Are momentum and kinetic energy conserved during an inelastic collision?

nevsk [136]

Energy and momentum are always conserved. Kinetic energy is not conserved in an inelastic collision though. And that is because it is converted to another form of energy

Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 12.5 mg and can jump to a height of 42.3 cm. The takeoff velocity is achieved a

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

2065.005 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-0^2}{2\times h}\\\Rightarrow v^2=2ah\ m/s$

Now H-h = 42.3 - 0.2 = 42.1 cm = 0.421 m

The final velocity will be the initial velocity

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 0^2-u^2=2gs\\\Rightarrow -2ah=2\times g(H-h)\\\Rightarrow -2a0.002=2\times g0.421\\\Rightarrow a=-\frac{0.421\times -9.81}{0.002}\\\Rightarrow a=2065.005\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of the frog is 2065.005 m/s²

Starting at 48th Street, Dylan rides his bike due east on Meridian Road with the wind at his back. He rides for 20 min at 15 mph

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

55 min

Explanation:

The missing question is: how long does the trip take?

First of all, we need to find the initial distance covered by Dylan. In the first part, he rides for

$t_1 = 20 min = \frac{1}{3}h$

at a speed of

v = 15 mph

therefore, the distance he covered is

$d = v t_1 = (15)(\frac{1}{3})=5 mi$

Then Dylan stopped for a time of

$t_2 = 5 min = \frac{5}{60}=\frac{1}{12}h$

Finally, on the way back, Dylan covered again this distance but travelling at a new speed of

v = 10 mph

So, the time he took is

$t_3 = \frac{d}{v}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}h = 30 min$

So, the total time of the trip was

$t=t_1 + t_2 + t_3 = 20 min + 5 min + 30 min = 55 min$

A battery charger is connected to a dead battery and delivers a current of 3.5 a for 4 hours, keeping the voltage across the bat

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The power delivered is equal to the product between the voltage V and the current I:
$P=VI=(16 V)(3.5 A)=56 W$

This power is delivered for a total time of $t=4h=4 \cdot 3600 s = 14400 s$ , so the total energy delivered to the battery is
$E=Pt = (56 W)(14400 s)=806400 J=806.4 kJ$
