Answer: 3 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: during the collision between the two balls, the total momentum of the system before the collision and after the collision must be conserved:
The total momentum before the collision is given only by the cue ball, since the solid ball is initially at rest, therefore
So, the final total momentum will also be
And the total momentum after the collision is given only by the solid ball, since the cue ball is now at rest, therefore:
from which we find the velocity of the solid ball
Consider 20 deg.C. as room temperature.
From tables,
Silver has a resistivity of 1.6*10^-8 ohm-m at 20 deg.C, and it increases by 0.0038 ohm-m per deg.K increase.
Therefore if the temperature rise above 20 deg.C is T, then silver will have resistivity of
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) ohm-m
At room temperature, the resistivity of tungsten (from tables) is 5.6*10^-8.
The resistivity of silver will be 4 times that of tungsten (at room temperature) when
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) = 4*5.6*10^-8
1 + 0.0038T = 14
T = 13/.0038 = 3421 deg.K approx
Answer: 20 + 3421 = 3441 °C
Potential Energy= 24m * 14kg * 9.8N/kg = 3292.8J
The answer should be copper. hope this helps :D
