A woman stands on the edge of a cliff and throws a stone vertically downward with an initial speed of 10 m/s. The instant before

the stone hits the ground below, it has 450 J of kinetic energy. If she were to throw the stone horizontally outward from the cliff with the same initial speed of 10 m/s, how much kinetic energy would it have just before it hits the ground

Answer:

It will have the same KE ( 450 J ) just before it hits the ground. The GPE transferred to KE is the same in both cases and the original KE is the same in both cases so the total will be the same.

The one thrown sideways will take longer to get to the ground but it will have the   same   velocity ( and therefore KE ) as the       thrown down stone.

Ivenika [448]
Since the velocity of the real plane is 0, p=mv=0.  So the paper airplane actually has more momentum since it's value is not 0.

A 0.2 kg hockey puck moving at 80 m/s is caught by a 40 kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on the slide?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

V = 0.39 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hockey puck, m = 0.2 kg

Mass of goalie = 40 kg

Speed of hockey puck, v = 80 m/s

We need to find the speed with which the goalie slide on the slide. Let V be the speed. Using the conservation of momentum as follows :

mv=(M+m)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{M+m}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.2\times 80}{0.2+40}\\\\V=0.39\ m/s

So, the required speed is 0.39 m/s.

Object 1 has a momentum of 10 kg m/s and Object 2 has a momentum of 25 kg m/s. Will it be easier to change the direction of move
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

I think its object 1

Explanation:

Because the object that has more weight has a greater momentum and the lightest object that has a less momentum will be easier to change because its lighter.

Nearly monochromatic light of wavelength 420 nm is split in two beams. The first beam traveled 105 nm to the screen more than th
leva [86]

Answer:

phase difference = π / 2

constructive interference

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 420 nm

1st beam = 105 nm

path difference = 105 nm

to find out

phase difference  and interference pattern of the two beams

solution

we use here equation of phase difference that is

phase difference = 2π / wavelength × Δx

put here value

phase difference = 2π / 420 × 105

phase difference = π / 2

and

we know that  here path difference Δx is the integral multiple of the wavelength  so it will be constructive interference

Δx is wavelength / 4
