Answer:
0.074m/s
Explanation:
We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

Where,
= mass of ball
= mass of the person
= Velocity of ball before collision
= Velocity of the person before collision
= velocity of ball afer collision
= velocity of the person after collision
We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,


Re-arrenge to find
,

Our values are,
= 0.425kg
= 12m/s
= 68.5kg
= 0m/s
Substituting,


<em />
<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>
<u>Answer</u>
3.7 Km south
<u>Explanation</u>
The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.
Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).
Now lets add the two values.
(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4
= - 3.7 Km But negative was towards south.
∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.
Answer:
The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position and the P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
Explanation:
- A child is swinging on swing up and down has both kinetic and potential energy.
- The total mechanical energy of the system is conserved throughout the system. At any instant the total mechanical energy is given by,
E = K.E + P.E
- The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position.
- The P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
- And when K.E is maximum P.E becomes minimum and vice versa as per the law of conservation of energy.
