A 5 kg ball moving to the right at a speed of 6 m/s strikes another 4 kg

Physics

Dahasolnce [82]3 years ago

Answer:

The 5 kg ball moves 3.78 m/s to the left, and the 4 kg ball moves 7.22 m/s to the right.

Explanation:

Momentum before = momentum after

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(5 kg) (6 m/s) + (4 kg) (-5 m/s) = (5 kg) v₁ + (4 kg) v₂

10 m/s = 5 v₁ + 4 v₂

Assuming an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved.

½ m₁ u₁² + ½ m₂ u₂² = ½ m₁ v₁² + ½ m₂ v₂²

m₁ u₁² + m₂ u₂² = m₁ v₁² + m₂ v₂²

(5 kg) (6 m/s)² + (4 kg) (-5 m/s)² = (5 kg) v₁² + (4 kg) v₂²

280 m²/s² = 5 v₁² + 4 v₂²

Substituting:

v₂ = (10 − 5 v₁) / 4

280 = 5 v₁² + 4 [(10 − 5 v₁) / 4]²

280 = 5 v₁² + (10 − 5 v₁)² / 4

1120 = 20 v₁² + (10 − 5 v₁)²

1120 = 20 v₁² + 100 − 100 v₁ + 25 v₁²

0 = 45 v₁² − 100 v₁ − 1020

0 = 9 v₁² − 20 v₁ − 204

0 = (9 v₁ + 34) (v₁ − 6)

v₁ = -3.78 m/s or 6 m/s

u₁ = 6 m/s, so v₁ = -3.78 m/s.  Solving for v₂:

v₂ = (10 − 5 v₁) / 4

v₂ = 7.22 m/s

The 5 kg ball moves 3.78 m/s to the left, and the 4 kg ball moves 7.22 m/s to the right.

The index of refraction of silicate flint glass for red light is 1.620 and for violet light is 1.660 . A beam of white light in
Sonja [21]

Answer:

10.16 degrees

Explanation:

Apply Snells Law for both wavelenghts

\(n_{1}sin\theta_{1} = n_{2}sin\theta_{2}\)

For red

(1.620)(sin 25.5) = (1)(sin r)

For red, the angle is 35.45degrees

For violet

(1.660)(sin 25.5) = (1)(sin v)

For violet, the angle is 45.6 degrees

The difference is 45.6- 35.45 = 10.16 degrees

The force of attraction between a -165.0 uC and +115.0 C charge is 6.00 N. What is the separation between these two charges in m
Simora [160]

Answer:

  • The distance between the charges is 5,335.026 m

Explanation:

To obtain the forces between the particles, we can use Coulomb's Law in scalar form, this is, the force between the particles will be:

F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}

where k is Coulomb's constant, q_1 and q_2 are the charges and d is the distance between the charges.

Working a little the equation, we can take:

d^2 = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{F}

d = \sqrt{ k \frac{q_1 q_2}{F}}

And this equation will give us the distance between the charges. Taking the values of the problem

k= 9.00 \ 10^9 \frac{N \ m^2}{C^2} \\q_1 = 165.0 \mu C \\q_2 = 115.0 C\\F=- 6.00

(the force has a minus sign, as its attractive)

d = \sqrt{ 9.00 \ 10^9 \frac{N \ m^2}{C^2} \frac{(165.0 \mu C) (115.0 C)}{- 6.00 \ N}}

d = \sqrt{ 9.00 \ 10^9 \frac{N \ m^2}{C^2} \frac{(165.0 \mu C) (115.0 C)}{- 6.00 \ N}}

d = \sqrt{ 28,462,500 \ m^2}}

d = 5,335.026 m

And this is the distance between the charges.
