Why does your boat float but not your ring?

Physics

Damm [24]3 years ago
5 0

The air that is inside a ship is much less dense than water. That's what keeps it floating! ... The closer the total density of the ship is to the density of the same volume of water, the greater the amount of the ship that will be in the water.

Three small balls of the same size but different masses are hung side-by-side in parallel on the strings of same length. They to
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

m1/6 ( c )

Explanation:

since all the balls starts having the same momentum after the two collisions we will apply the principal of conservation of energy

After first collision

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 --- ( 1 )

After second collision

m2v2 = m2v2 + m3v3   ---- ( 2 )

combining equations 1 and 2

m1v = m1v1 + m2v2 + m3v3  ----- ( 3 )

All balls moving at the same momentum ( p ) = m1v1 = m2v2 = m3v3

note ; 3p = m1v ∴ m3 = \frac{m1v}{3v3}  -----  ( 4 )

applying conservation of energy

3v = v1 + v2 + v3 ------- ( 5 )

also 3m1v1 = m1v = v1 = v/3 =

v2 + v3 = 8/3 v ----- ( 6 )

next eliminate V3 for equation 6 by applying conservation of energy and momentum

m1 =  2m2 ------ ( 7 )

now using p1 = p2 = m1v1 = 1/2 m1v1  hence v2 = 2v1  where v1 = 1/3 v

hence ; v2 = 2/3 v ------- ( 8 )

solving with equation 6 and 8

v3 = 2v ------ ( 9 ) ∴  v/v3 = 1/2 ---- ( 10 )

solving with equation 9 and 10

m3 = m1/3 * 1/2 = m1/6
