Which is true about inelastic collisions: a. An inelastic collision does not obey conservation of energy. b. An inelastic collis
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Option c is correct

Explanation:

There are two types of collisions-elastic collision and inelastic collision.

In elastic collision, both kinetic energy and total momentum are conserved. On the other hand, in inelastic collision, total momentum is conserved but kinetic energy is not conserved. Thus, option b and d are incorrect.

Total energy is always conserved in both types. Thus, option a is incorrect.

In a perfectly inelastic collision, objects stick together. This happens because maximum kinetic energy is dissipated and used in bonding of the two objects. Thus, correct option is c.

Relate RNA to translation and transcription
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

RNA plays a role in both Translation and transcription.

Explanation:

RNA translation uses mRNA (or messenger RNA) in order to bring the coding to the ribosome.

RNA transcription is where the coding receives a new strand of coding (replacing thymine with uracil) , which is then turned into protein

Block A can slide relative to block B which, in turn, can slide on a perfectly smooth horizontal plane. If the initial velocity
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

the distance that A slides relative to B is S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  

Explanation:

From the diagram below;

acceleration of A relative to B is : a = - ( \mu g  + \frac{ \mu mg}{M})

where

v = u + at

0 = v_o + ( - \mu g - \frac{\mu m g }{M})t

Making t the subject of the formula; we have:

t = \frac{v_o M}{(\mu g )(M+m)}

v^2 = u^2 +2 as\\\\0^2 = v_o^2 - 2 (\mu g ) (\frac{M+m}{M})S\\\\

S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  which implies the distance that A slides relative to B.

The final velocities of the two blocks can be determined as follows:

v = u + at

v = v_o - \mu g \frac{v_oM}{\mu g (M+m)}\\\\v = \frac{\mu g mv_o}{m+M}\\\\

v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

Thus, the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

A string of length L, fixed at both ends, is capable of vibrating at 309 Hz in its first harmonic. However, when a finger is pla
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

 i = 0.3326 L

Explanation:

A fixed string at both ends presents a phenomenon of standing waves, two waves with the same frequency that are added together. The expression to describe these waves is

    2 L = n λ           n = 1, 2, 3…

The first harmonic or leather for n = 1

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency

     v = λ f

     λ = v / f

Let's replace in the first equation

    2 L = 1 (v / f₁)

For the shortest length L = L-l

   2 (L- l) = 1 (v / f₂)

These two equations form our equation system, let's eliminate v

    v = 2L f₁

    v = 2 (L-l) f₂

    2L f₁ = 2 (L-l) f₂

    L- l = L f₁ / f₂

    l = L - L f₁ / f₂

    l = L (1- f₁ / f₂)

.

Let's calculate

    l / L = (1- 309/463)

    i / L = 0.3326
