Answer: Elastic means that no energy is converted into heat during the collision so kinetic energy before and after the collision remains constant. In both elastic and inelastic collisions, momentum is always conserved.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

An active pendulum has the most kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing when the weight is moving fastest.

Explanation:

SO YOU HAVE THE LEAST KINETIC ENERGY AT THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE SWING WHEN IT'S NOT ACTIVE

Consider two waves defined by the wave functions y1(x,t)=0.50msin(2π3.00mx+2π4.00st) and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π6.00mx−2π4.00st). Wh

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Which copper wire would have the highest resistance?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Just consider the resistance as water flowing through a pipe. If the pipe is too small in radius (consider thin wire as small pipe) water can’t flow easly. If the pipe is big in radius (consider thick wire as big pipe) water can flow easly. So flowing water through a small pipe for a long distance will inversly affect the normal flow where as flowing water through a big pipe for a small distance will not affect too much the normal flow.

So long & thin wire has high resistance. Short & thick wire has low resistance.

B. A wire that is 2 m long and has a cross-sectional area of 0.066
