Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

Put v2,i =0, in second equation

v2,f= (m2-m1)v2,i + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f = 0 + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f =  2m1v1,i/m1+m2

In this equation coefficient of v1,i is positive so v2,f and v1,i have the same sign.

2 )

Put m1 < m2  and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

As m1-m2 is negative , v1f and v1i will have opposite sign.

3 )

Put m1 > m2  and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

m1 - m2 is positive so v1f and v1i will have same  sign.

4 )

Put m1 = m2 and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

= 0 because m1 = m2

So glider 1 will stop because v1,f = 0 .

A family took a trip in a car traveling East from Greensboro to Wilmington, NC. Use the Graph to answer the questions below.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

1). Average speed = 1.5 m per second

2). Average velocity = 1.5 m per second

Explanation:

1). Since, speed is a scalar quantity

   Therefore, average speed of the trip = \frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}

    From the graph attached,

   Total distance covered = 10 + 10 + 20 + 0 + 20 + 30

                                           = 90 meters

   Total time taken = 60 seconds

    Average speed = \frac{90}{60}

                               = 1.5 meter per second

2). Velocity is a vector quantity.

    Therefore, average velocity = \frac{\triangle d}{\triangle t}

                                                   = \frac{d_{60}-d_0}{60-0}

                                                   = \frac{90-0}{60-0}

                                                   = 1.5 meter per second

The shifting of the observed wavelength of light due to the motion of the source toward or away from the observer is called the
alexdok [17]

Answer:

doppler effect

Explanation:

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming shorter this means that the bodies are getting closer. This is known as blue shift.

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming longer this means that the bodies are getting farther. This is known as red shift.

Collectively this phenomenon is known as the Doppler effect.
