arsen [322]
Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,

   KE = 0.5mv²

At initial conditions,

  m₁:  KE = 0.5(0.28 kg)(0.75 m/s)² = 0.07875 J

  m₂ : KE = 0.5(0.45 kg)(0 m/s)² = 0 J

Due to the momentum balance,

   m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)(V)

Substituting the known values,

   (0.29 kg)(0.75 m/s) + (0.43 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(V)

   V = 0.2977 m/s

The kinetic energy is,
   KE = (0.5)(0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(0.2977 m/s)²
   KE = 0.03146 J

The difference between the kinetic energies is 0.0473 J.

Two objects interact with each other and with no other objects. Initially object A has a speed of 5 m/s and object B has a speed
Radda [10]

Answer:

We can conclude that there is a decrease in kinetic energy of the particles due to their elastic collision, since kinetic energy is directly proportional to squared velocity of the particles.

Explanation:

Given:

initial velocity of particle A, Ua = 5m/s

initial velocity of particle B, Ub = 10 m/s

final velocity of particle A, Va = 4m/s

final velocity of particle B, Vb = 7m/s

For particle A:

The final velocity is 1 less than the initial velocity.

For particle B:

The final velocity is 3 less than the initial velocity.

We can conclude that there is a loss in kinetic energy due to elastic collision of the two particles, since kinetic energy is directly proportional to squared velocity of the particles. A decrease in velocity means decrease in kinetic energy.

Which of the following characteristics of Earth's relationship to the Sun explains the existence of Earth's seasons? Choose all
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbital plane.

Earth orbits around the Sun, completing one orbit each year

Explanation:

The earth tilt at an angle causes the sun rays to hit the earth surface around the globe differently. Due to the oblique angle that the rays hit the subtropics and poles, there is less heat intensity compared to the equator where the sun rays hit the earth's surface at a more or less right angle.

The earth rotation around the sun also causes seasons coupled with the earth’s tilts. As the earth rotates, in one point in the orbit, the northern or southern hemispheres will be tilted towards the sun. The phenomenon varies the local temperatures of particular regions of the earth hence driving seasonal climatic changes.

Two sinusoidal waves travel along the same string. They have the same wavelength and frequency. Their amplitudes are ym1 = 2.5 m
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

0.5 m

Explanation:

Givens:

ym1 = 2.5 mm

ym2 = 4.5 mm

Ф_1=π / 4

Ф_2=π / 2

We have 2 ways to solve this problem. The first one given that the 2 waves have the frequency then we know that the resultant wave amplitude is

Ym = (ym1 + ym2)cos(Ф_2/2)

By substitution we have  

Ym= (0.025 + 0.045)cos(π/4) = 0.496 m

The second one is it treat them as Phasors where the phase between them is Ф_2=π / 2 Therefore  

Ym^2=(ym1^2+ym2^2)

So we have Ym=√0.025^2+0.045^2

                         = 0.5 m

Katen [24]

Answer:

Option(a) is the correct answer to the given question .

Explanation:

The main objective of the angular momentum is evaluating however much the rotational movement as well as the angular velocity in the entity does have.The angular momentum is measured in terms of kgm^{2 }\  / s.

  • In the given question the skateboarder rides quickly up the bottom of a bowl-shaped surface and climb into the air.it means it is rotational movement also it is not touching anything so it is angular momentum.
  • All the other option is incorrect because it is not follows the given scenario
