A 2.0 kg block of ice with a speed of 8.0 m/s makes an elastic collision with another block of ice that is at rest. The first bl

ock of ice proceeds in the same direction as it did initially, but with a speed of 2.0 m/s. What is the mass of the second block? (Hint: Use the conservation of kinetic energy to solve for the second unknown variable.)

Answer:

6kg

Explanation:

According to conservation of kinetic energy

m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses of the bodies

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Given

m1 =2kg

u1 = 8.0m/s

m2 = ?

u2 = 0m/s (second ice at rest)

v = 2.0m/s

Substitute into the formula

2(8)+m2(0) = (2+m2)(2)

16+0 = 4+2m2

16-4= 2m2

12 = 2m2

m2 =12/2

m2 = 6kg

Hence the mass of the second block is 6kg

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer: 9.9%

Explanation: efficiency = (work output /work input) × 100

Note that, 1 kilocalorie = 4184 joules, hence 22kcal = 22× 4184 = 92048 joules.

Work output = 9200 j and work input = 92048 j

Efficiency = (9200/92048) × 100 = 0.099 × 100 = 9.9%

What is impulse? How does this relate to momentum?
lawyer [7]
Impulse is a force acting briefly on a body and producing a finite change of momentum.
This relates to momentum because impulse is a change in momentum. Impulse = momentum. Since force is a vector quantity, impulse is also a vector in the same direction. Impulse applied to an object produces equivalent vector change in its linear momentum, also in the same direction. m•(triangle)v

What is a newton defined as<br>​
slava [35]

Answer:

Newton, absolute unit of force in the International System of Units (SI units), abbreviated N. It is defined as that force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one metre per second per second.
