Answer:

v₁ = u₁/2√3 ≈ 0.866u₁

v₂ = u₁/2      = 0.5u₁

θ = 60°

Explanation:

let u₁ be the initial velocity of the first ball

let v₁ be the final velocity of the first ball

let v₂ be the final velocity of the second ball

For elastic collisions, the angle between the departing masses is 90°

assume the first ball initially moves along the x axis in the positive direction

conservation of momentum

In the y direction, initial momentum is zero

After the collision

mv₁sin30 = mv₂sin60

½v₁ = ½√(3)v₂

v₁ = √(3)v₂

in the x direction,

mu₁ = mv₁cos30 + mv₂cos-60

u₁ = v₁cos30 + v₂cos60

u₁ = (√(3)v₂)½√(3) + ½v₂

u₁ = 2v₂

v₂ = u₁/2

v₁ = √(3)v₂ = √(3)(u₁/2)

Charge is placed on two conducting spheres that are very far apart and connected by a long thin wire. The radius of the smaller
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

surface charge density on each sphere is 440 \times 10^{-9} C

Explanation:

given data

radius of smaller sphere = 5 cm

radius of  larger sphere is 12 cm

electric field at surface of larger sphere = 660 kV/m = 660 × 1000 v/m

solution

we apply here electric field formula that is express as

E = (\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon  })\times  (\frac{Q_{1} }{R^{2} } )    .................1

put here value

660000 = 9 \times 10^9 \times \frac{Q1}{0.12^2}  

Q1 = 1056 × 10^{-9}

and

here field inside a conductor is zero so that electric potential ( V ) is constant

\frac{Q{1} }{R} = \frac{Q{2} }{r}   ..................2

so Q2 will be

Q2 =  \frac{5}{12} \times 1056 \times 10^{-9}  

Q2 =  440 \times 10^{-9}  C

In my trigonometry class, we were assigned a problem on Angular and Linear Velocity.
Rzqust [24]

1) 0.0011 rad/s

2) 7667 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The angular velocity of an object in circular motion is equal to the rate of change of its angular position. Mathematically:

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

where

\theta is the angular displacement of the object

t is the time elapsed

\omega is the angular velocity

In this problem, the Hubble telescope completes an entire orbit in 95 minutes. The angle covered in one entire orbit is

\theta=2\pi rad

And the time taken is

t=95 min \cdot 60 =5700 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the telescope is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{5700}=0.0011 rad/s

2)

For an object in circular motion, the relationship between angular velocity and linear velocity is given by the equation

v=\omega r

where

v is the linear velocity

\omega is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circular orbit

In this problem:

\omega=0.0011 rad/s is the angular velocity of the Hubble telescope

The telescope is at an altitude of

h = 600 km

over the Earth's surface, which has a radius of

R = 6370 km

So the actual radius of the Hubble's orbit is

r=R+h=6370+600=6970 km = 6.97\cdot 10^6 m

Therefore, the linear velocity of the telescope is:

v=\omega r=(0.0011)(6.97\cdot 10^6)=7667 m/s
