A 0.24 kg mass with a speed of 0.60 m/s has a head-on collision with a 0.26 kg mass that is traveling in the opposite direction

at a speed of 0.20 m/s. Assuming that the collision is perfectly inelastic, what is the final speed of the combined masses?

The  final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

According to the law of collision, the sum of the momentum of the bodies before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision.

Mathematically;

m1u1 - m2u2 = (m1+m1)v

  • v is the final speed of the combined masses.

Substituting the given parameters;

0.24(0.6) - 0.26(0.2) = (0.24+0.26)v

0.144 - 0.052 = 0.5v

0.092 = 0.5v

v = 0.092/0.5

v = 0.184m/s

Hence the final speed of the combined masses is 0.186m/s

If A > B, under what condition is |A-BI=|A|- IB|? a. Vectors A and B are in opposite directions b. Vectors A and B are in the
kupik [55]

Answer:

b) Vectors A and B are in the same direction.

Explanation:

To understand this problem we will say that vector A has a magnitude of 5 units and vector B a magnitude of 3 units. In the subtraction of vectors the initial parts of vectors always bind together. And the vector resulting from the subtraction is traced from the end of the second vector (B) to the end of the first vector (A).

The length of the resultant vector will be 5 - 3 = 2

In the attached image, we analyze case a), b), and d)

For a)

As we can see in the attached image the resultant vector has a length of 8 units.

For d)

As we can see in the attached image the resultant vector has a length of 5.83 units.

For b)

The resultant vector has a length of 2 units.

Therefore the case given in b) is true

PLEASE ANSWER-Why are loose electrons needed for heat conduction?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Why do metals conduct heat so well? The electrons in metal are delocalised electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.
