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

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.  All three have equal non-zero pressure

Explanation:

Pressure is the relationship between the force and the area of ​​a body, when the bodies are liquid the formula that

         P = rho g h

Where rho is the density and h the height of the liquid

We see that for this expression the pressure does not depend on the shape of the container, but on its height, as the three vessels have the same height, the pressure at the bottom is the same.

The correct answer is C   All three have equal non-zero pressure

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Explanation:

Writers periodically compete to see who can write the longest sentence in literature. James Joyce long held the English record with a 4,391 word sentence in Ulysses. Jonathan Coe one-uped him in 2001 with a 13,955 word sentence in The Rotter’s Club. More recently, a single-sentence, 469,375 word novel appeared.Writers periodically compete to see who can write the longest sentence in literature.

5. A family of ducks is swimming in a pond at a speed of 3 m/s when a gust of wind hits them. By the time they reach the other s
ella [17]

Answer:

The time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial speed of the ducks, u = 3 m/s

The final speed of the ducks, v = 7 m/s

The acceleration of the duck, a = 1 m/s²

The formula for the acceleration is,

                               a = (v - u) / t

∴                               t = (v - u) / a

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                t = (7 - 3) / 1

                                  = 4 s

Hence, the time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s
