Answer:
Mass of the box = 0.9433 kg
Explanation:
Mass of racket-ball
= 0.00427 kg
Velocity of racket-ball before collision
= 22.3 m/s
Velocity of racket-ball after collision with box
= -11.5 m/s
[Since ball is bouncing back, so velocity is taken negative.]
Velocity of the box before collision
= 0 m/s
<em>[Since the box is stationary, so velocity is taken zero]</em>
Velocity of box moving forward after collision
= 1.53 m/s
To find the mas of the box
.
By law of conservation of momentum we have:
Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision
This can be written as:


We can plugin the given value to find 


Adding both sides by 0.4911


Dividing both sides by 1.53.


∴
kg
Mass of the box = 0.9433 kg (Answer)
The concept used to solve this problem is that given in the kinematic equations of motion. From theory we know that the change in velocities of a body is equivalent to twice the distance traveled by acceleration, in other words:

Where,
Final and initial velocity
a = Acceleration
x = Displacement
For the given case, the displacement is equivalent to the height (x = h) and the acceleration is the same gravitational acceleration (a = g). In turn we do not have initial speed therefore


Our values are given as


Replacing we have that,



Therefore the speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano is 529.15m/s
Answer:
The mouse runs faster to have the same kinetic energy as the elephant.
Explanation:
Note from the equation given, mass (m) is directly proportional to KE. This means an elephant with more mass will have more KE, therefore, for the mouse to compensate, it has to run faster because its KE is smaller because of its small mass. If both run at the same speed, the elephant would have thousands of times more kinetic energy than the mouse. So the mouse has to run faster so that its speed compansates for its smaller weight.
Answer:
1500000 Pa
Explanation:
The formula for pressure is force per unit area.
P=F/A where F is force and A is area
Given that ;
F= mass * acceleration due to gravity
F= 60 * 9.81 = 588.6 = 589 N
A= area = 4cm² = 0.0004 m²
P= F/A = 589 / 0.0004
P= 1471500
P=1500000 Pa
Answer:
h=15.27m
Explanation:
Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:

We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:

or

which for our values is:
