Answer:

69.62 minutes

Explanation:

From the information we have here,

1 byte is = 8 bits

So 1 megabyte = 8 megabits

Then

783.216 x 8 megabits = 6265.728 megabits

This player has its reading capacity at 1.5 megabits / second

So 1 minute = 60x1.5

= 90 megabits / min

Then we have the entire reading time of this CD player to be =

6265.728/90

= 69.62 minutes.

Answer:

2.9 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum will be conserved

Speed of the ball just before collision is

v = √2gh = √(2(9.8)(0.8)) = 3.96 m/s

The initial momentum is 1.3(3.96) = 5.15 kg•m/s

The block takes away momentum of 0.6(2.2) = 1.32 kg•m/s

Leaving the ball with momentum of 5.15 - 1.32 = 3.83 kg•m/s

vf(ball) = 3.83 / 1.3 = 2.946... ≈ 2.9 m/s
