The final momentum of the ball after collision is 13 kg.m/s.

The given parameters;

initial momentum of the box, P₁ = 15 kg.m/s
initial momentum of the ball, P₂ = 3 kg.m/s
final momentum of the ball, P₃ = 5 kg.m/s

Let the final momentum of the ball after collision = P₄

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the final momentum of the ball after collision;

total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

P₁ + P₂ = P₃ + P₄

15 + 3 = 5 + P₄

18 = 5 + P₄

18 - 5 = P₄

13 = P₄

Thus, the final momentum of the ball after collision is 13 kg.m/s.

Which two surfaces have the lowest coefficient of friction

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

As an example, ice on steel has a low coefficient of friction – the two materials slide past each other easily – while rubber on pavement has a high coefficient of friction – the materials do not slide past each other easily. The coefficients of friction ranges from near 0 to greater than 1.

A 10.0g piece of copper wire, sitting in the sun reaches a temperature of 80.0 C. how many Joules are released when the copper c

Zolol [24]

Answer:

150.8 J

Explanation:

The heat released by the copper wire is given by:

$Q=mC_s \Delta T$

where:

m = 10.0 g is the mass of the wire

Cs = 0.377 j/(g.C) is the specific heat capacity of copper

$\Delta T=40.0 C - 80.0 C=-40.0 C$ is the change in temperature of the wire

Substituting into the equation, we find

$Q=(10.0 g)(0.377 J/gC)(-40.0^{\circ})=-150.8 J$

And the sign is negative because the heat is released by the wire.
