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

In a simple harmonic motion, when the displacement from the equilibrium position is at its maximum,
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

When the displacement in the harmonic motion is maximum then kinetic energy at the maximum point is minimum and the potential energy is maximum at that point.  

So, when the displacement is maximum, spring force magnitude is also maximum because the force is proportional to the displacement and also the magnitude of the acceleration is maximum so, the net force is also maximum.

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is  \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the point charge is  q_1 =  70 \ nC  =  70 *10^{-9} \  C

      The diameter of the rubber shell is  d = 32 \ cm  =  0.32 \ m

       The Electric field inside the rubber shell is  E =  2500 \ N/ C

The radius of the rubber is  mathematically evaluated as

              r =  \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{0.32}{2}  =  0.16 \ m

Generally the electric field for a point  is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

         E =  \frac{Q}{ \epsilon }  *  \frac{1}{4 *  \pi r^2}

Where \epsilon is the permittivity of rubber

    =>     E  *  \epsilon  *  4 * \pi *  r^2 =  Q

   =>      \epsilon  =  \frac{Q}{E *  4 *  \pi *  r^2}

substituting values

            \epsilon  =  \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 *  4 *  3.142 *  (0.16)^2}

            \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

A sports car skids off of a wet mountain road at 48.5 m/s and lands in the river, 110
Oxana [17]

Answer:

  about 4.74 seconds

Explanation:

The time to fall distance d from height h is given by ...

  t = √(2d/g)

  t = √(2·110 m/(9.8 m/s^2)) ≈ 4.74 s

It will take the car about 4.74 seconds to fall 110 meters to the river.

__

We assume the car's speed is horizontal, so does not add or subtract anything to/from the time to fall from the height.
