Why do we add the masses together after that inelastic collision?

Physics
1 answer:
fomenos3 years ago
5 0

Answer:An inelastic collision is one in which the internal kinetic energy changes (it is not conserved). A collision in which the objects stick together is sometimes called perfectly inelastic because it reduces internal kinetic energy more than does any other type of inelastic collision.People sometimes think that objects must stick together in an inelastic collision. However, objects only stick together during a perfectly inelastic collision. Objects may also bounce off each other or explode apart, and the collision is still considered inelastic as long as kinetic energy is not conserved.

hope this helps have a nice day❤️

Olin [163]

3.75 N

Explanation:

F = k(q)(q)/r^2 = 5 N

F' = k(q)(3q)/(2r)^2

= k×3(q)(q)/4r^2

= (3/4)[k(q)(q)/r^2]

= (3/4)F

= (3/4)(5 N)

= 3.75 N

Which type of device enables its users to see around corners?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

We can use optical fibers.

Explanation:

The optical fibers are the optical devices which is based on the total internal reflection.

The optical fiber has two layers, one is called core and the other is called cladding.

The refractive index of core is more than the cladding.

As a ray of light falls on the core at more than the critical angle for that pair of media(core and cladding), it suffers the total internal reflection at the interface.

A sailboat is traveling across the ocean with a speed of 4 m/s when large gusts of wind pick up that starts to accelerate the sa
MatroZZZ [7]
Initial velocity, u = 4 m/s

acceleration due to gusts of wind = 3 m/s^2

time, t = 1 min = 60 s

Let distance travelled = S

From equation of motion,

S = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 4 \times 60 +   \frac{1}{2}  \times 3 \times  {60}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 240 + 5400 \\  \\ S = 5640 \: m

Thus, the boat would have traveled 5640m after gusts picked up.
