You hold glider AA of mass 0.125 kgkg and glider BB of mass 0.375 kgkg at rest on an air track with a compressed spring of negli

gible mass between them. When you release the gliders, the spring pushes them apart. Once the gliders are no longer in contact with the spring, glider AA is moving to the right at 0.600 m/sm/s. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of glider BB at this time

Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction  

Explanation:

Inelastic Collision

Given data

mass of glider A m1= 0.125kg

initial velocity u1=0

final velocity v1= 0.600 m/s

mass of glider B m2= 0.375kg

initial velocity u2=0

final velocity v2=?

We know that the expression for the conservation of momentum is given as

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

since u1=u2=u=0m/s

u(m1+m2)=m1v1+m2v2

substituting we have

0(0.125+0.0375)=0.125*0.6+0.375*v2

0=0.075+0.375v2

0.375v2=-0.075

v2=-0.075/0.375

v2=-0.2m/s

 The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction

Why do intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The magma cools very slowly so that the crystals of different minerals have time to grow. The magma molecules in have time to organize themselves into crystal formations before the magma hardens. The naked eye helps the Intrusive rocks that has large crystals be seen.

What is the motion of a body when only the force of gravity is acting on it
Mashcka [7]
When only the force of gravity acts on an object,
the situation is called "free fall".

The motion is uniformly accelerated.  The object falls
straight toward the center of the other object in whose
gravity it shares, and its speed increases at a constant
rate. 

When this happens on or near the surface of the Earth,
the rate is (9.8 meters per second greater) for each
second of falling.

True free-fall is never observed in daily life.  Whenever
we see an object falling, it is always falling through air,
which counteracts the force of gravity to a greater or
lesser degree, depending on the object's size, shape,
weight, surface texture, and speed through the air.
