An 8.00 kg mass moving east at 15.4 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a 10.0 kg object that is initially at

rest. After the collision, the 8.00 kg object moves south at 3.90 m/s. (a) What is the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision

Answer:

9.3m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum

Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

m1 = 8kg

u1 = 15.4m/s

m2 = 10kg

u2 = 0m/s(at rest)

v1 = 3.9m/s

Required

v2.

Substitute

8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2

123.2=31.2+10v2

123.2-31.2 = 10v2

92 = 10v2

v2 = 92/10

v2 = 9.2m/s

Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s

stich3 [128]

Answer:

  v =  7.67 m/s  for L= 1m

Explanation:

Let's use the conservation of mechanical energy, at the highest point and the lowest point

Initial. Vertical ruler

       Em₀ = mg h

Final. Just before touching the floor

       Em_{f} = K = ½ I w²

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

      m g h = ½ I w²

The moment of inertia of a ruler that turns on one end is

      I = 1/3 m L²

Let's replace

      m g h = ½ (1/3 m L²) w²2

      g h = 1/6 L² w²

They ask for the speed of the end so the height h is equal to the length of the ruler

      g L = 1/6 L² w²

The linear and angular variables are related

      v = w r

     w = v / r

In this case the point of interest a in strangers r = L

     g L = 1/6 L² v² / L²

     v = √ 6 g L

Let's calculate

Assume that the length of the meter is L = 1 m

    v = √ (6 9.8 1)

   v =  7.67 m/s

Based on the replacement reaction, what would the products of the reaction be?
fredd [130]

Answer:

Explanation:

                    BeSO₄ + 2NH₄OH → Be(OH)₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₄

In a replacement reaction, an atom or ion substitutes or replaces another in a reaction. We can have single replacement or double replacement reaction.

The above is a double replacement reaction. In this type of reaction, partners are exchanged to form compounds. In a single replacement, one substance is replacing another.

What do radio waves and gamma rays have in common?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

A - They are both electromagnetic waves.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, that vibrate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave (for this reason, they are said to be "transverse waves").

Electromagnetic waves, unlike mechanical waves, can travel through a vacuum, and do not need a medium to propagate. Their speed in a vacuum is a constant and it is called speed of light (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s).

Electromagnetic waves are classified, depending on their wavelength and frequency, into 7 different types - together they form the electromagnetic spectrum. The 7 types, listed from shortest to longest wavelength, are:

gamma rays

X-rays

ultraviolet radiation

visible light

infrared radiation

microwaves

radio waves

All these waves, despite having different properties, are all electromagnetic waves -so we see that both radio waves and gamma rays belong to this type of waves.
