A particle of mass m collides with a second particle of mass m. Before the collision, the first particle is moving in the x-dire

ction with a speed 2v and the second particle is at rest. After the collision, the second particle is moving in the direction 45o below the x-axis and with a speed √2v.
a) Find the velocity of the first particle after the collision. (i.e. find the x-and y-components of the velocity.)
b) Find the total kinetic energy of the two particles before and after the collision.
c) Is the collision elastic or inelastic?

Answer:

a) v, v

b) 2mv^2

c) Elastic collion

Explanation:

(a) The velocity of the second particle after the collision is (v2x,v2y)=(v,−v).  From momentum conservation in x-direction

Here x, y represent direction.They are not variable. 1 and 2 represent before and after.

2vm=v1xm+v2xm, we find v1x=v.

From momentum conservation in y-direction

0 =v1ym+v2ym, we findv1y=v.

(b) By energy conservation principle

Before: K=1/2m(2v)^2=2mv^2.

After: K=1/2m(v^2(1x)+v^2(1y))+12m(v22x+v22y)=2mv^2

(c) The collision is elastic

Determining the pH of substances such as purple grape juice and catsup using test strips can be difficult. Why?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Because they would naturally dye the test strips in the colors violet and red, regardless of their pH values

A certain car traveling at 97 km/h can stop in 47 m on a level road find the coefficient of friction
IrinaVladis [17]

The coefficient of friction between the road and the car's tire is determined as 0.78.

<h3>Acceleration of the car</h3>

The acceleration of the car is calculated as follows;

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2as

a = u²/2s

where;

  • u is the initial velocity = 97 km/h = 26.94 m/s

a = (26.94)²/(2 x 47)

a = 7.72 m/s²

<h3>Coefficient of friction</h3>

μ = a/g

μ = (7.72)/9.8

μ = 0.78
