Conservation of momentum<span> is a fundamental law of physics.

Yes, the law of conservation of momentum is satisfied. The total momentum before the collision is 1.5 kg • m/s, and the total momentum after the collision is 
<span>1.5 kg • m/s. The momentum stays the same after the collision.</span>

Complete Question

The compete question is shown on the first uploaded question

Answer:

The speed is  v  =  350 \  m/s  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  distance of separation is  d =  4.00 m  

  The distance of the listener to the center between the speakers is  I =  5.00 m

  The change in the distance of the speaker is by k  =  60 cm  =  0.6 \  m

    The frequency of both speakers is f =  700 \  Hz

Generally the distance of the listener to the first speaker is mathematically represented as

       L_1  =  \sqrt{l^2 + [\frac{d}{2} ]^2}

       L_1  =  \sqrt{5^2 + [\frac{4}{2} ]^2}

        L_1  =   5.39 \  m

Generally the distance of the listener to second speaker at its new position is  

          L_2  =  \sqrt{l^2 + [\frac{d}{2} ]^2 + k}

       L_2  =  \sqrt{5^2 + [\frac{4}{2} ]^2 + 0.6}

        L_2  =   5.64  \  m  

Generally the path difference between the speakers is mathematically represented as

        pD  = L_2 - L_1  =  \frac{n  *  \lambda}{2}

Here \lambda is the wavelength which is mathematically represented as

         \lambda =  \frac{v}{f}

=>    L_2 - L_1  =  \frac{n  *  \frac{v}{f}}{2}

=>    L_2 - L_1  =  \frac{n  *  v}{2f}  

=>    L_2 - L_1  =  \frac{n  *  v}{2f}  

Here n is the order of the maxima with  value of  n =  1  this because we are considering two adjacent waves

=>    5.64 - 5.39   =  \frac{1  *  v}{2*700}      

=>    v  =  350 \  m/s

Suppose two astronauts on a spacewalk are floating motionless in space, 3.0 m apart. Astronaut B tosses a 15.0 kg IMAX camera to
marta [7]

Answer:

\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

(we need the mass of the astronaut A)

Explanation:

We can solve this by using the conservation law of the linear momentum P. First we need to represent every mass as a particle. Also we can simplify this system of particles by considering only the astronaut A with an initial speed v_{iA} of 0 m/s and a mass m_{A} and the IMAX camera with an initial speed v_{ic} of 7.5 m/s and a mass m_{c} of 15.0 kg.

The law of conservation says that the linear momentum P (the sum of the products between all masses and its speeds) is constant in time. The equation for this is:

P_{i}=p_{ic}+p_{iA}\\P_{i}=m_{c}v_{ic}+m_{A} v_{iA}\\P_{i}=15*7.5 + m_{A}*0\\P_{i}=112.5 \frac{kg.m}{s}

By the law of conservation we know that P_{i} =P_{f}

For P_{f} (final linear momentum) we need to treat the collision as a plastic one (the two particles stick together after the encounter).

So:

P_{i} =P_{f}=112.5\\

112.5=(m_{c}+m_{A})v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{m_{c}+m_{A}}=v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

acceleration = 2.4525‬ m/s²

Explanation:

Data: Let m1 = 3.0 Kg, m2 = 5.0 Kg, g = 9.81 m/s²

Tension in the rope = T

Sol: m2 > m1

i) for downward motion of m2:

m2 a = m2 g - T

5 a = 5 × 9.81 m/s² - T  

⇒ T = 49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a     Eqn (a)‬

ii) for upward motion of m1

m a = T - m1 g

3 a = T - 3 × 9.8 m/s²

⇒ T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²   Eqn (b)

Equating Eqn (a) and(b)

49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a = T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²

49.05‬ m/s² - 29.43‬ m/s² = 3 a + 5 a

19.62 m/s² = 8 a

⇒ a = 2.4525‬ m/s²
