Answer:

The velocity of the second ball is 15.88 m/s East

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The type of collision = Perfectly elastic collision

The mass of the ball moving East, m₁ = 0.400 kg

The velocity of the ball moving East, v₁ = 3.7 m/s

The mass of the ball at rest, m₂ = 0.200 kg

The initial velocity of the ball at rest, v₂ = 0 m/s

The velocity of the first ball, 'm₁', after the collision, v₃ = 4.24 m/s (The direction is assumed as being towards the West)

The velocity, 'v₄', of the second ball, 'm₂', after the collision is given by the law of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ = m₁·v₃ + m₂·v₄

Substituting the known values gives;

0.400 kg × 3.7 m/s + 0.200 kg × 0 m/s = 0.400 kg × (-4.24 m/s) + 0.200 kg × v₄

∴ 0.200 kg × v₄ = 0.400 kg × 3.7 m/s - 0.400 kg × (-4.24 m/s)

Therefore;

0.200 kg × v₄ = 0.400 kg × 3.7 m/s + 0.400 kg × 4.24 m/s = 3.176 kg·m/s

v₄ = 3.176 kg·m/s/(0.200 kg) = 15.88 m/s

The velocity of the second ball = v₄ = 15.88 m/s East.

11111nata11111 [884]

Explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem:

r² = x² + y²

r² = (-6.46 m)² + (-3.78 m)²

r = 7.48 m

Three pendulums all have the same length and start from the same height. The first pendulum is very light and has a mass of 67 g
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity

Explanation:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity irrespective of their mass difference in isolated system (means where air drag are negligible) and at same length

As you know when velocity is calculated we can not take mass into account.
