Two shuffleboard disks of equal mass, one orange and the other yellow, are involved in an elastic, glancing collision. The yello

w disk is initially at rest and is struck by the orange disk moving with a speed of 5.00 m/s. After the collision, the orange disk moves along a direction that makes an angle of 37.08 with its initial direction of motion. The velocities of the two disks are perpendicular after the collision. Determine the final speed of each disk.

Answer:

The final speeds of the yellow and orange shuffleboard disks are 3.015 meters per second and 3.989 meters per second, respectively.

Explanation:

In this case, we see a two-dimension system formed by two shuffleboard disks, which do not experiment any effect from external forces, so that the Principle of Linear Momentum can be applied. The equations of equilibrium are respectively:

m_{Y}\cdot \vec v_{Y,o}+m_{O}\cdot \vec v_{O,o} = m_{Y}\cdot \vec v_{Y}+m_{O}\cdot \vec v_{O} (Eq. 1)

Where:

m_{Y}, m_{O} - Masses of the yellow and orange shuffleboard disks, measured in kilograms.

\vec v_{Y,o}, \vec v_{O,o} - Initial vectors velocity of the yellow and orange shuffleboard disks, measured in meters per second.

\vec v_{Y}, \vec v_{O} - Final vectors velocity of the yellow and orange shuffleboard disks, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m_{Y} = m_{O}, then the system is now reduced into this form:

\vec v_{Y,o}+\vec v_{O,o} = \vec v_{Y}+\vec v_{O} (Eq. 2)

Given that \vec v_{Y,o} = \left(0\,\frac{m}{s}, 0\,\frac{m}{s}\right), \vec v_{O,o} = \left(5\,\frac{m}{s}, 0\,\frac{m}{s}  \right), \vec v_{Y} = v_{Y}\cdot \left(\cos 52.92^{\circ},-\sin 52.92^{\circ}\right) and \vec v_{O} = v_{O}\cdot (\cos 37.08^{\circ},\sin 37.08^{\circ}), then we find these two equations of equilibrium:

x-Direction:

v_{Y}\cdot \cos 52.92^{\circ}+v_{O}\cdot \cos 37.08^{\circ} = 5\,\frac{m}{s} (Eq. 3)

y-Direction:

-v_{Y}\cdot \sin 52.92^{\circ}+v_{O}\cdot \sin 37.08^{\circ} = 0\,\frac{m}{s} (Eq. 4)

The solution of this system of linear equations is:

v_{Y} = 3.015\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{O} = 3.989\,\frac{m}{s}

The final speeds of the yellow and orange shuffleboard disks are 3.015 meters per second and 3.989 meters per second, respectively.

What are two advantages of using renewable resources?
Pavel [41]
One advantage is that whatever resource it is, it will never run out and you wont have to worry about not having it. A second is that there is going to be enough for everyone to use however much they want without there having to be a limit on how much you use.

6. What are 3 different evidences of evolution? How is each form used to provide evidence of evolution?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Divergent - This type of evolution often occurs when closely related species diversify to new habitats. On a large scale, divergent evolution is responsible for the creation of the current diversity of life on earth from the first living cells. On a smaller scale, it is responsible for the evolution of humans and apes from a common primate ancestor.

Convergent - Convergent evolution causes difficulties in fields of study such as comparative anatomy. Convergent evolution takes place when species of different ancestry begin to share analogous traits because of a shared environment or other selection pressure. For example, whales and fish have some similar characteristics since both had to evolve methods of moving through the same medium: water.

Parallel evolution - Parallel evolution occurs when two species evolve independently of each other, maintaining the same level of similarity. Parallel evolution usually occurs between unrelated species that do not occupy the same or similar niches in a given habitat.

Two objects exert a gravitational force of 3 N on one another when they are 10 m apart. What would that force be if the distance
jeka94
Gravitational force = G ( m1 m2 ) / r²
3 = G ( m1 m2 ) / ( 10 )²x = G ( m1 m2 ) / ( 5 )²We shall divide those two equations:3 / x = 1/100 / 1/25 = 25 / 100 = 1 / 4x · 1 = 3 · 4x = 12Answer:C. 12 N
