Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum conservation

$m2v_0+2mv_0=mv_1+2mv_2 \quad (1/m) \quad 4v_0=v_1+2v_2\\$

Kinetic energy conservation

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}m(2v_0)^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}2mv_2^2 \quad (1/m) \quad 6v_0^2=v_1^2+2v_2^2$

Solve the system

Answer:

$v_{2}=3.5 m/s$

Explanation:

Using the conservation of energy we have:

$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mgh$

Let's solve it for v:

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

So the speed at the lowest point is $v=7 m/s$

Now, using the conservation of momentum we have:

$m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}$

$v_{2}=\frac{1*7}{2}$

Therefore the speed of the block after the collision is $v_{2}=3.5 m/s$

I hope it helps you!

Two friends of different masses are on the playground. They are playing on the seesaw and are able to balance it even though the

Westkost [7]

Answer:

They are able to balance torques due to gravity.

$F_1 L_1 = F_2L_2$

Explanation:

When two friends of different masses will balance themselves on see saw then at equilibrium position the see saw will remain horizontal

This condition will be torque equilibrium position where the see saw will not rotate

Here we can say

$F_1 L_1 = F_2L_2$

here we know that force is due to weight of two friends

and their positions are different with respect to the lever about which see saw is rotating

since both friends are of different weight so they will balance themselves are different positions as per above equation

An object is thrown upward from the edge of a tall building with a velocity of 10 m/s. Where will the object be 3 s after it is

Alik [6]

We use a fundamental kinematic equation as follows:

V = Vo + g*t.
Tr = (V-Vo)/g = (0-10)/-10 = 1 s. = time to reach max. height 

Tf = Tr = 1 s. = Fall time or time to fall back to edge of bldg. 

3-Tr-Tf = 3-1-1 = 1 s. Below edge of bldg. 

d = Vo*t + 0.5g*t^2. 
d = 10*1 + 5*1^2 = 15 m. <---- OPTION C

Answer:

Pressure, P = 32666.66 Pa

Explanation:

It is given that,

Surface area of foot of Bimaba is 150 cm² or 0.015 m².

Her weight is 50 kg

We need to find the pressure does she exert on the ground, as she stands on her one foot. The force acting per unit area is called pressure. It can be given by :

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{50\times 9.8}{0.015}\\\\P=32666.66\ Pa$
