Answer:

v = 21.0 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise, it is generally asked to determine the final speed of the ball.

Let's start by finding the acceleration of it

F = ma

a = F / m

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

m = 2.00 102 g (1kg / 1000g) = 0.200 kg

x = 80.0 cm (1m / 100 cm) = 0.800 m

we calculate

a = 55.0 / 0.200

a = 275 m / s

now we can use kinematics, where the ball has an initial velocity of zero and travels a distance x = 80 cm with the force

v² = v₀² + 2 a x

v² = 0 + 2ax

v = $\sqrt{2ax}$

let's calculate

v = $\sqrt{2 \ 275 \ 0.800}$ Ra 2 275 0.800

v = 20.98 m / s

if we use the criteria of significant figures

v = 21.0 m / s

Answer:

$v_{2f} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}$

Explanation:

If the collision is elastic and exactly head-on, then we can use the law of momentum conservation for the motion of the 2 balls

Before the collision

$P_i = m_1v$

After the collision

$P_f = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

So using the law of momentum conservation

$P_i = P_f$

$m_1v = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

We can solve for the speed of ball 1 post collision in terms of others:

$v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}$

Their kinetic energy is also conserved before and after collision

$m_1v^2/2 = m_1v_{1f}^2/2 + m_2v_{2f}^2/2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1v_{1f}^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2$

From here we can plug in $v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}$

$m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right)^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v^2 - 2vv_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1} + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1^2}\right) + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1v^2 - 2vv_{2f}m_2 + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1} + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$v_{2f}^2(m_2 + \frac{m_2^2}{m_1}) - 2vm_2v_{2f} = 0$

$v_{2f}(1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}) = 2v$

$v_{2f} = \frac{2v}{1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2v}{\frac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}$

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?

Vanyuwa [196]

Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.

A camera with a 50.0-mm focal length lens is being used to photograph a person standing 3.00 m away. (a) How far from the lens m

kirill [66]

a) 50.8 mm

b) The whole image (1:1)

c) It seems reasonable

Explanation:

a)

To project the image on the film, the distance of the film from the lens must be equal to the distance of the image from the lens. This can be found by using the lens equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length of the lens

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

In this problem:

f = 50.0 mm = 0.050 m is the focal length (positive for a convex lens)

p = 3.00 m is the distance of the person from the lens

Therefore, we can find q:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{0.050}-\frac{1}{3.00}=19.667m^{-1}\\q=\frac{1}{19.667}=0.051 m=50.8 mm$

b)

Here we need to find the height of the image first.

This can be done by using the magnification equation:

$\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}$

where:

y' is the height of the image

y = 1.75 m is the height of the real person

q = 50.8 mm = 0.0508 m is the distance of the image from the lens

p = 3.00 m is the distance of the person from the lens

Solving for y', we find:

$y'=-\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(0.0508)(1.75)}{3.00}=-0.0296 m=-29.6mm$

(the negative sign means the image is inverted)

Therefore, the size of the image (29.6 mm) is smaller than the size of the film (36.0 mm), so the whole image can fit into the film.

c)

This seems reasonable: in fact, with a 50.0 mm focal length, if we try to take the picture of a person at a distance of 3.00 m, we are able to capture the whole image of the person in the photo.
