Answer: The ability to move or change an object or what a wave carries is called Energy

Explanation: Waves are disturbances in physical quantities. Example of waves are light waves, sound waves, or transverse oscillations of a string. These disturbances use energy to create and propagate, for it to move the constituent particles or change the electric or magnetic fields. Therefore, power of a wave is therefore, energy transported divided by unit time caused by the oscillations of a particular wave. The derivation of a formula for the power depends on the medium -- for light waves, the power is measured by the pointing vector, whereas for oscillations on a string, the power can be computed directly by balancing forces through the application of newton law. However, for all types of waves, the formula and physical meaning of the power takes similar forms, typically depending on the square amplitude of the waves among other factors.

A body of mass 2.7 kg makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but w

kramer

Answer:

1.35 kg

2.67 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

$m_{1}$ = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

$m_{2}$ = mass of second body = ?

$v_{1i}$ = initial velocity of the first body before collision = $v$

$v_{2i}$ = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

$v_{1f}$ = final velocity of the first body after collision =

using conservation of momentum equation

$m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) v + m_{2} (0) = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} ) + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) (\frac{2v}{3} ) = m_{2} v_{2f}\\v_{2f} = \frac{1.8v}{m_{2}}$

Using conservation of kinetic energy

$m_{1} v_{1i}^{2}+ m_{2} v_{2i}^{2} = m_{1} v_{1f}^{2} + m_{2} v_{2f}^{2} \\(2.7) v^{2} + m_{2} (0)^{2} = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} )^{2} + m_{2} (\frac{1.8v}{m_{2}})^{2} \\(2.7) = (0.3) + \frac{3.24}{m_{2}}\\m_{2} = 1.35$

$m_{1}$ = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

$m_{2}$ = mass of second body = 1.35 kg

$v_{1i}$ = initial velocity of the first body before collision = 4 ms⁻¹

$v_{2i}$ = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

Speed of the center of mass of two-body system is given as

$v_{cm} = \frac{(m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i})}{(m_{1} + m_{2})}\\v_{cm} = \frac{((2.7) (4) + (1.35) (0))}{(2.7 + 1.35)}\\\\v_{cm} = 2.67$ ms⁻¹

Help quick<br> p;leaseeeeeeeeeeee its about direction and magnitude

KonstantinChe [14]

Explanation:

The net force of each square is the combination of the forces in each direction. The direction is the... direction the square would go in due to the net force. The magnitude of the net force is how large it is. So if you had a force pushing 2N to the left and 1N to the right, then the net force would be 1N to the left; because the two oppose eachother. If they were going in the same direction, then they'd add to each other. And perpendicular net forces (like one pushing up and another pushing left) can create net forces in diagonal directions.

I'm not going to do all of these for you because they're basically all the same thing and it's good practice for you anyway. But I'll do the first three just so you can get the idea:

1. The net force's magnitude is 4N and it's direction is to the right.

2. The net force's magnitude is 4N and it's direction is to the left.

3. The net force's magnitude is 0N and it has no direction because they are equal forces acting in opposite directions.
