The collision is a form of inelastic collision because the it forms a single mass after is collides. So it can be solve by momentum balance

( 0.08 kg * 50 m/s ) + ( 0.06 kg * 50 m/s) = ( 0.08 + 0.06 kg ) v

V = 50 m/s

So the kinetic energy lost is

KE = 0.5 (50 m/s)^2) *( 0.14 – 0.08kg )

KE = 75 J

A force of 10 newtons toward the right is exerted on a
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction of wooden floor μ = .4

force of friction = μ R , R is reaction force of floor

R = mg = weight of body

R = 25 N

force of friction = .4 x 25 = 10 N

Net force on the crate = 10 - 10 = zero .

Net force on the body will be nil.

A torsional pendulum consists of a disk of mass 450 g and radius 3.5 cm, hanging from a wire. If the disk is given an initial an
Montano1993 [528]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion, starting from the definition of angular velocity in terms of frequency, to verify the angular displacement and its respective derivative, let's start:

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi (2.5)

\omega = 5\pi rad/s

The angular displacement is given as the form:

\theta (t) = \theta_0 cos(\omega t)

In the equlibrium we have to t=0, \theta(t) = \theta_0 and in the given position we have to

\theta(t) = \theta_0 cos(5\pi t)

Derived the expression we will have the equivalent to angular velocity

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2.7rad/s

Replacing,

\theta_0(sin(5\pi t))5\pi = 2.7

Finally

\theta_0 = \frac{2.7}{5\pi}rad = 9.848\°

Therefore the maximum angular displacement is 9.848°

the temperature of a 2.0-kg increases by 5*c when 2,000 J of thermal energy are added to the block. What is the specific heat of
nata0808 [166]
To calculate the specific heat capacity of an object or substance, we can use the formula

c = E / m△T

Where
c as the specific heat capacity,
E as the energy applied (assume no heat loss to surroundings),
m as mass and
△T as the energy change.

Now just substitute the numbers given into the equation.

c = 2000 / 2 x 5
c = 2000/ 10
c = 200

Therefore we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of the block is 200 Jkg^-1°C^-1

A nonuniform, 80.0-g, meterstick balances when the support is placed at the 51.0-cm mark. At what location on the meterstick sho
Gnoma [55]

Answer:34 cm

Explanation:

Given

mass of meter stick m=80 gm

stick is balanced when support is placed at 51 cm mark

Let us take 5 gm tack is placed at x cm on meter stick so that balancing occurs at x=50 cm mark

balancing torque

80\times 10^{-3}(51-50)=5\times 10^{-3}(50-x)

80=5(50-x)

80=250-5x

5x=170

x=\frac{170}{5}

x=34 cm

Joel uses a claw hammer to remove a nail from a wall. He applies a force of 40 newtons on the hammer. The hammer applies a force
jarptica [38.1K]

Hi!


Mechanical advantage is defined as the<em> ratio of force produced by an object to the force that is applied to it.</em>

In our case, this would be the ratio of the force applied by the claw hammer on the nail to the force Joel applies to the claw hammer, which is

160:40 or 4:1

So the mechanical advantage of the hammer is four.


Hope this helps!
