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

4) Write down the transformation of energy in torch light.<br>​
Elenna [48]

Answer:

<u>The transformation of energy in a torch light is as follows:</u>

1) When the torch is turned ON, the chemical energy in the batteries is converted into electrical energy.

2) The electrical energy is converted into heat and light energy. (We feel the torch to be hot after some time and we can see the light energy)

Hope this helped!

Which action might lead scientists to develop new explanations about the
sweet [91]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Designing experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth

Explanation:

The proof to the hypothesis that life originated from inanimate inorganic, or non-living  molecules which is an explanation for the origin of life on Earth was provided by an experiment designed and performed in 1953 by Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey which consisted of using chemicals proposed in the hypothesis and combining them through a specific design process to replicate expected atmospheric condition before the life began on Earth.

With such successful design of experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth, it was possible to better explain the hypothesis that life originated from inorganic molecule.

A charge +1.9 μC is placed at the center of the hollow spherical conductor with the inner radius 3.8 cm and outer radius 5.6 cm.
Archy [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to load balancing. We will begin by defining what charges are acting inside and which charges are placed outside.

PART A)

The charge of the conducting shell is distributed only on its external surface. The point charge induces a negative charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell:

Q_{int}=-Q1=-1.9*10^{-6} C. This is the total charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell.

PART B)

The positive charge (of the same value) on the external surface of the conducting shell is:

Q_{ext}=+Q_1=1.9*10^{-6} C

The driver's net load is distributed through its outer surface. When inducing the new load, the total external load will be given by,

Q_{ext, Total}=Q_2+Q_{ext}

Q_{ext, Total}=1.9+3.8

Q_{ext, Total}=5.7 \mu C

A 5000-kg freight car runs into a 10,000-kg freight car at rest. They couple upon collision and move with a speed of 2 m/s. What
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

C) 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=5000 kg

The initial velocity of 5000 kg car =u₁

m₂=10,000 kg

The initial velocity of 10000 kg car =u₂ = 0 m/s

After collision the final speed of the both car,v = 2 m/s

There is no any external force on the system that is why linear momentum will be conserved.

Linear momentum P = m v

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m₁) v

5000 x u₁ + 10000 x 0 = (5000 + 10000) x 2

5000 x u₁ = 15000 x 2

5 x u₁ = 15 x 2

u₁ = 6 m/s

Therefore the answer is C.

C) 6 m/s

You breathe in more oxygen than you breathe out. And you breathe out more carbon dioxide than you breathe in.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

B. chemical only.

Explanation:

In the process of respiration which is a chemical process where organic compound is released. In this process exergonic reaction takes place in which compound changes into different ones.

Following are the two types of respiration:-

1] Aerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration requirement of oxygen is more and energy released is more.

2] Anaerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration oxygen requirement is less and energy released is also less.
