Answer:
Explanation:
The football players collide in a completely inelastic collision, in other words they have the same velocity after the collision, this velocity has a magnitude V=1.6m/s.
We need to use the conservation of momentum Law, the total momentum is the same before and after the collision, at the initial point the receiver does not have any speed
(1)
We solve in order to find the receiver mass:
39.2 J
Explanation:
Step 1:
To find the potential energy the following formula is used.
Potential Energy = m × g × h
Where,
m = Mass
g = Acceleration due to gravity
h = Height
Step 2:
Here m = 4 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², h = 1 m
Potential Energy = ( 4 × 9.8 × 1)
= 39.2 J
Answer:
the angular velocity of the carousel after the child has started running =

Explanation:
Given that
the mass of the child = m
The radius of the disc = R
moment of inertia I = 
change in time = 
By using the torque around the inertia ; we have:
T = I×∝
where
R×F = I × ∝
R×F =
∝
F =
∝
∝ =
( expression for angular angular acceleration)
The first equation of motion of rotating wheel can be expressed as :

where ;
∝ =
Then;


∴ the angular velocity of the carousel after the child has started running =
