Explanation :
The interaction between two objects is termed as the collision. The collision can be of two types i.e. elastic collision and inelastic collision.
In this case, two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. In an inelastic collision, the momentum before and after the collision remains the same but its kinetic energy gets lost.
After the collision, both the object sticks over each other and moves with one velocity.
Out of the given graph, the graph that shows a perfectly inelastic collision is attached. It shows that after the collision both the carts move with the same velocity.
Answer:
The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N
Explanation:
Mass = 888 kg
Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8
Final velocity ( V ) = 0
Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m
Now use third law of motion =
- 2 a s
Put all the values in above formula we get,
⇒ 0 = - 2 × a ×0.2667
⇒ a = 1.2
This is the deceleration of the box.
Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a
Put all the values in above formula we get,
T = 888 × 1.2
T = 1065.6 N
This is the value of tension on the cable.
Answer:
v=5.86 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Length of the string, l = 0.8 m
Maximum tension tolerated by the string, F = 15 N
Mass of the ball, m = 0.35 kg
We need to find the maximum speed the ball can have at the top of the circle. The ball is moving under the action of the centripetal force. The length of the string will be the radius of the circular path. The centripetal force is given by the relation as follows :
v is the maximum speed
Hence, the maximum speed of the ball is 5.86 m/s.
