Ball X of mass 1.0 kg and ball Y of mass 0.5kg travel toward each other on a horizontal surface. Both balls travel with a consta

nt speed of 5 m/s until they collide. During the collision, ball Y exerts an average force with a magnitude of 40N for 1/6s on ball X . Which of the following best predicts ball momentum after the collision?
A. Ball Y will travel at a speed less than 5 m/s in the same direction of travel as before the collision.
B. Ball Y will travel at a speed less than 5 m/s in the opposite direction of travel as before the collision.
C. Ball will travel at a speed greater than 5 m/s in the same direction of travel as before the collision.
D. Ball Y motion cannot be predicted because the impulse on it is not known.

Answer:

B. Ball Y will travel at a speed less than 5 m/s in the opposite direction of travel as before the collision.

Explanation:

Impulse created by ball Y  on ball X = 40 x 1/6 Ns

Ball X will also create impulse 40 / 6 on ball Y .

impulse = change in momentum .

impulse in Y = change in momentum in Y .

Initial momentum of Y  = .5 x 5 = 2.5

Let final velocity of Y after collision be v  in opposite direction .

change in momentum of Y = v - (-2.5 )

so,

v + 2.5 = 40 / 6 =  6.67

v =  4.17 m / s .

Option B is correct .

B. Ball Y will travel at a speed less than 5 m/s in the opposite direction of travel as before the collision.

All waves must ____ have to travel through
babunello [35]
<h2>All waves must ____ have to travel through </h2>

Explanation:

Wave

It is the periodic disturbance in a medium.

Types of Wave

There are two types of wave in general depending upon their propagation through a substance.

• Mechanical  

• Electromagnetic  

Mechanical Wave

It is the kind of wave which needs medium to travel. For example: Sound Wave  

That means sound can be heard only whenever there is presence of certain substance like water, glass, air etc .It can’t be heard in vacuum no matter how loud is the sound.

Electromagnetic Wave

Is that which can travel through medium as well as through vacuum. For example: Light  

But unlike sound, light can be seen through a substance or in vacuum. That is the reason it is referred as electromagnetic wave.

A train whose proper length is 1200 m passes at a high speed through a station whose platform measures 900 m, and the station ma
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

0.66c

Explanation:

Use length contraction equation:

L = L₀ √(1 − (v²/c²))

where L is the contracted length,

L₀ is the length at 0 velocity,

v is the velocity,

and c is the speed of light.

900 = 1200 √(1 − (v²/c²))

3/4 = √(1 − (v²/c²))

9/16 = 1 − (v²/c²)

v²/c² = 7/16

v = ¼√7 c

v ≈ 0.66 c
