Answer:

Elastic Collision

Inelastic Collision

The total kinetic energy is conserved. The total kinetic energy of the bodies at the beginning and the end of the collision is different.

Momentum does not change. Momentum changes.

No conversion of energy takes place. Kinetic energy is changed into other energy such as sound or heat energy.

Highly unlikely in the real world as there is almost always a change in energy. This is the normal form of collision in the real world.

An example of this can be swinging balls or a spacecraft flying near a planet but not getting affected by its gravity in the end.

A passenger walks from one side of a ferry to the other as it approaches a dock.Passenger's velocity is 1.55 m/s due north relat

victus00 [196]

Answer: $\theta =33.22^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given

Velocity of Passenger w.r.t to Ferry

$v_{pf}=v_p-v_f=1.55\hat{j}$ -------1

Velocity of Passenger w.r.t to water

$v_{pw}=v_p-v_w=4.5\left ( -\hat{i}+\hat{j}\right )$ --------2

Subtract 2 from 1

$v_f-v_w=-4.5\hat{i}+2.95\hat{j}$

(b)direction

$tan\theta =\frac{2.95}{4.5}=0.655$

$\theta =33.22^{\circ}$ North of west

A floating object oscillates up and down 2 complete cycles in 1 second as a water wave of wavelength 5 meters passes by. The spe

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by

$v=\lambda f$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

f is the frequency

For the wave in this problem,

- The frequency is given by the number of oscillations per second, so

$f=\frac{2 cycles}{1 s}=2 Hz$

- The wavelength is

$\lambda=5 m$

So, the wave speed is

$v=(5 m)(2 Hz)=10 m/s$

Name three types of energy that exist in a large piece of charcoal on a grill in the sunlight. Explain why the charcoal has each

qaws [65]

Answer:

A large piece of charcoal on a grill in the sunlight (if it's burning) will consist of the following types of energy:

Chemical
Heat and
Light

Explanation:

Charcoal is basically carbon which is produced when wood is heated strongly in the absence of oxygen. From a chemistry point of view, charcoal contains combustible carbon whose chemical formula is C. Sometimes, $H_{2}O$ which is water may be found in it but in very small units.

All matter contains Heat energy. Charcoal is not an exception. As the charcoal burns, the heat energy is produced along with Light energy.

Light comes in many forms such as Infrared rays, Xrays, Visible Spectrum light, etc.

The glow which the coal gives off fall under the visible spectrum of light.
