Two objects of the same mass travel in opposite directions along a horizontal surface. Object X has a speed of 5ms and object Y

has a speed of 5ms, as shown in the figure. After a period of time, object X collides with object Y. In scenario 1, the objects stick together after the collision. In scenario 2, the objects do not stick together after the collision.
Which of the following claims is true regarding how the outcome of scenario 1 is different from the outcome of scenario 2?

Since both objects are travelling in opposite directions at the same speed but eventually colliding with each other hence it is obvious that they are travelling in a circle.

Now, this question is regarding the conversation of momentum - elastic / in elastic collision.

Assuming the balls are in a closed system(an assumption that is consistent in your syllabus,unless stated otherwise)as the ball collides, momentum is conserved but some of the energy might be lost due to the collision either through heat / sound.

Summary:

3 types of collision.

1st type: Elastic collision
- No loss in Kinetic Energy
- No loss in momentum
- Balls do not stick together
Example: Bouncing Basketball, the ball comes back to your hand at the same height.

2nd type: Inelastic collision
- Loss in kinetic energy, (heat energy when in contact)
- No loss in momentum
- Balls do not stick together
Example: Bomb explosion.

3rd type: Perfectly Inelastic collision
- Maximum amount of KE is loss
- No loss in momentum
- Balls stick together
Example: Ballistic Pendulum

Well, you gave us the formula to calculate power from work and time,
but you didn't give us the formula for work.  We have to know that.

             Work = (force) x (distance)

The work to raise Sara to the top of the hill is

               Work = (300 N) x (15 meters)

                         =   4,500 newton-meters  =  4,500 joules .

Now we're ready to use the formula that you gave us.  (Thank you.)

                Power = (work) / (time)

                            = (4,500 joules) / (10 seconds)

                            450 joules/second  =  450 watts.

A merry-go-round with a rotational inertia of 600 kg m2 and a radius of 3. 0 m is initially at rest. A 20 kg boy approaches the
Margaret [11]

Hi there!

\boxed{\omega = 0.38 rad/sec}

We can use the conservation of angular momentum to solve.

\large\boxed{L_i = L_f}

Recall the equation for angular momentum:

L = I\omega

We can begin by writing out the scenario as a conservation of angular momentum:

I_m\omega_m + I_b\omega_b = \omega_f(I_m + I_b)

I_m = moment of inertia of the merry-go-round (kgm²)

\omega_m = angular velocity of merry go round (rad/sec)

\omega_f = final angular velocity of COMBINED objects (rad/sec)

I_b = moment of inertia of boy (kgm²)

\omega_b= angular velocity of the boy (rad/sec)

The only value not explicitly given is the moment of inertia of the boy.

Since he stands along the edge of the merry go round:

I = MR^2

We are given that he jumps on the merry-go-round at a speed of 5 m/s. Use the following relation:

\omega = \frac{v}{r}

L_b = MR^2(\frac{v}{R}) = MRv

Plug in the given values:

L_b = (20)(3)(5) = 300 kgm^2/s

Now, we must solve for the boy's moment of inertia:

I = MR^2\\I = 20(3^2) = 180 kgm^2

Use the above equation for conservation of momentum:

600(0) + 300 = \omega_f(180 + 600)\\\\300 = 780\omega_f\\\\\omega = \boxed{0.38 rad/sec}

<h3>What is an equation of motion?</h3>

Physicists use equations of motion to describe how a physical system behaves in terms of how its motion changes over time.

The behavior of a physical system is described by the equations of motion in more detail as a collection of mathematical functions expressed in terms of dynamic variables. These variables typically comprise time and spatial coordinates, but they could also have momentum components. The most flexible option is generalized coordinates, which can be any useful variable that is a component of the physical system. In classical mechanics, the functions are defined in a Euclidean space, while curved spaces are used in relativity instead. The equations are the answers to the differential equations describing the motion of the dynamics of the dynamics of a system are known. The amount of motion changes according to the strength of the force and does so in the direction of the force's applied straight line.
