Given
Car 1
m1 = 1300 kg
v1 = 20 m/s
m2 = 900 kg
v2 = -15 m/s
(Negative sign shows that direction of car 2 is opposite to car 1)
Procedure
As per the conservation of linear momentum, "The total momentum of the system before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision". And this applies to the perfectly inelastic collision as well. Then the expression is,
Thus, we can conclude that the speed and direction of the cars after the impact is 5.68 m/s towards the first car.
<u>C</u> is the correct answer, because energy cannot be created neither destroy. The energy is changing from chemical to from electric to light, and from light to heat.
If the wavelength<span> is given, the energy can be determined by first using the wave equation (c = λ × ν) to </span>find<span> the frequency, then using Planck's equation to </span>calculate<span> energy. Use the equations above to answer the following questions. 1. Ultraviolet radiation has a frequency of 6.8 × 1015 1/s.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The unknown charge can not remain in between the charge given because force on the middle charge will act in the same direction due to both the remaining charges.
So the unknown charge is somewhere on negative side of x axis . Its charge will be negative . Let it be - Q and let it be at distance - x on x axis.
force on it due to rest of the charges will be equal and opposite so
k3q Q / x² =k 8q Q / (L+x)²
8x² = 3 (L+x)²
2√2 x = √3 (L+x)
2√2 x - √3 x = √3 L
x(2√2 - √3 ) = √3 L
x = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )
Let us consider the balancing force on 3q
force on it due to -Q and -8q will be equal
kQ . 3q / x² = k3q 8q / L²
Q = 8q (x² / L²)
so charge required = - 8q (x² / L²)
and its distance from x on negative x side = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )
Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:
In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.
We have following information:
m₁=3 kg
m₂=? kg
v₁=x m/s
v₂=0 m/s
v'1 = v'2 = 1/3 * v₁
Now we insert given information and solve for m₂:
3*v₁ + 0*? = 3*1/3*v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
3v₁ = v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
2v₁ = m₂*1/3*v₁
2 = m₂*1/3
m₂= 6kg
Mass of second mud ball is 6kg.
