A 50 g tennis ball travels at a velocity of 15 m/s, hits a basketball with a mass of 600 g that is stationary on a frictionless

surface and then rebounds back in the opposite direction with a velocity of -6 m/s . How fast will the basketball be moving after the collision? m/s

Answer:

1.75 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(50 g) (15 m/s) + (600 g) (0 m/s) = (50 g) (-6 m/s) + (600 g) v

v = 1.75 m/s

MArishka [77]

Complete Question:

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bury itself just below the surface. What would have to be the mass of this asteroid, in terms of the earth’s mass M, for the day to become 25.0% longer than it presently is as a result of the collision? Assume that the asteroid is very small compared to the earth and that the earth is uniform throughout.

Answer:

m = 0.001 M

When numbers are very small or very large, it is convenient to either express the value in scientific notation and/or by using a
Oxana [17]

Answer:

5 mg, 5\cdot 10^{-3}g

Explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite the mass in grams using scientific notation.

we have:

m = 0.005 g

To rewrite it in scientific notation, we must count by how many digits we have to move the dot on the right - in this case three. So in scientific notation is

m=5\cdot 10^{-3}g

If  we want to convert into milligrams, we must remind that

1 g = 1000 mg

So we can use the proportion

1 g : 1000 mg = 0.005 g : x

and we find

x=\frac{(1000 mg)(0.005 g)}{1 g}=5 mg

Air at 3 104 kg/s and 27 C enters a rectangular duct that is 1m long and 4mm 16 mm on a side. A uniform heat flux of 600 W/m2 is
ad-work [718]

Answer:

T_{out}=27.0000077 ºC

Explanation:

First, let's write the energy balance over the duct:

H_{out}=H_{in}+Q

It says that the energy that goes out from the duct (which is in enthalpy of the mass flow) must be equals to the energy that enters in the same way plus the heat that is added to the air. Decompose the enthalpies to the mass flow and specific enthalpies:

m*h_{out}=m*h_{in}+Q\\m*(h_{out}-h_{in})=Q

The enthalpy change can be calculated as Cp multiplied by the difference of temperature because it is supposed that the pressure drop is not significant.

m*Cp(T_{out}-T_{in})=Q

So, let's isolate T_{out}:

T_{out}-T_{in}=\frac{Q}{m*Cp}\\T_{out}=T_{in}+\frac{Q}{m*Cp}

The Cp of the air at 27ºC is 1007\frac{J}{kgK} (Taken from Keenan, Chao, Keyes, “Gas Tables”, Wiley, 1985.); and the only two unknown are T_{out} and Q.

Q can be found knowing that the heat flux is 600W/m2, which is a rate of heat to transfer area; so if we know the transfer area, we could know the heat added.

The heat transfer area is the inner surface area of the duct, which can be found as the perimeter of the cross section multiplied by the length of the duct:

Perimeter:

P=2*H+2*A=2*0.004m+2*0.016m=0.04m

Surface area:

A=P*L=0.04m*1m=0.04m^2

Then, the heat Q is:

600\frac{W}{m^2} *0.04m^2=24W

Finally, find the exit temperature:

T_{out}=T_{in}+\frac{Q}{m*Cp}\\T_{out}=27+\frac{24W}{3104\frac{kg}{s} *1007\frac{J}{kgK} }\\T_{out}=27.0000077

T_{out}=27.0000077 ºC

The temperature change so little because:

  • The mass flow is so big compared to the heat flux.
  • The transfer area is so little, a bigger length would be required.
