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

Calculate the Poynting vector at the surface of the filament, associated with the static electric field producing the current an
Vesnalui [34]

We anticipate a constant Poynting vector of magnitude since the hot resistor will be emitting heat and none of the electric or magnetic fields will change over time.

S = P/A

  = I2R/ 2πrL

 = 332 kW/m2

Always pointing away from the wire, this Poynting vector.

<h3>What is the Poynting vector?</h3>

Describes the size and direction of the energy flow in electromagnetic waves using a Poynting vector. It bears the name of the 1884 invention of English physicist John Henry Poynting. It stands for the electromagnetic field's directional energy flux or power flow. The Poynting vector is significant in a static electromagnetic field because it determines the direction of energy flow in an electromagnetic field. This vector represents the radiation pressure of an electromagnetic wave and points in its direction of propagation.

As a space shuttle moves through the dilute ionized gas of Earth's ionosphere, the shuttle's potential is typically changed by -
postnew [5]

Answer:

-2.3 × 10^-9 Coulombs(C).

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or information or parameters that is going to help us to solve the problem effectively and efficiently;

=> " the shuttle's potential is typically changed by -1.4 V during one revolution. "

=> " Assuming the shuttle is a conducting sphere of radius 15 m".

So, in order to estimate the value for the charge we will be making use of the equation below:

Charge, C =( radius × voltage or potential difference) ÷ Coulomb's law constant.

Note that the value of Coulomb's law constant = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2.

So, charge = { 15 × (- 1.4)} / 9 x 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2.

= -2.3 × 10^-9 Coulombs(C).

Which of these has the least chemical energy?
madreJ [45]

The answer is option D a gallon of gasoline.

Explanation:

A gallon of gasoline has the least chemical energy. The energy content of gallon of gasoline is about 132,000 Btu. The gasoline produced is equivalent in energy terms to 4 kilowatt hours.

Gasoline has chemical potential energy stored in chemical bonds. Gasoline is called as gas or petrol, mixture of volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbons are used as fuel for internal- combustion engines. It is used as solvent for oils and fats.

Gasoline gallon equivalent is the alternative fuel taken to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline.
