Resultant is 5 m/s using the Pythagorean theorem<span />
Answer:
48.6°
Explanation:
The forward force, F equals the component of the weight along the slope.
So mgsinθ = ma where a = acceleration and θ = angle between the slope and the horizontal.
So a = gsinθ
Since we are given that a = 75%g = 0.75g,
0.75g = gsinθ
sinθ = 0.75
θ = sin⁻¹(0.75)
= 48.6°
Explanation:
Given
initial speed(u)=3 m/s
mass of each ball is m
Let the cue ball is moving in x direction initially
In elastic collision Energy and momentum is conserved
Let u be the initial velocity and
be the final velocity of 8 ball and cue ball respectively

The angle after which cue ball is deflected is given by

Conserving momentum in x direction


Along Y axis


substitute the value of 
we get 

Power = Work/Time
Convert 5 min to seconds and divide 2150J by that number.
Its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy.
