The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
= (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)
= (1 kg) (2.25 m²/s²)
= 2.25 joules.
Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:
Energy is never created or destroyed.
If it seems that some energy disappeared,
it actually had to go somewhere.
And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
it actually had to come from somewhere.
The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision. The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.
Answer:
There is an inward force acting on the can
Explanation:
This inward force is known as Centripetal force and it is responsible for making the can whirl on the end of a string in circle and it is also directed towards the center around which the can is moving.
Answer:
The time to boil the water is 877 s
Explanation:
The first thing we must do is calculate the external resistance (R) of the circuit, from the description we notice that it is a series circuit, by which the resistors are added
V = i (r + R)
We replace we calculate
r + R = V / i
R = v / i - r
R = 10/12 -0.04
R = 0.793 Ω
We calculate the power supplied
P = V i = I² R
P = 12² 0.793
P = 114 W
This is the power dissipated in the external resistance
We use the relationship, that power is work per unit of time and that work is the variation of energy
P = E / t
t = E / P
t = 100 10³/114
t = 877 s
The time to boil the water is 877 s
Answer:
The energy of the system is 15 J.
Explanation:
Given that,
Energy E = 2.5 J
Amplitude = 10 cm
We need to calculate the spring constant
Using formula of mechanical energy of the system

Put the value into the formula



If the block is replaced by a block with twice the mass of the original block
Amplitude = 6 cm
We need to calculate the energy
Using formula of mechanical energy

Put the value into the formula


Hence, The energy of the system is 15 J.
