A cue ball, moving with 9.0 N·s of momentum strikes the nine-ball at rest. The nine-ball moves off with 2.0 N·s in the original

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

P = 7.28 N.s

Explanation:

given,

initial momentum of cue ball in x- direction,P₁ = 9 N.s

momentum of nine ball in x- direction, P₂ = 2 N.s

momentum in perpendicular direction i.e. y - direction,P'₂ = 2 N.s

momentum of the cue after collision = ?

using conservation of momentum

in x- direction

P₁ + p = x + P₂

p is the initial momentum of the nine balls which is equal to zero.

9 + 0 = x + 2

x = 7 N.s

momentum in x-direction.

equating along y-direction

P'₁ + p = y + P'₂

0 + 0 = y + 2

y = -2 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to resultant of the momentum .

$P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

$P = \sqrt{7^2+(-2)^2}$

P = 7.28 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to P = 7.28 N.s

Raindrops hitting the side windows of a car in motion often leave diagonal streaks even if there is no wind. Why? Is the explana

labwork [276]

Answer:

because of the raindrop velocity relative of the car has a vertical and horizontal component

Explanation:

The car moves in a <em>horizontal direction </em>relative to the ground. The raindrops fall in the <em>vertical direction</em> relative to the ground.
Their velocity relative to the moving car has both vertical and horizontal components and this is the reason for the diagonal streaks on the side window.
The diagonal streaks on the windshield arise from a different reason.
The drops are pushed off to one side of the windshield because of air resistance.

The microwaves in a certain microwave oven have a wavelength of 12.2 cm. How wide must this oven be so that it will contain five

leva [86]

Answer:

$l = 0.305 \ m$

$f = 3.0*10^{11} \ Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 12.2 \ cm = 0.122 \ m$

The number of antinodal planes of the electric field considered is n = 5

The width is mathematically represented as

$l = \frac{ n \lambda}{2}$

$l = \frac{5 * 0.122 }{ 2}$

$l = 0.305 \ m$

Generally the frequency the errors was made is mathematically represented as

$f = \frac{c}{\lamda_k}$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m/s$

$\lambda_k$ is the wavelength of the microwave has to be in order for there still to be five antinodal planes of the electric field along the width of the oven, which is mathematically represented as
