A hockey puck with a mass of 0.16 kg travels at a velocity of 40 m/s toward a goalkeeper. The goalkeeper has a mass of 120 kg an

d is at rest. Assuming a closed system, find the total momentum of the goalkeeper and puck after the puck is caught by the goalkeeper. In 3-4 sentences, identify the object with the greater momentum after the puck is caught and explain your reasoning.

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass of a body and its velocity.

Given the mass of the puck m1 = 0.16kg

velocity of the puck v1 = 40m/s

Given the mass of the goalkeeper m2 = 120kg

velocity of the goalkeeper v2= 0m/s (goal keeper at rest)

The total momentum of the goalkeeper and puck after the puck is caught by the goalkeeper is expressed as:

m1v1 + m2v2 (their momentum will be added since they collide)

= 0.16(40) + 120(0)

= 0.16(40) + 0

= 6.4kgm/s

Let us calculate their common velocity using the conservation of momentum formula;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

6.4 = (0.16+120)v

6.4 = 120.16v

v = 6.4/120.16

v = 0.053m/s

Hence after collision, both objects move at a velocity of 0.053m/s

Momentum of the puck after collision = m1v

Momentum of the puck after collision = 0.16*0.053m/s

Momentum of the puck after collision = 0.0085kgm/s

Momentum of the keeper after collision = m2v

Momentum of the keeper after collision = 120*0.053m/s

Momentum of the keeper after collision = 6.36kgm/s

From the calculation above, it can be seen that the keeper has the greater momentum after the puck was caught since the momentum of the keeper after collision is greater than that of the puck

The equilibrium fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver (Ag) at 600°C is 1 × 10-6. Calculate the number of vacancies

algol [13]

Answer :

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

Explanation:

Given,

Atomic mass of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Density of silver = 10.35 g/cm^3

Converting to g/m^3,

= 10.35 g/cm^3 × 10^6cm^3/m^3

= 10.35 × 10^6 g/m^3

Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10^23 atoms/mol

Fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver = 1 × 10^-6

Nag = (Na * Da)/Aag

Where,

Nag = Total number of lattice sites in Ag

Na = Avogadro's number

Da = Density of silver

Aag = Atomic weight of silver

= (6.022 × 10^23 × (10.35 × 10^6)/107.87

= 5.778 × 10^28 atoms/m^3

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^28 × 1 × 10^-6

= 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

While ice skating, you unintentionally crash into a person. Your mass is 60 kg, and you are traveling east at 8.0 m/s with respe

kaheart [24]

Answer:

6.18 m/s

Explanation:

Roller skate collision

The final direction of the system (me=M + person=P) velocity vector is at an angle; Ф, to the direction running south to north. Apply the component form of the impulse-momentum equation, firstly;

x-axis component form (+x east);

$P_{Miy}$ + $p_{Piy}$ + $j_{y}$ = $P_{Mfy}$ + $P_{pfy}$

$m_{Mu_{Miy}+ m_{pu_{piy}}+0=(m_{M}+m_{p})V_{f} sin$ Ф

60 ·8 + 0 = (60 + 80) $V_{f}sin$ Ф

480 = 140 $V_{f} sin$ Ф................. (I)

y-axis component form (+y north);

$P_{Mix}$ + $p_{Pix}$ + $j_{x}$ = $P_{Mfx}$ + $P_{pfx}$

$m_{Mu_{Mix}+ m_{pu_{pix}}+0=(m_{M}+m_{p})V_{f} cos$ Ф

0 + 80.9 = (60 + 80) $V_{f}cos$ Ф

720= 140 $V_{f}cos$ Ф

140Vf= $\frac{720}{cos}$ Ф......................................(2)

Substituting (2) into (1) to give the angle;

480 = 720tan Ф

Ф = arctan(0.67) =33.69°.......................(3)

Evaluating (1) with (3) gives the velocity magnitude

480 = 140Vfsin 33.69°

Vf=6.18 m/s

note 1:

This angle corresponds to a direction; 90° - 33.69° = 56.31° north of east.

Two vertical springs have identical spring constants, but one has a ball of mass m hanging from it and the other has a ball of m

OverLord2011 [107]

To solve this problem we will start from the definition of energy of a spring mass system based on the simple harmonic movement. Using the relationship of equality and balance between both systems we will find the relationship of the amplitudes in terms of angular velocities. Using the equivalent expressions of angular velocity we will find the final ratio. This is,

The energy of the system having mass m is,

$E_m = \frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2$

The energy of the system having mass 2m is,

$E_{2m} = \frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2$

For the two expressions mentioned above remember that the variables mean

m = mass

$\omega =$ Angular velocity

A = Amplitude

The energies of the two system are same then,

$E_m = E_{2m}$

$\frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2=\frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2$

$\frac{A_1^2}{A_2^2} = \frac{2\omega_2^2}{\omega_1^2}$

Remember that

$k = m\omega^2 \rightarrow \omega^2 = k/m$

Replacing this value we have then

$\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{\frac{2(k/m_2)}{(k/m_1)^2}}$

$\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_1}}$

But the value of the mass was previously given, then

$\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m}{2m}}$

$\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\frac{A_1}{A_2} = 1$

Therefore the ratio of the oscillation amplitudes it is the same.

The total negative charge on the electrons in 1kg of helium (atomic number 2, molar mass 4) is____________.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

$n = \frac{1000}{4}$

= 250 moles.

N = n×6.02× $10^{23}$

= 1.505× $10^{26}$

Total charge = (1.505× $10^{26}$ ) × (1.6× $10^{-19}$ )

= 2.4× $10^{7}$ C.
