Two people travel from Columbus to Cleveland, one by car at an average velocity of 90km/h, and one by plane at an average veloci

ty of 300km/h. Can their displacements be equal
Physics

Flura [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , their displacement may be equal .

Suppose the displacement is AB where A is starting point and B is end point .

The car is covering the distance AB by going from A to B on straight line . On the other hand plane goes from A to C , then from C to D and then from D to B . In this way plane reaches B from A on a different path which is longer than path of the car . In the second case also displacement of plane is AB . In the second case distance covered is longer but displacement is same that is AB .

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can
lord [1]

Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly

Two billiard balls move toward each other on a table. The mass of the number three ball, m1, is 5 g with a velocity of 3 m/s. Th
Ymorist [56]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of momentum and velocity.

The velocity of the eight ball is "5.7 m/s".

According to the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = mass of number three ball = 5 g

m₂ = mass of the eight ball = 6 g

u₁ = velocity of the number three ball = 3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the eight ball = - 1 m/s (negative sign due to opposite direction)

v₁ = final velocity of the three number ball = - 5 m/s

v₂ = final velocity of the eight ball = ?

Therefore,

(5 g)(3 m/s) + (6 g)(- 1 m/s) = (5 g)(- 5 m/s) + (6 g)(v₂)

v_2=\frac{34\ g.m/s}{6\ g}\\\\

<u>v₂ = 5.7 m/s</u>

<u></u>
