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.

A package of mass 5 kg sits on an airless asteroid of mass 7.6 × 1020 kg and radius 8.0 × 105 m. We want to launch the package i
Effectus [21]

Answer:

s =  1.7 m

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

Mass of package (m) = 5 kg

mass of the asteriod (M) = 7.6 x 10^{20} kg

radius = 8 x 10^5 m

velocity of package (v) = 170 m/s

spring constant (k) = 2.8 N/m

compression (s) = ?

Assuming that no non conservative force is acting on the system here, the initial and final energies of the system will be the same. Therefore  

• Ei = Ef

• Ei = energy in the spring + gravitational potential energy of the system

• Ei = \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + \frac{GMm}{r}

• Ef = kinetic energy of the object

• Ef = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + (-\frac{GMm}{r}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• s = \sqrt{\frac{m}[k}(v^{2}+\frac{2GM}{r})}

s = \sqrt{\frac{5}[2.8 x 10^5}(170^{2}+\frac{2 x 6.67 x10^{-11} x 7.6 x 10^{20}}{8 x 10^5})}

s =  1.7 m

A 20-N force acts on an object with a mass of 2.0kg. what is the objects acceleration?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

10 m/s^2

Explanation:

Equation: F = ma.

a = acceleration

m = mass

F = force

Because we are trying to find acceleration instead of force we want to rearrange the equation to solve for a which is F/m = a.

F = 20

m = 2

a = ?

a = F/m

a = 20/2

a = 10 m/s^2

<span>The manipulation of natural sounds via the medium of magnetic tape is called "</span>Musique concrete".

Musique concrete refers to an experimental method of melodic composition utilizing recorded sounds as crude material. The strategy was created around 1948 by the French composer Pierre Schaeffer and his partners at the Studio d'Essai ("Experimental Studio") of the French radio framework. The major guideline of musique concrète lies in the collection of different regular sounds recorded on tape (or, initially, on plates) to deliver a montage of sound.
