Answer:

(a) the total momentum of the system before the collision = -2m kg.m/s.

(b) the total momentum of the system after the collision = -2m kg.m/s.

(c) puck 1's velocity after the collision in component form = (5.44 i, 2.54 j)

Explanation:

Given;

mass of Puck 1 , = m

mass of Puck 2, = m (since they have the same mass m)

initial velocity of Puck 1, u₁ = 10 m/s to the left

initial velocity of Puck 2, u₂  = 8 m/s to the right

Let the rightward direction be positive direction

Let the leftward direction be negative direction

(a) the total momentum of the system before the collision;

P₁ = (initial momentum of Pluck 1) + (initial momentum of Pluck 2)

P₁ = (-mu₁) + mu₂

P₁ = mu₂ - mu₁

P₁ = m(u₂ - u₁)

P₁  = m(8 - 10)

P₁  = -2m kg.m/s

(b) the total momentum of the system after the collision;

Based on the principle of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision.

Thus, the total momentum of the system after the collision is -2m kg.m/s.

(c) puck 1's velocity after the collision in component form

v = (v_x, v_y)\\\\v = (vcos \theta , vsin \theta)\\\\v = (6cos 25^0 , 6sin25^0)\\\\v = (5.44i, 2.54j)m/s

How do you calculate average speed?
Mila [183]

Divide
       (the distance covered in some period of time)
by
       (the time taken to cover the distance).

The quotient is the average speed during that period of time.

Which of the following describes the motion of water waves?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The answer is below!

Explanation:

Water waves are an example of waves that involve a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions. As a wave travels through the waver, the particles travel in clockwise circles. The radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases

Hope I helped!!
