A block with a mass of 1kg moving at a velocity of 3m/s collides and sticks to a block of mass of 4kg initially at rest. What is

their velocity after the collision?

Vsevolod [243]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:using Newton third law

Let initial velocity of block be u1=3m/s

Mass of moving block m1 =1kg

Final velocity of block =V

Mass of stationary block m2= 4kg

Since they stick together, their final velocity will be the same.

m1u1 + m2u2=(m1+m2)v

(1*3)+(0*4)=(1+4)v

3=5v

Divide both sides by 5

V=0.6

Final velocity is 0.6m/s

A cork shoots out of a champagne bottle at an angle of 40.0 above the horizontal. If the cork travels a horizontal distance of 1
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The initial speed of the cork was 1.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of the horizontal position of the cork in function of time is the following:

x = x0 + v0 · t · cos θ

Where:

x = horizontal position at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial speed of the cork.

t = time.

θ = launching angle.

If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the launching point, then x0 = 0.

We know that at t = 1.25 s, x = 1.50 m. We also know the launching angle so we can solve the equation of horizontal position for the initial speed, v0:

x = v0 · t · cos θ

x / t · cos θ = v0

v0 = 1.50 m / (1.25 s · cos (40.0°)

v0 = 1.57 m/s

The initial speed of the cork was 1.57 m/s.

The spacing between the plates of a 1.0 μF capacitor is 0.050 mm. a) What is the surface area of the plates? b) How much charge
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

(a) surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(b) Charge on the capacitor is equal to 1.5\times 10^{-6}C

Explanation:

We have given spacing between the plates d = 0.05 mm = 5\times 10^{-5}m

Value of capacitance C=1\mu F=10^{-6}F

(A) Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is equal to C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

So 10^{-6}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times A}{10^{-5}}

A=1.129m^2

So surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(B) It is given that capacitor is charged by 1.5 volt

So voltage V = 1.5 volt

Charge on the capacitor is equal to Q=CV

So Q=1.5\times 10^{-6}C

The minimum stopping distance of a car moving at 20.5 mi/h is 11.6 m. Under the same conditions (so that the maximum braking for
pshichka [43]

Answer:

d = 69 .57 meter

Explanation:

First case

Speed of car ( v )  = 20.5 mi/h  = 9.164  M/S

distance ( d ) = 11.6 meter                                       ( m = mass of the car )

Work done = 0.5 m v²  = 0.5 * 9.164² * m J  = 41.99 m J

Force = ( workdone /distance ) = ( 41.99 m / 11.6 )   =  3.619 m N

Second case

v = 50.2 mi/h = 22.44135 m/s

d = ?

Work done = 0.5 * 22.44² * m J = 251.7768 * m J

Since the braking force remains the same .

3.619 m = ( 251.7768 m / d )

d = 69 .57 meter
