To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. With this we will find the speed before the impact. Through the kinematic equations of linear motion we will find the velocity after the impact.
Since the momentum is given as the product between mass and velocity difference, we will proceed with the velocities found to calculate it.
Part A) Conservation of the energy
Part B) Kinematic equation of linear motion,
Here
v= 0 Because at 1.5m reaches highest point, so v=0
Therefore the velocity after the collision with the floor is 3.7m/s
PART C) Total change of impulse is given as,
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
I think it's c please let me know if it's incorrect
Answer:
It gets refracted.
Explanation:
When light beam travels through different mediums they refract i.e. they change their direction. Here the angle of incidence is less than 90°. After entering the glass slab the light beam will move towards the normal (a line drawn perpendicular to the interface of the two mediums). Thus the angle of refraction will be even lesser than angle of incidence.
Answer:
Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg
Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)
Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground
v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s
KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules
One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
The acceleration of the car,
Here, v is final velocity, u is initial velocity and t is time taken by the car.
Given , and
Therefore, from above equation
.
Here, negative sign shows deceleration of a car.
Thus the the magnitude of car acceleration is .
