Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the

m apart, and they then fly off in opposite directions, free of the spring. The mass of A is 8.00 times the mass of B, and the energy stored in the spring was 73 J. Assume that the spring has negligible mass and that all its stored energy is transferred to the particles. (a) Once that transfer is complete, what is the kinetic energy of particle A

Answer:

 K_a = 8,111 J

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before dropping the particles

          p₀ = 0

final moment

          p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

          p₀ = p_f

          0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

tells us that

          m_a = 8 m_b

         

           0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b

           v_b = - 8 v_a                    (1)

indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved

starting point

           Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J

final point. After separating the body

          Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²

           K₀ = K_f

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)

           

we substitute equation 1

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)

           73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)

           73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a

            K_a = 8,111 J

How does inertia affect the motion of an object?
Furkat [3]

<u>Inertia affects the motion of an object as follows:</u>

When an object is in motion, it will continue to be in the same state unless otherwise some outside force is being applied to it. Thus, inertia affects the motion of an object. It restricts some other force being acted upon the object.

But mass of an object is directly proportional to inertia. So when the inertia is more on an object, it means that the object has more mass. For example, if there are two similar bricks, one that is made up of mortar and the other one is made of Styrofoam.

To identify which brick is made of Styrofoam without lifting the bricks, push both the bricks with equal force, the one that has less resistance tends to move faster. This means that it has less inertia and hence less mass.

A charge q = 3 × 10-6 C of mass m = 2 × 10-6 kg, and speed v = 5 × 106 m/s enters a uniform magnetic field. The mass experiences
NeX [460]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.004 mT

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, q=3\times 10^{-6}\ C

Mass of charge particle, m=2\times 10^{-6}\ C

Speed, v=5\times 10^{6}\ m/s

Acceleration, a=3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2

We need to find the minimum magnetic field that would produce such an acceleration. So,

ma=qvB\ sin\theta

For minimum magnetic field,

ma=qvB

B=\dfrac{ma}{qv}

B=\dfrac{2\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2}{3\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 5\times 10^{6}\ m/s}

B = 0.004 T

or

B = 4 mT

So, the magnetic field produce such an acceleration at 4 mT. Hence, this is the required solution.

Vince weighs 160 pounds, and his friend Nadir weighs 140 pounds. Nadir calculated that his weight on another planet would be abo
prisoha [69]

Answer:

C) 64lb

Explanation:

use the linearity method to find the weight of nadir on another planet, it is applied as follows.

Nadir Weight in earth ⇒ Nadir weight in another planet

Vince Weigh in eart  ⇒  X

our goal is to find the weight of vince in another planet (X), for this we multiply the diagonal that continents the data and divide among the remaining

140pounds    ⇒   56lb

160pounds    ⇒ X

X=\frac{(160)(56)}{140} =64lb

Vince weigh on the other planet is C) 64lb

What does Atomic Collisions mean
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Atomic and molecular collision processes are the physical interactions of atoms and molecules when they are brought into close contact with each other and with electrons, protons, neutrons or ions. This includes energy-conserving elastic scattering and inelastic scattering.

Using this formula Vj = V; + at, If a vehicle starts from rest
Furkat [3]

Answer:

<em>The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration</u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

The vehicle starts from rest (vo=0) and accelerates at a=4.5 m/s2 for t=8 seconds. The final speed is:

v_f=0+4.5*8

v_f=36\ m/s

The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s
