3.00 kg block moving 2.09 m/s right hits a 2.22 kg block moving 3.92 m/s left. afterwards, the 3.00 kg block moves 1.71 m/s left

. find the velocity of the 2.22 kg block afterwards

Momentum is conserved, so the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision. Take the right direction to be positive. Then

(3.00 kg) (2.09 m/s) + (2.22 kg) (-3.92 m/s) = (3.00 kg) (-1.71 m/s) + (2.22 kg) <em>v</em>

where <em>v</em> is the velocity of the 2.22 kg block after collision. Solve for <em>v</em> :

6.27 kg•m/s - 8.70 kg•m/s = -5.13 kg•m/s + (2.22 kg) <em>v</em>

(2.22 kg) <em>v</em> = 2.70 kg•m/s

<em>v</em> = (2.70 kg•m/s) / (2.22 kg)

<em>v</em> ≈ 1.22 m/s

i.e. a velocity of about 1.22 m/s to the right.

Wittaler [7]
First we write the corresponding kinematics equations:
 a = -g
 v = -g * t + vo
 y = -g * ((t ^ 2) / 2) + vo * t + yo
 Substituting the values:
 y = - (9.81) * (((0.50) ^ 2) / 2) + (19) * (0.50) + (0) = 8.27m
 answer:
 the displacement at the time of 0.50s is 8.27m

Which of the following best describes an action-reaction pair? A. The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon. B.
Papessa [141]
An action-reaction pair would be a pair in which one of the elements exerts a force on the other element (action), and then the other element would respond to this force by exerting another force in the opposite direction (reaction).

From the given choices, we will see that:
For choice A, the moon exerts a force on the earth by pulling it (action) and the earth responds to this force by pulling the moon (reaction in opposite direction of the action).

Therefore, the correct choice would be: 
A. <span>The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon.</span>

If a metal ball suspended by a rod is at rest, which force is responsible for balancing the force due to gravity?
Viktor [21]

There are different kinds of forces; applied force, force of gravity, friction force, normal force, tension force. We will focus on the common forces, applied force and force of gravity. An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by another object. The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the weight of the object.

Samantha is refinishing her rusty wheelbarrow. She moves her sandpaper back and forth 45 times over a rusty area, each time movi
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

W = 12.96 J

Explanation:

The force acting in the direction of motion of the sand paper is the frictional force. So, we first calculate the frictional force:

F = μR

where,

F = Friction Force = ?

μ = 0.92

R = Normal Force = 2.6 N

Therefore,

F = (0.92)(2.6 N)

F = 2.4 N

Now, the displacement is given as:

d = (0.12 m)(45)

d = 5.4 m

So, the work done will be:

W = F d

W = (2.4 N)(5.4 m)

<u>W = 12.96 J</u>
