The___ of a mirror's surface determines the type of image it forms.

A moving curling stone, A, collides head on with stationary stone, B. Stone B has a larger mass than stone A. If friction is neg

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'c': Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.

Explanation:

Let the velocity and the mass of the smaller stone be 'm' and 'v' respectively

and the mass of big rock be 'M'

Initial momentum of the system equals

$p_i=mv+0=mv$

Now let after the collision the small stone move with a velocity v' and the big roch move with a velocity V'

Thus the final momentum of the system is

$p_f=mv'+MV'$

Equating initial and the final momenta we get

$mv=mv'+MV'\\\\m(v-v')=MV'.....i$

Now since the surface is frictionless thus the energy is also conserved thus

$E_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Similarly the final energy becomes

$E_f=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2$ \

Equating initial and final energies we get

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2\\\\mv^2=mv'^2+MV'^2\\\\m(v^2-v'^2)=MV'^2\\\\m(v-v')(v+v')=MV'^2......(ii)$

Solving i and ii we get

$v+v'=V'$

Using this in equation i we get

$v'=\frac{v(m-M)}{(M-m)}=-v$

Thus putting v = -v' in equation i we get V' = 0

This implies Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of the body is defined as the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy.

E = P.E + K.E

The potential energy of a body is due to the height from the surface of the earth.

P.E = mgh

The kinetic energy of the is possessed by the body due to the virtue of its motion,

K.E = ½ mv²

If there is no velocity associated with the body, there is no K.E in the body.

Lady_Fox [76]

Based on the given statement above, the correct answer would be FALSE. It is not true that range of motion is the distance an object can travel when separated from another object because range of motion or ROM is the distance--linear or angular--<span>that a movable object may normally travel while properly ATTACHED (not separated) to another. Hope this answer helps.</span>

Help me pls its for my science class i need to show my work

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

P = 5880 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the block, m = 30 kg

The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.

The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :

$P=mgh\\\\=30\times 9.8\times 20\\\\=5880\ J$

So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880 J.
