A cue ball has a mass of 0.5 kg. During a game of pool, the cue ball is struck and now has a velocity of 3 . When it strikes a s

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 3 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: during the collision between the two balls, the total momentum of the system before the collision and after the collision must be conserved:

$p_i = p_f$

The total momentum before the collision is given only by the cue ball, since the solid ball is initially at rest, therefore

$p_i = m_c u_c = (0.5 kg)(3 m/s)=1.5 kg m/s$

So, the final total momentum will also be

$p_f = 1.5 kg m/s$

And the total momentum after the collision is given only by the solid ball, since the cue ball is now at rest, therefore:

$p_f = m_s v_s$

from which we find the velocity of the solid ball

$v_s = \frac{p_f}{m_s}=\frac{1.5 kg m/s}{0.5 kg}=3 m/s$

A car generates 2,552 N and weighs 2,250 pounds. what is the rate of acceleration

Lilit [14]

Ans: a = 2.50 m/s^2

Explanation:
First convert the mass in its standard unit i.e. kilogram(kg):
2250 lbs = 1020.583kg

Next use Newton's Second law:
F = ma

Where F = 2552N
m = 1020.583kg

=> a = (2552/1020.583)
a = 2.50 m/s^2

g A 1.45-kg block is pushed against a vertical wall by means of a spring (k = 860 N/m). The coefficient of static friction betwe

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The minimum compression is $x= 0.046m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m_b = 1.45 kg$

The spring constant is $k = 860 N/m$

The coefficient of static friction is $\mu = 0.36$

For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis

Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as

$F_y = m_b*g$

And the force acting on the horizontal axis is force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as

$F_x = k *x * \mu$

where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping

Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject

$x = \frac{m_b * g}{k * \mu}$

substituting values we have

$x = \frac{1.45 * 9.8}{860 *0.36}$

$x= 0.046m$

20. In a parallel RL circuit, 10 mA flows through the resistor and 4 mA flows through the inductor. What phase angle separates v

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Option D: 21.8 degrees

Explanation:

In a parallel RL circuit, the current in the resistor R and that in the inductor L are separated among themselves 90 degrees as illustrated in the attached image. In the image the current in the resistor is represented in orange, that of the inductor in blue, and the total current (vector addition of the previous two) is represented in red, forming a certain angle (theta) with respect to the current in the resistor. The output voltage is the same as the input voltage as measured over the resistor R.

Therefore, the phase angle that separated output voltage and total current can be obtained using the fact that tan(phase angle) = $\frac{I_l}{I_R} = \frac{x}{y} \frac{4}{10}$ , therefore the angle is the arctangent of 4/10:

$arctang(\frac{4}{10} )= 21.801$ degrees.
