A hockey puck with a mass of 0.17 kg is traveling to the right along the ice at 15 m/s. it strikes a second hockey puck with a m

ass 0.11 kg. the first hockey puck comes to rest after the collision. What is the velocity of the second hockey puck after the collision? ( Round your answer to the nearest integer.)

Answer:

$v_2 = 23.182m/s$

Explanation:

Given

$m_1 = 0.17kg$

$m_2 = 0.11kg$

$u_1 = 15m/s$ -- Initial Velocity of the first

$u_2 = 0m/s$ -- Initial Velocity of the second

$v_1 = 0m/s$ -- Final Velocity of the first

Required

Determine the final velocity of the second hockey puck ( $v_2$ )

This question illustrates law of conservation of momentum and it'll be solved using the following formula:

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2$ ---- law of conservation of momentum

Substitute in the right values

$0.17 * 15 + 0.11*0 = 0.17 * 0 + 0.11*v_2$

$0.17 * 15 + 0 = 0 + 0.11*v_2$

$2.55 = 0.11*v_2$

Solve for v2

$v_2 = 2.55/0.11$

$v_2 = 23.182m/s$

<em>Hence, the final velocity of the second hockey puck is 23.182m/s</em>

Determine the kinetic energy of a 1000 kg roller coaster car that is moving with speed of 40.0 m/s

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

KE=800,000

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2 or Kinetic Energy= 0.5*mass*velocity^2

so 1000 is the mass and 40 is the velocity

KE=0.5*1000*40^2

KE=0.5*1,000*1,600

KE=800,000 Joules

In 8.4 s a fisherman winds 2.9 m of fishing line onto a reel whose radius is 3.0 cm (assumed to be constant as an approximation)

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The angular speed of the reel is 11.33 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

The fisherman takes t = 8.4 s to wind distance x = 2.9 m into a circle radius of r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Than the tangencial speed equals the change in the distance to the time

v = $\frac{x}{t}$ = $\frac{2.9 m}{8.4 s} = 0.34 \frac{m}{s}$

Knowing the tangencial velocity is proportional to the radius r and the angular velocity

v = r*w

w = $\frac{0.34 m/s}{0.03 m} = 11.33 \frac{rad}{s}$

a bicycle accelerates at 1 m/s² from an initial velocity of 4 m/s² for 10s. Find the distance moved by it during this interval o

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

90 m

Explanation:

Acceleration, $a=\frac {v-u}{t}$ where v and u are final and initial velocities respectively, t is the time taken

Substituting $1 m/s^{2}$ for a, 4 m/s for u and 10 s for t then

1*10=v-4

v=14 m/s

From kinematic equations

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as$

Making s the subject then

$s=\frac {v^{2}-u^{2}}{2a}=\frac {14^{2}-4^{2}}{2\times 1}=90 m$

<em>F</em> = 153 N

$\theta = 11.3°$

Explanation:

Let us define first our directional convention. Anything pointing up or to the right is considered positive and anything pointing down or to the left is considered negative. Now let's look at the components $F_{x}$ and $F_{y}$ :

$F_{x}$ = 350 N - 200 N = 150 N

$F_{y}$ = 180 N - 150 N = 30 N

The magnitude of the resultant force <em>F</em> is given by

$F = \sqrt{F_{x}^{2}+F_{y}^{2}}$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:= \sqrt{(150\:N)^{2}+(30\:N)^{2}}$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:=153\:N$

To find the direction $\theta$ , we use

$\tan \theta = \dfrac{F_{y}}{F_{x}}=\dfrac{30\:N}{150\:N}=0.2$

or

$\theta = \tan^{-1}(0.2) = 11.3°$
