How can you increase the current in a circuit?

Projectiles that strike objects are good examples of inelastic collisions. A 0.1 kg nail driven by a gas powered nail driver col

Ratling [72]

In an inelastic collision, only momentum is conserved, while energy is not conserved.

1) Velocity of the nail and the block after the collision
This can be found by using the total momentum after the collisions:
$p_f=(m+M)v_f=4.8 kg m/s$
where
m=0.1 kg is the mass of the nail
M=10 kg is the mass of the block of wood
Rearranging the formula, we find $v_f$ , the velocity of the nail and the block after the collision:
$v_f= \frac{p_f}{m+M}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg+10 kg}= 0.48 m/s$

2) The velocity of the nail before the collision can be found by using the conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision is given only by the nail (since the block is at rest), and it must be equal to the total momentum after the collision:
$p_i = mv_i = p_f$
Rearranging the formula, we can find $v_i$ , the velocity of the nail before the collision:
$v_i = \frac{p_f}{m}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg}=48 m/s$

S A block of mass M is connected to a spring of mass m and oscillates in simple harmonic motion on a frictionless, horizontal tr

Elina [12.6K]

The period of oscillation is T = 2 * pi * sqrt ( ( m2/3 + m1) / k )

<h3>What is period of oscillation?</h3>

This is the time in seconds it takes to complete one oscillation. where an oscillation is a repetitive to and fro motion. period if the inverse of frequency and both are basic when calculation motion in simple harmonic motion.

The period of oscillation is given as T

T = 2 * pi * sqrt ( m / k )

where

m = mass on this case mass of the spring will be inclusive to the mass of the block such that we have:

m1 = mass of the block

m2 = mass pf the spring

k = force constant of the spring

including the two masses to the period gives

T = 2 * pi * sqrt ( ( m2/3 + m1) / k )

A floating boat has a weight of 100 N. What is the buoyant force on the boat?

lara31 [8.8K]

If the boat is floating, then it's just sitting there, and not accelerating
up or down. That means the vertical forces on it must be balanced.

So if its weight (acting downward) is 100 newtons, then the buoyant
force on it (acting upward) must also be 100 newtons.

Ivan pushes a dresser with full drawers across his carpeted floor. What could Ivan do to reduce the amount of friction between t

aniked [119]

Answer:

Place some smooth tiles under the dresser

Smooth surfaces, like smooth tile, are easy to slide over. They create very little friction. Rough surfaces like carpet create much more friction.

remove the drawers from the dresser

Weight affects friction in that friction is directly proportional to the weight of the load one is moving. So reduce the weight, reduce the friction.

Explanation:

Speed does not impact friction, so moving the dresser slower won't help. Wind has nothing to do with the scenario, so that's not a correct option.
