What makes up a atom

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

They're typically made up of three main parts: protons, neutrons and electrons. Think of the protons and neutrons as together forming a “sun”, or nucleus, at the centre of the system. The electrons orbit this nucleus, like planets. If atoms are impossibly small, these subatomic particles are even more so.

A biker first accelerates from 0.0 m/s to 6.0 m/s in 6 s, then continues at this speed for 5 s. What is the total distance trave

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

48m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Final velocity = 6m/s

Time, t = 6 secs

Time, T2 = 5 secs

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

$Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}$

Substituting into the equation;

$a = \frac{6 - 0}{6}$

$a = \frac{6}{6}$

Acceleration, a = 1m/s²

<u>To find the distance covered in the first phase;</u>

<em>Solving for distance, we would use the second equation of motion;</em>

$S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}$

<em>Substituting the values into the equation;</em>

$S = 0(6) + \frac {1}{2}*1*(6)^{2}$

$S = 0 + \frac {1}{2}*1*36$

$S = 0.5 *36$

Distance, S1 = 18m

<u>For the second phase, time T2 = 5 secs;</u>

<em>Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;</em>

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

<em>Making distance the subject of formula, we have;</em>

$Distance, S = speed * time$

<em>Substituting into the above equation;</em>

$Distance, S = 6 * 5$

Distance, S2 = 30m

Total distance = S1 + S2 = 18m + 30m = 48m

Total distance = 48m

<em>Therefore, the total distance traveled by the biker is 48m.</em>

a moving billiard ball collides with an identical stationary billiard ball in an elastic collision. after the collision, the sec

MArishka [77]

A billiard ball collides with a stationary identical billiard ball to make it move. If the collision is perfectly elastic, the first ball comes to rest after collision.

<h3>Why does the first ball comes to rest after collision ?</h3>

Let m be the mass of the two identical balls.

u1 = velocity before the collision of ball 1

u2 = 0 = velocity of second ball that is at rest

v1 and v2 are the velocities of the balls after the collision.

From the conservation of momentum,

∴ mu1 + mu2 = mv1 + mv2

∴ mu1 = mv1 + mv2

∴ u1 = v1 + v2

In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system before and after collision remains same.

$\frac{1}{2} mu_1^2+0=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2$

∴ $\frac{1}{2} m(v_1+v_2 )^2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2$

∴ $\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2+mv_1 v_2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2$

∴ $mv$ ₁ $v$ ₂ = 0

It is impossible for the mass to be zero.
Because the second ball moves, velocity v2 cannot be zero.
As a result, the velocity of the first ball, v1, is zero, indicating that it comes to rest after collision.

<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

An elastic collision is a collision between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains constant. There is no net transfer of kinetic energy into other forms such as heat, noise, or potential energy in an ideal, fully elastic collision.
