A 1.3-kg ball is attached to the end of a 0.8-m string to form a pendulum. This pendulum is released from rest with the string h

orizontal. At the lowest point of its swing, when it is moving horizontally, the ball collides with a 0.6-kg block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. The speed of the block just after the collision is 2.2 m/s. What is the speed of the ball just after the collision

Answer:

2.9 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum will be conserved

Speed of the ball just before collision is

v = √2gh = √(2(9.8)(0.8)) = 3.96 m/s

The initial momentum is 1.3(3.96) = 5.15 kg•m/s

The block takes away momentum of 0.6(2.2) = 1.32 kg•m/s

Leaving the ball with momentum of 5.15 - 1.32 = 3.83 kg•m/s

vf(ball) = 3.83 / 1.3 = 2.946... ≈ 2.9 m/s

blondinia [14]

Answer:

In an electromagnetic wave in free space, the ratio of the magnitudes of electric and magnetic field vectors E and B is equal:  <u>speed of light(c) </u>

Explanation:

Generally the ratio of the E(electric field ) and  the B(magnetic field ) is  equal to the speed of the electromagnetic wave i.e the speed of  light (c) the value is

    c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

Infer whether a circuit breaker should be connected in parallel to the circuit that it is protecting.
Alla [95]
A circuit breaker is to be connected in series in the circuit it is to protect.
Explanation:
Let us understand why do we need circuit breakers.
Circuit breaker is a protective device which will break the circuit in case of emergency like the appliance gets short or the wiring may get shorted in between. Also it is provided to cut-off electricity to a specific part of wiring in a house/building etc. for non-emergency situations, say for the purpose of maintenance.
Invariably it is placed in series with the live wire at the switch board or circuit breaker box, so that as soon as circuit breaker trips/switched off, no electrical wiring in the circuit it is protecting should remain live.
The mains circuit breaker is placed in series with the wiring of the dwelling unit and the Electricity incoming point of the Electric Supply Company.
The remaining circuit breakers are connected in parallel to each other to various distribution points/rooms. If connected in series, it will be impossible to isolate a section/part of circuit.
However, each circuit breaker is to be connected in series in the part circuit it is to protect.

A woman steps in front of a child to keep him from running off. which term best describes this example? negative work positive w
lana [24]

Answer:

negative force

Explanation:

Here woman is applying the force to stop the child or to prevent him from running.

Here we know that the force applied by the woman is opposite to the motion of child but here the child is not displaced by this applied force but the child is only prevented his running.

So here the work done by the woman is zero as there is no displacement by this force.

But here we can say that the the force of woman is against the motion of child so here this force is opposite force and hence it is termed as negative force here.

so correct answer will be

negative force
