Answer:

The puck B remains at the point of collision.

Explanation:

This is an elastic collision, so both momentum and energy are conserved.

The mass of both pucks is m.

The velocity of puck B before the collision is vb.

The velocity of puck A and B after the collision is va' and vb', respectively.

Momentum before = momentum after

m vb = m vb' + m va'

vb = vb' + va'

Energy before = energy after

½ m vb² = ½ m vb'² + ½ m va'²

vb² = vb'² + va'²

Substituting:

(vb' + va')² = vb'² + va'²

vb'² + 2 va' vb' + va'² = vb'² + va'²

2 va' vb' = 0

va' vb' = 0

We know that va' isn't 0, so:

vb' = 0

The puck B remains at the point of collision.

An experiment is designed to see if sleep affects the number of vocabulary words subjects can remember. The dependent variable i

Kaylis [27]

The dependent variable is: "number of vocabulary words subjects can remember"

<h3>Which is the dependent variable?</h3>

In an experiment, we basically see how changing one variable affects another variable.

In this case, the experiment is:

" if sleep affects the number of vocabulary words subjects can remember."

Then the hours of sleep would be the independent variable (the one that the scientist can change) and the number of vocabulary words subjects can remember is the dependent variable (that depends on the independent variable).

So the correct answer is:

"number of vocabulary words subjects can remember"

We have a toy gun with a spring constant of 50 N/m. The spring is compressed by 0.2 m. If you neglect friction and the mass of t

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}$

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by $Us=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ , where $k$ is the spring constant of the spring and $x$ is displacement from point of equilibrium.

When released, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ is the object's velocity.

Thus, we have:

$Us=KE,\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Substituting given values, we get:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\cdot 0.2^2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.002\cdot v^2,\\v^2=\frac{50\cdot 0.2^2}{0.002},\\v^2=1000,\\v\approx \boxed{31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}}$

A truck traveled 400 meters north in 80 seconds and then it traveled 300 meters east in 70 seconds. The magnitude of the average

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

3.3m/s

Explanation:

You first get the total time (80 + 70 = 150s).

Then you would find the displacement of the truck. To do that you would do component method (vector addition), so since its a right triangle (North and East), displacement is 400^2 + 300^2 = d^2.

d= 500m.

So now that you have displacement and time, you can find the velocity:

v=d/t

v=500/150

v=3.3

Aliya deposited half as much money in a savings account earning 1.9% simple interest as she invested in a money market account t

yanalaym [24]

Let A be the amount of money that Aliya deposited in the savings account. Since A is half as much as money as she invested in a money market account, then the amount that she invested in the market account is 2A.

Express the interest that Aliya earned in terms of A. Set it equal to the amount of $297.60 and then solve for A.

Since the savings account gives 1.9% simple interest, the total amount of interest that she will earn from the savings account is 1.9% of A, which is equal to:

$\frac{1.9}{100}\times A$

Since the money market account gives 3.7% simple interest, the total amount of interest that she will earn from the money market account, is 3.7% of 2A, which is equal to:

$\frac{3.7}{100}\times2A$

Add both interests in terms of A and simplify the expression:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1.9}{100}\times A+\frac{3.7}{100}\times2A \\ =\frac{1.9}{100}\times A+\frac{7.4}{100}\times A \\ =(\frac{1.9}{100}+\frac{7.4}{100})\times A \\ =\frac{1.9+7.4}{100}\times A \\ =\frac{9.3}{100}\times A \end{gathered}$

The expression (9.3/100)*A represents the total interest after one year. Then:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{9.3}{100}\times A=297.60 \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{100}{9.3}\times297.60 \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{100\times297.60}{9.3} \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{29760}{9.3} \\ \Rightarrow A=3200 \end{gathered}$

Use the value of A to find the amount that was invested in the money market account:

$2A=2\times3200=6400$

Therefore, Aliya deposited 3200 in a savings account and 6400 in a money market account.
