on each plate is 0.0048 nC.

Oh lord help me please
Zina [86]

Answer: Friction

Explanation:

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object.

Answer:

the hypothalamus part of your brain sends a message to your body telling it to sweat.

When your internal temperature rises, your sweat glands release water to the surface of your skin.
