One object is at rest, and another is moving. The two collide in a one-dimensional, completely inelastic collision. In other wor
Bess [88]

Answer:

a) The final velocity is 20 m/s when the large-mass object is the one moving initially.

b) The final velocity is 9.0 m/s when the small-mass object is the one moving initially.

Explanation:

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momenta of each object. Each momentum is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p =  momentum.

m =  mass.

v = velocity.

Then, the momentum of the system is the following:

m1 · v1 + m2 · v2 = (m1 + m2) · v

Where:

m1 = mass of the bigger object.

v1 = velocity of the bigger object.

m2 = mass of the smaller object.

v2 = velocity of the smaller object.

v = final velocity of the two objects after the collision.

Solving the equation for the final velocity:

(m1 · v1 + m2 · v2)/ (m1 + m2) = v

a) Let´s calculate the final velocity when the bigger object is moving:

(7.1 kg · 29 m/s + 3.2 kg · 0)/(7.1 kg + 3.2 kg) = v

<u>v = 20 m/s</u>

b) When the smaller object is moving:

(7.1 kg · 0 m/s + 3.2 kg · 29 m/s) / (7.1 kg + 3.2 kg) = v

<u>v = 9.0 m/s</u>

A 720 g softball is traveling at 15.0 m/s when caught. If the force of the glove on the ball is 520 N, what is the time it takes
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg

velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s

applied force, F = 520 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

F = ma = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.72 \ \times \ 15}{520} \\\\t = 0.021 \ s \\

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Is it possible to have negative velocity but positive acceleration? If so, what would this mean?
dusya [7]

Observe that the object below moves in the negative direction with a changing velocity. An object which moves in the negative direction has a negative velocity. If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion (in this case, a positive acceleration). The dot diagram shows that each consecutive dot is not the same distance apart (i.e., a changing velocity). The position-time graph shows that the slope is changing (meaning a changing velocity) and negative (meaning a negative velocity). The velocity-time graph shows a line with a positive (upward) slope (meaning that there is a positive acceleration); the line is located in the negative region of the graph (corresponding to a negative velocity). The acceleration-time graph shows a horizontal line in the positive region of the graph (meaning a positive acceleration).

I don't know how I can show you the figure
