A 15 kg ball moving to the right at 2.0 m/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 30 kg ball moving to the left at 1.5 m/s.

After the collision, the smaller ball moves to the left at 3.0 m/s. Assume that neither ball rotates before or after the collision and that both balls are moving on a frictionless surface. What is the velocity of the 30 kg ball after the collision?​

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal distance = 230 m

Time t = 6 sec

Vertical distance = 16 m

We need to calculate the horizontal component

Using formula of horizontal component

R =u\cos\theta t

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{230}{6} = u\cos\theta

u\cos\theta=38.33.....(I)

We need to calculate the height

Using vertical component

H=u\sin\theta t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value in the equation

16 =u\sin\theta\times6-\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times6^2

u\sin\theta=\dfrac{16+9.8\times18}{6}

u\sin\theta=32.06.....(II)

Dividing equation (II) and (I)

\dfrac{u\sin\theta}{u\cos\theta}=\dfrac{32.06}{38.33}

\tan\theta=0.8364

\theta=\tan^{-1}0.8364

\theta=39.90^{\circ}

(a). We need to calculate the initial speed

Using equation (I)

u\cos\theta\times t=38.33

Put the value into the formula

u =\dfrac{230}{6\times\cos39.90}

u=49.96\ m/s

(b). We have already calculate the angle.

Hence, (a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

33.6 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 47.41 m/s²

t = 1.19 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (1.19 s) + ½ (47.41 m/s²) (1.19 s)²

Δx = 33.6 m

Please help Math Phys
Lorico [155]

Answer:

269 m

45 m/s

-58.6 m/s

Explanation:

Part 1

First, find the time it takes for the package to land.  Take the upward direction to be positive.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(-175 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 5.98 s

Next, find the horizontal distance traveled in that time:

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (45 m/s) (5.98 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (5.98 s)²

Δx = 269 m

Part 2

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (0 m/s²) (5.98 s) + (45 m/s

v = 45 m/s

Part 3

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (-175 m)

v = -58.6 m/s

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.76 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the
alex41 [277]

Answer:

(a)v_1 = a_1t_1 = 1.76 t_1

(b) It won't hit

(c) 110 m

Explanation:

(a) the car velocity is the initial velocity (at rest so 0) plus product of acceleration and time t1

v_1 = v_0 + a_1t_1 = 0 +1.76t_1 = 1.76t_1

(b) The velocity of the car before the driver begins braking is

v_1 = 1.76*20 = 35.2m/s

The driver brakes hard and come to rest for t2 = 5s. This means the deceleration of the driver during braking process is

a_2 = \frac{\Delta v_2}{\Delta t_2} = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{t_2} = \frac{0 - 35.2}{5} = -7.04 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to calculate how far the car has travel since braking to stop

s_2 = v_1t_2 + a_2t_2^2/2

s_2 = 35.2*5 - 7.04*5^2/2 = 88 m

Also the distance from start to where the driver starts braking is

s_1 = a_1t_1^2/2 = 1.76*20^2/2 = 352

So the total distance from rest to stop is 352 + 88 = 440 m < 550 m so the car won't hit the limb

(c) The distance from the limb to where the car stops is 550 - 440 = 110 m
