Since the plant is falling, the gravitational energy decreases, so it means b) kinetic energy is increasing.

Hope this helps!! :)

A block of mass m moving due east at speed v collides with and sticks to a block of mass 2m that is moving at the same speed vv
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

30.36°

Explanation:

By using linear momentum; linear momentum can be expressed by the relation:

mv_xi + mv_yj

where ;

m= mass

v_x = velocity of components in the x direction

v_y = velocity of components in the y direction

If we consider the east as the positive x and north as positive y which is synonymous to what we usually have on a graph.

Then;

Initial momentum = mvi + 2mvcos 45i + 2mvsin45 j

= (mv+2mvcos45)i + (2mvsin45)j

However, the masses stick together after collision and move with a common velocity: V_xi +V_yj

∴ Final momentum = 3mv (V_xi +V_yj)

= 3mV_xi + 3mV_yj

From the foregoing ;

initial momentum = final momentum

3mV_xi + 3mV_yj = (mv+2mvcos45)i+(2mvsin45j)

So;

3mV_x = mv + 2mv cos 45 \\\\3mV_y = 2mV sin 45

V_x = \frac{mv+2mvcos45 }{3m}\\\\V_x = \frac{v+2vcos45}{3}

V_y = \frac{2mvsin45}{3m} \\\\V_y = \frac{2vsin45}{3}

Finally;

The required angle θ = tan^{-1} = \frac{V_y}{V_x}

θ = tan^{-1} = \frac{\frac{2vsin45}{3}}{\frac{v+2v.cos45}{3}}

θ = tan^{-1} = \frac{2sin 45}{1+2cos45}\\\\

θ = 30.36°

250 W 12 km/h<br>4. Convert yoor answer from 3 to meters per second.​
taurus [48]

Answer: 3.33 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the questions is to convert  12 km/h to meter per second (m/s), let's begin:

In order to make the conversion, we have to know the following:

1 km=1000 m

And:

1 h=3600 s

Keeping this in mind, we can make the conversion:

12 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km} \frac{1h}{3600 s}

Then:

12 \frac{km}{h}= 3.33 \frac{m}{s}

Your friend asks you for a glass of water and you bring her 5 milliliters of water. Is this more or less than what she was proba
Eddi Din [679]
Probably not what you were expecting... the average bottle of water is 24 ounces. 5 milliliters is about the amount of water in a spoon. Hope this helps!!!
