Answer:

The correct option is;

D. The kinetic energy decreases by 3·m₀·v₀²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of object X = m₀

The initial velocity of object X = v₀

The mass of object Y = 2·m₀

The initial velocity of object Y = -2·v₀

By conservation of linear momentum, we have;

The total initial momentum = The total final momentum

Therefore, we have;

The total initial momentum = m₀·v₀ - 2·m₀·2·v₀ = The total final momentum

∴ The total final momentum = -3·m₀·v₀

The total mass of the two object after sticking together = 2·m₀ + m₀ = 3·m₀

Therefore, the velocity of the two objects after collision = (The total final momentum)/(Total mass) = -3·m₀·v₀/(3·m₀) = -v₀

The kinetic energy = 1/2 × Mass × (Velocity)²

Therefore, the kinetic energy after collision = 1/2 × (3·m₀) × v₀² = 3·m₀·v₀²/2

The kinetic energy before collision = 1/2 × m₀ × v₀² + 1/2 × (2·m₀) × (2·v₀)² = (1/2 + 4) × (m₀·v₀²)

∴ The kinetic energy before collision =  9·(m₀·v₀²)/2

The change in kinetic energy = The kinetic energy after collision - The kinetic energy before collision = 3·m₀·v₀²/2 - 9·(m₀·v₀²)/2 = -3·m₀·v₀²

Therefore, the kinetic energy decreases by 3·m₀·v₀².

hoa [83]

Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

diameter = 4 mm

shutter speed = 1/1000 s

diameter of aperture = ?

shutter speed = 1/250 s

exposure time to the shutter time

E V = log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t})

N is the diameter of the aperture and t is the time of exposure

now,

log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t_1})=log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t_2})

\dfrac{N_1^2}{t_1}=\dfrac{N_2^2}{t_2}

inserting all the values

\dfrac{4^2}{1000}=\dfrac{N_2^2}{250}

      N₂² = 4

      N₂ = 2 mm

hence , the correct answer is option E
