A billiard ball is moving in the x-direction at 30.0 cm/s and strikes another billiard ball moving in the y-direction at 40.0 cm

/s. As a result of the collision, the first ball moves at 50.0 cm/s, and the second ball stops. In what final direction does the first ball move?

Answer:

53.13 °

Explanation:

In order to do this, we just need to apply the following:

tanα = Dy/Dx

Where:

Vy: speed of the ball in the y axis.

Vx: speed of the ball in the x axis.

At this point we do not need the speed of the first ball after the collision because in that moment is already heading in the direction that we are looking for. Therefore, we just need to use the innitial data to calculate the direction which the first ball will go.

According to this, then:

tanα = (40/30)

tanα = 1.3333

α = tan⁻¹(1.3333)

<h2>α = 53.13°</h2>

This means that the final direction of the first ball is 53.13° and in the x axis because the starting momentum of this ball in the x axis has not dissapeared.

Hope this helps

Tpy6a [65]

Angular acceleration = (change in angular speed) / (time for the change)

Change in angular speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

For this fan, speed at the end = 7700 rpm, speed at the end = 0 .

Change in angular speed = -7700 rpm

Angular acceleration = (-7700 rpm) / (2.5 sec)

<em>Angular acceleration = -3,080 rev per minute / sec</em>

That's a perfectly good and true answer to the question, but the units are ugly.  We really need to fix the units, and convert them into something prettier before we hand in this assignment.

1 rev = 2π radians, and

1 minute = 60 seconds .

So

Angular acceleration =

(-3,080 rev/min-sec) · (2π rad/rev) · (1 min/60 sec)

AngAccel = (-3,080 · 2π · 1 / 60) · (rev·rad·min / min·sec·rev·sec)

AngAccel = ( -102 and 2/3 · π) · (rad/s²)

<em>AngAccel = -322.5 radian/s²</em>

Compare and contrast the health benefits and the amount of physical or mental energy needed between active leisure activities an
dolphi86 [110]
This is the answer "Some active leisure activities, such as yoga and running, require a great deal of physical energy, while other activities, like playing chess, require a substantial amount of mental energy. Passive leisure activities, such as watching TV or going to the movies, require little to no physical or mental energy. Because of the exertion of physical or mental energy, active leisure activities have more health benefits than passive leisure activities." hope it help you?:)

The block slides on a horizontal frictionless surface. The block has a mass of 1.0kg and is pushed 5.0N at 45°. What is the magn
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

3.5\:\mathrm{m/s^2}

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law is given as \Sigma F = ma.

To find the acceleration in the horizontal direction, you need the horizontal component of the force being applied.

Using trigonometry to find the horizontal component of the force:

\cos 45^{\circ}=\frac{x}{5},\\\frac{\sqrt{2}}{{2}}=\frac{x}{5},\\x=\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}

Use this horizontal component of the force to solve for for the acceleration of the object:

\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}=1.0\cdot a,\\a=\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\approx \boxed{3.5\:\mathrm{m/s^2}}

Please help me TT. I need this to be submitted soon TT. Thank you​
Verizon [17]

Answer:

1)

a) f = 1m × 2 × (5A / √2) × (5A / √2) / 0.003m = 0.00166... (66 is repeating)

b) The currents on two wires on a AC chord are always moving in opposite direction and so they are always replusing.

c) There needs to be a sheath to dampen the replusing, fluctuating force of the wires.

2)

a) v = √(  ( (-2)(-1.6 × 10^(-16))(3000V) ) / (2.84 × 10^(-20)kg) ) = 5.81227 × 10^3

b) Any ion transversing a chamber having a magnetic field will deflect.

c) The direction of the electric field is vertical because it's perpendicular to the plates. The electric field magnitude is independent from the magnitude of the magnetic field and charge. So it's not possible to find the magnitude of the electric field, without knowing the voltage on the plates, the distance between the plates, and the dielectric constant.

d) Assuming the mangetic field remained, the path of the negative ions will be deflected vertically given that the magnetic field is horizontally perpendicular to the negative charged ions movement.  

Sorry it took so long :) If anything is incorrect please let me know.
