Answer:

a) v₂ = 4.2 m/s

b) v₂ = 5 m/s

Explanation:

a)

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0.8 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0.8\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)\\v_2 = 5\ m/s - 0.8\ m/s

<u>v₂ = 4.2 m/s</u>

<u></u>

b)

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)

<u>v₂ = 5 m/s</u>

What is the smallest possible number of products in a decomposition reaction?
Vaselesa [24]
The smallest number of products in a decomposition reaction is two because there is 1 reactant that breaks down and when it does break down there must be two products. It is generally more, though.

A goose with a mass of 2.0 kg strikes a commercial airliner with a mass of 160,000 kg head-on. Before the collision, the goose w
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of goose, m₁ = 2.0 kg

mass of commercial airliner, m₂ = 160,000 kg

initial velocity of the bird, u₁ = 60 km/hr  = 16.667 m/s

initial velocity of the airliner, u₂ = 870 km/hr = 241.667 m/s

Change in momentum is given as;

ΔP = mv - mu

where;

u is the initial velocity of the bird

v is the final velocity of the bird

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of bird and airliner after collision;

(2 x 16.667) + (160,000 x 241.667) = v (2 + 160,000)

38,666,753.334 = 160,002v

v = 38,666,753.334 / 160,002

v = 241.664 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the bird is negligible compared to final  velocity of the airliner.

ΔP = mv - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 2(0 - 16.667)

ΔP = -33.334 m/s

The negative sign implies a deceleration of the bird after the impact.

Therefore, the change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Zad. 2 W marszobiegu chłopiec przebiegł 900 m w ciągu 205 min, a następnie przeszedł 300m w tym danym czasie. Jaka była średnia
USPshnik [31]

Odpowiedź:

0,049 m / s

Wyjaśnienie:

Biorąc pod uwagę, że:

Dystans biegu = 900m

Czas trwania = 205 minut

Długość przejścia = 300 m

Zajęty czas = 205 minut

Średnia prędkość :

(Przebieg + pokonany dystans) / całkowity czas

Średnia prędkość :

(900 m +. 300 m) / 205 + 205

1200 m / 410 minut

Minuty do sekund

1200 / (410 * 60)

1200/24600

= 0,0487804

= 0,049 m / s

The current in some DC circuits decays according to the function I=I0e−t/τ, where I is the current at some point in time, I0 is
almond37 [142]

Answer: 1.95

Explanation:

You should start off from the decay formula and solve for τ:

I = I_{0}e^{\frac{t}{\tau\\  } }

\frac{I}{I_{0}} = e^{\frac{-t}{\tau} }

Apply inverse logarithmic function:

ln(\frac{0.2 A}{1.2 A} ) = \frac{-t}{\tau}

The final form will be:

\tau=\frac{-3.5s}{ln(\frac{0.2A}{1.2A} )}

Inputing values for I, IO, and t:

\tau=\frac{-3.5S}{ln(\frac{0.2 A}{1.2 A} )} = 1.95
