Block B (mass 7.50 kg ) is at rest at the edge of a smooth platform, 2.60 m above the floor. Block A (mass 4.00 kg ) is sliding

with a speed of 8.00 m/s along the platform toward block B. A strikes B and rebounds with a speed of 2.00 m/s. The collision projects B horizontally off the platform.
What is the speed of B just before it strikes the floor?

Answer:

speed of block B after collision is 5.33 m/s

speed of block B before strike speed 8.9 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass = 7.50 kg

height = 2.60 m

speed =8.00 m/s

rebound speed = 2.00 m/s.

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1vr + m2v .................1

4 × 8 + 7.50 × 0 = 4 × (-2) + 7.50 × v

solve it we get

v = 5.33 m/s

so here speed of block B after collision is 5.33 m/s

and

and now by conservation of energy

we get here strike speed that is

PE(i) + KE(i) = PE(f) + KE(f) ..............2

m×g×h + 0.5 × m × (v(i))² = 0 + 0.5 ×m×(v(f))²

m ( g×h + 0.5×(v(i))²) = 0.5 ×m×(v(f))²

9.8 × 2.60 + 0.5 × 5.33² = 0.5 × (v(f))²

solve it we get

v(f)² = $\frac{39.7}{0.5}$

v(f) = $\sqrt{\frac{39.7}{0.5}}$

v(f) = 8.9 m/s

so speed of block B before strike speed 8.9 m/s

While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

A skier is moving down a snowy hill with an acceleration of 0.40 m/s2. The angle of the slope is 5.0∘ to the horizontal. What is

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

1.25377 m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass of person

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$\mu$ = Coefficient of friction

$\theta$ = Slope

From Newton's second law

$mgsin\theta-f=ma\\\Rightarrow mgsin\theta-\mu mgcos\theta=ma\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{gsin\theta-a}{gcos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{9.81\times sin5-0.4}{9.81\times cos5}\\\Rightarrow \mu=0.04655$

Applying $\mu$ to the above equation and $\theta=10^{\circ}$

$mgsin\theta-\mu mgcos\theta=ma\\\Rightarrow a=gsin\theta-\mu gcos\theta\\\Rightarrow a=9.81\times sin10-0.04655\times 9.81\times cos10\\\Rightarrow a=1.25377\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the same skier when she is moving down a hill is 1.25377 m/s²

A small rock is launched straight upward from the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. The initial speed of the rock is twice

Scorpion4ik [409]

If gravitational effects from other objects are negligible, the speed of the rock at a very great distance from the planet will approach a value of $\sqrt{3} v_{e}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To express velocity which is too far from the planet and escape velocity by using the energy conservation, we get

Rock’s initial velocity , $v_{i}=2 v_{e}$ . Here the radius is R, so find the escape velocity as follows,

$\frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=0$

$\frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}=\frac{G M m}{R}$

$v_{e}^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}$

$v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}$

Where, M = Planet’s mass and G = constant.

From given conditions,

Surface potential energy can be expressed as, $U_{i}=-\frac{G M m}{R}$

R tend to infinity when far away from the planet, so $v_{f}=0$

Then, kinetic energy at initial would be,

$k_{i}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{i}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}$

Similarly, kinetic energy at final would be,

$k_{f}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}$

Here, $v_{f}=\text { final velocity }$

Now, adding potential and kinetic energies of initial and final and equating as below, find the final velocity as

$U_{i}+k_{i}=k_{f}+v_{f}$

$\frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}+0$

$\frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}$

'm' and $\frac{1}{2}$ as common on both sides, so gets cancelled, we get as

$4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{2 G M}{R}=v_{f}^{2}$

We know, $v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}$ , it can be wriiten as $\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}$ , we get

$4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=v_{f}^{2}$

$v_{f}^{2}=3\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}$

Taking squares out, we get,

$v_{f}=\sqrt{3} v_{e}$

A diver in the pike position (legs straight, hands on ankles) usually makes only one or one-and-a-half rotations. To make two or

Korolek [52]

Answer:

from the above analysis we can say that the angular velocity in the later case is more than that of the former case. This means that the number of rotation made in the truck case is more than that made in pike position.

Explanation:

This can be explained on the basis of conservation of angular momentum.

This means the initial and the final angular velocity is conserved. Consider initial position (1)in the pike and final position in the be truck position. So there inertia's will also be different.

⇒ $I_1\omega_1 = I_2\omega_2$

$\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{\omega_2}{\omega_1}$

also,

$I_1= mr_1^2$

$I_2= mr_2^2$

since, $r_2^2$

$I_2^2$

therefore,

$\omega_1^2$

So, from the above analysis we can say that the angular velocity in the later case is more than that of the former case. This means that the number of rotation made in the truck case is more than that made in pike position.

The dial of a scale looks like this: 00.0kg. A physicist placed a spring on it. The dial read 00.6kg. He then placed a metal cha

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

d. The scale's resolution is too low to read the change in mass

Explanation:

If we want to find the change in energy of the spring, we will have to use the Hooke's Law. Hooke's Law states that:

F = kx

since,

w = Fd

dw = Fdx

integrating and using value of F, we get:

ΔE = (0.5)kx²

where,

ΔE = Energy added to spring

k = spring constant

x = displacement

The spring constant is typically in range of 4900 to 29400 N/m.

So if we take the extreme case of 29400 N/m and lets say we assume an unusually, extreme case of 1 m compression, we get the value of energy added to be:

ΔE = (0.5)(29400 N/m)(1 m)²

ΔE = 1.47 x 10⁴ J

Now, if we convert this energy to mass from Einstein's equation, we get:

ΔE = Δmc²

Δm = ΔE/c²

Δm = (1.47 x 10⁴ J)/(3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

<u>Δm = 4.9 x 10⁻¹³ kg</u>

As, you can see from the answer that even for the most extreme cases the value of mass associated with the additional energy is of very low magnitude.

Since, the scale only gives the mass value upto 1 decimal place.

Thus, it can not determine such a small change. So, the correct option is:

<u>d. The scale's resolution is too low to read the change in mass</u>
