Answer:

v = 18.84 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of the string, r = 1.5 m (it will act as radius)

The rubber stopper makes 120 complete circles every minute.

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

It means, its frequency is 2 circles every second.

Let we need to find the average speed of the rubber stopper. It can be calculated as follows :

$v=\dfrac{d}{T}$

d is distance, $d=2\pi r$ and 1/T = f (frequency)

$v=2\pi rf\\\\=2\pi \times 1.5\times 2\\\\=18.84\ m/s$

So, the average speed of the rubber stopper is 18.84 m/s.

Elodia [21]

Explanation :

A power amplifier is used to amplify electric signals i.e. to increase the low power signal to higher powers.

A PNP transistor is connected in a circuit so that the collector-base junction remains reverse biased and the emitter-base junction is forward biased.

This transistor can be used as a power amplifier because it gives a much larger output current. The gain of an amplifier shows the amount of amplification. It is the difference between the input and the output signals.

What is the momentum of a 72 kg baseball player who slides into home plate

Alina [70]

Answer:

B) 350 kg m/s

Explanation:

momentum or p is given by the equation p= mxv

We have the mass and velocity so we can use the equation directly

p= 72kg x 4.9 m/s

p= 352.8 kg m/s

choli [55]

Answer:

A. Measurements are made with tools; observations are not

Explanation:

Measurement: <em>the assignment of numbers or codes according to prior-set rules. </em>

Observation: <em>data from an individual study subject or sampled unit.</em>

Measurement error: <em>differences between "true" answers and what appears on data collection instruments</em>

Two particles with masses 2m and 9m are moving toward each other along the x axis with the same initial speeds vi. Particle 2m i

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The final speed for the mass 2m is $v_{2y}=-1,51\ v_{i}$ and the final speed for the mass 9m is $v_{1f} =0,85\ v_{i}$ .

The angle at which the particle 9m is scattered is $\theta = -66,68^{o}$ with respect to the - y axis.

Explanation:

In an elastic collision the total linear momentum and the total kinetic energy is conserved.

<u>Conservation of linear momentum:</u>

Because the linear momentum is a vector quantity we consider the conservation of the components of momentum in the x and y axis.

The subindex 1 will refer to the particle 9m and the subindex 2 will refer to the particle 2m

$\vec{p}=m\vec{v}$

$p_{xi} =p_{xf}$

In the x axis before the collision we have

$p_{xi}=9m\ v_{i} - 2m\ v_{i}$

and after the collision we have that

$p_{xf} =9m\ v_{1x}$

In the y axis before the collision $p_{yi} =0$

after the collision we have that

$p_{yf} =9m\ v_{1y} - 2m\ v_{2y}$

so

$p_{xi} =p_{xf} \\7m\ v_{i} =9m\ v_{1x}\Rightarrow v_{1x} =\frac{7}{9}\ v_{i}$

then

$p_{yi} =p_{yf} \\0=9m\ v_{1y} -2m\ v_{2y} \\v_{1y}=\frac{2}{9} \ v_{2y}$

<u>Conservation of kinetic energy:</u>

$\frac{1}{2}\ 9m\ v_{i} ^{2} +\frac{1}{2}\ 2m\ v_{i} ^{2}=\frac{1}{2}\ 9m\ v_{1f} ^{2} +\frac{1}{2}\ 2m\ v_{2f} ^{2}$

so

$\frac{11}{2}\ m\ v_{i} ^{2} =\frac{1}{2} \ 9m\ [(\frac{7}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2}+ (\frac{2}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{2y} ^{2}]+ m\ v_{2y} ^{2}$

Putting in one side of the equation each speed we get

$\frac{25}{9}\ m\ v_{i} ^{2} =\frac{11}{9}\ m\ v_{2y} ^{2}\\v_{2y} =-1,51\ v_{i}$

We know that the particle 2m travels in the -y axis because it was stated in the question.

Now we can get the y component of the speed of the 9m particle:

$v_{1y} =\frac{2}{9}\ v_{2y} \\v_{1y} =-0,335\ v_{i}$

the magnitude of the final speed of the particle 9m is

$v_{1f} =\sqrt{v_{1x} ^{2}+v_{1y} ^{2} }$

$v_{1f} =\sqrt{(\frac{7}{9}) ^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2}+(-0,335)^{2}\ v_{i} ^{2} }\Rightarrow \ v_{1f} =0,85\ v_{i}$

The tangent that the speed of the particle 9m makes with the -y axis is

$tan(\theta)=\frac{v_{1x} }{v_{1y}} =-2,321 \Rightarrow\theta=-66,68^{o}$

As a vector the speed of the particle 9m is:

$\vec{v_{1f} }=\frac{7}{9} v_{i} \hat{x}-0,335\ v_{i}\ \hat{y}$

As a vector the speed of the particle 2m is:

$\vec{v_{2f} }=-1,51\ v_{i}\ \hat{y}$
