Answer: the mass of the second ball is 2.631 kg

Explanation:

Given that;

m1 = 0.877 kg

Initial velocity = V0

Initial momentum = m1 × V0

final velocity of m1 is u1, final velocity of m2 is u2 = v0/2

now final momentum = m1 × u1 + m2 × u2

using momentum conservation;

m1×V0 = m1×u1 + m2×v0/2

m1×(v0 - u1) = m2×V0/2 ----- let this be equation 1

Now, for elastic collision;

m1×v0²/2 = m1×u1²/2 + m2×(v0/2)²/2

m1×(v0² - u1²) = m2×(v0/2)² --------- let this be equation 2

now; equation 2 / equation 1

: V0 + u1 = v0/2

2V0 + 2u1 = V0

2u1 = V0 - 2V0

u1 = -V0/2

now we insert in equ 1

 m1×3V0/2= m2×V0/2

m1 × 3 = m2

m2 = 0.877 × 3

m2 = 2.631 kg

Therefore, the mass of the second ball is 2.631 kg

a ball is thrown inclined in to the air with a initial velocity of u. if it reaches the maximum height in 6 seconds , find the r
olga55 [171]

Answer:

11:1

Explanation:

At constant acceleration, an object's position is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Given y₀ = 0, v₀ = u, and a = -g:

y = u t − ½g t²

After 6 seconds, the ball reaches the maximum height (v = 0).

v = at + v₀

0 = (-g)(6) + u

u = 6g

Substituting:

y = 6g t − ½g t²

The displacement between t=0 and t=1 is:

Δy = [ 6g (1) − ½g (1)² ] − [ 6g (0) − ½g (0)² ]

Δy = 6g − ½g

Δy = 5½g

The displacement between t=6 and t=7 is:

Δy = [ 6g (7) − ½g (7)² ] − [ 6g (6) − ½g (6)² ]

Δy = (42g − 24½g) − (36g − 18g)

Δy = 17½g − 18g

Δy = -½g

So the ratio of the distances traveled is:

(5½g) / (½g)

11 / 1

The ratio is 11:1.

A closely wound circular coil has a radius of 6.00 cmand carries a current of 2.65 A. How many turns must it have if the magneti
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Given:

radius of the coil, R = 6 cm = 0.06 m

current in the coil, I = 2.65 A

Magnetic field at the center, B = 6.31\times 10^{4} T

Solution:

To find the number of turns, N, we use the given formula:

B = \frac{\mu_{o}NI}{2R}

Therefore,

N = \frac{2BR}{\mu_{o}I}

N = \frac{2\times 6.31\times 10^{4}\times 0.06}{4\pi \times 10^{- 7}\times 2.65}

N = 22.74 = 23 turns (approx)

How are magnetic poles and electrical charges similar? A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract
melomori [17]

Answer:

A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract each other.

Explanation:

As we know by the property of electric charge that similar charges repel each other and opposite charges attracts each other

So here we have similar situation in magnets also

Two similar poles or like poles of magnet i.e. North - North poles or South - South poles always repel each other

And also we can see that opposite poles of magnet each other i.e. North pole and south pole always attract each other.

SO here correct answer is

A. Their same forces repel each other, and their opposite forces attract each other.

How are light waves used to bring far away objects into view and how does the eye translate them?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

When focused light is projected onto the retina, it stimulates the rods and cones. The retina then sends nerve signals are sent through the back of the eye to the optic nerve. The optic nerve carries these signals to the brain, which interprets them as visual images.
