A .5 kg air puck moves to the right at 3 m/s, colliding with a 1.5kg air puck that is moving to the left at 1.5 m/s.

Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

Total momentum of the system before the collision

.5 x 3 - 1.5 x 1.5 = -0.75 kg m/s towards the left

If v be the velocity of the stuck pucks

momentum after the collision = 2 v

Applying conservation of momentum

2 v = -  .75

v =  - .375 m /s

Let after the collision v be the velocity of .5 kg puck

total momentum after the collision

.5 v + 1.5 x .231 = .5v +.3465

Applying conservation of momentum law

.5 v +.3465 = - .75

v = - 2.193 m/s

2 ) To verify whether the collision is elastic or not , we verify whether the kinetic energy is conserved or not.

Kinetic energy before the collision

= 2.25 + 1.6875

=3.9375 J

kinetic energy after the collision

= .04 + 1.2 =1.24 J

So kinetic energy is not conserved . Hence collision is not elastic.

3 ) Change in the momentum of .5 kg

1.5 - (-1.0965 )

= 2.5965

Average force applied = change in momentum / time

= 2.5965 / 25 x 10⁻³

= 103.86 N

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of .750 km. Assuming that sound travels at 340 m/s in air what is the t
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

t = 2.2 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A person observes a firework display for A safe distance of 0.750 km.

d = 750 m

The speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s

We need to find the between the person see and hear a firework explosion. let it is t. So, using the formula of speed.

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{750\ m}{340\ m/s}\\\\t=2.2\ s

So, the required time is 2.2 seconds.
