During a circus act, an elderly performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of

72.0 kg and its horizontal component of velocity is 6.50 m/s just before the 65.0 kg performer catches it. If the performer is initially motionless on nearly frictionless roller skates, what is his speed immediately after catching the cannon ball

Answer:

3.416 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of cannonball m_A = 72.0 kg

mass of performer m_B = 65.0 kg

The horizontal component of the ball initially \mu_{xA} = 6.50 m/s

the final velocity of the combined system v = ????

By applying the linear momentum of conservation:

m_A \mu_{xA}+m_B \mu_{xB} = (m_A+m_B) v

72.0 \ kg \times 6.50 \ m/s+65.0 \ kg \times 0 = (72.0 \ kg+65.0 \ kg) v

468 kg m/s + 0 = (137 kg)v

v = \dfrac{468\  kg m/s }{137 \ kg}

v = 3.416 m/s

Why is figure 5 an unhelpful visualization tool for this data set? <br><br> Please help!
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
faust18 [17]

Answer:

9)a

10) I think true

11)b

Explanation:

9)a. because it's told that the car is slowing down, the sum of the forces that are towards left, should be more than the ones that are towards right. if the car was gaining speed, "b" would have been correct. and if it was told that the car is moving without a change in the speed, "c" would have been correct.

10) if a moving object has a change of speed or direction, it would have an acceleration. now if a moving object experiences an unbalanced force, it'd either slow down, gain speed or change direction, and in all of the three possibilities it'd have an acceleration.

11) upward and downward forces are equal, and the sum of them would be 0N(because they have opposite directions). so they negate each other.

and the rightward force is 5N more than the leftward force. so the Net Force would be 5N.

-30+30-10+15=5N

if it is unclear or you need more explanation, ask freely.

What is the period of a wave traveling 5 m/s if its wavelength is 20 m/s
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Speed of wave is given as

v = 5 m/s

Wavelength of the wave is given as

\lambda = 20 m

now from the formula of wave time period we can say

speed = \frac{wavelength}{time period}

5 = \frac{20}{T}

T = \frac{20}{5}

T = 4 s

so it will have time period of T = 4 s

1. If a fast-moving car making a loud noise approaches and moves past the person, what will happen as the distance between the t
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
<span>So we want to know what will happen when the fast moving car that is making loud noise that is initially approaching the person, passes the person and starts to move away. So Doppler effect is a phenomenon where when the source of a sound is approaching a person, the person hears the sound as higher than if the source was standing still with respect to the person because the wavelength is getting shorter, and as the source is moving avay from the person the sound is getting deeper because the wavelength is getting longer. So the correct answer is A. </span>
