it possible that the net kinetic energy for two objects be zero while the net momentum is zero? Explain.

1 answer:

4 0

Of course. That's what you have when both objects are at rest. I'm guessing that you left a word out of the question, and it actually says that the net kinetic energy is NOT zero. In that case, the answer is still 'yes', but you have to think about it for a second.

Answer:

Common Sense

Explanation:

The chick has probably seen other chicks get caught by the Hawk and knows not to go near, or saw a giant bird flying straight towards it and used common sense to identify it as danger and run away. Although if this is for a test or a grade or something, please do not use the answer, it is most likely incorrect. This is honestly my best answer.

Two billiard balls of equal mass move at right angles and meet at the origin of an xy coordinate system. Initially ball A is mov

frez [133]

Answer:

Speed of ball A after collision is 3.7 m/s

Speed of ball B after collision is 2 m/s

Direction of ball A after collision is towards positive x axis

Total momentum after collision is m×4·21 kgm/s

Total kinetic energy after collision is m×8·85 J

Explanation:

<h3>If we consider two balls as a system as there is no external force initial momentum of the system must be equal to the final momentum of the system</h3>

Let the mass of each ball be m kg

v $_{1}$ be the velocity of ball A along positive x axis

v $_{2}$ be the velocity of ball A along positive y axis

u be the velocity of ball B along positive y axis

Conservation of momentum along x axis

m×3·7 = m× v $_{1}$

∴ v $_{1}$ = 3.7 m/s along positive x axis

Conservation of momentum along y axis

m×2 = m×u + m× v $_{2}$

2 = u + v $_{2}$ → equation 1

<h3>Assuming that there is no permanent deformation between the balls we can say that it is an elastic collision</h3><h3>And for an elastic collision, coefficient of restitution = 1</h3>

∴ relative velocity of approach = relative velocity of separation

-2 = v $_{2}$ - u → equation 2

By adding both equations 1 and 2 we get

v $_{2}$ = 0

∴ u = 2 m/s along positive y axis

Kinetic energy before collision and after collision remains constant because it is an elastic collision

Kinetic energy = (m×2² + m×3·7²)÷2

= 8·85×m J

Total momentum = m×√(2² + 3·7²)

= m× 4·21 kgm/s

A gas is compressed from 600 cm3 to 200cm3 at a constant pressure of 400 kpa. at the same time, 100 j of heat energy is transfer

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The initial volume of the gas is
$V_i = 600 cm^3$
while its final volume is
$V_f = 200 cm^3$
so its variation of volume is
$\Delta V = V_f - V-i = 200 cm^3 - 600 cm^3 = -400 cm^3 = -400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3$

The pressure is constant, and it is
$p=400 kPa = 400 \cdot 10^3 Pa$

Therefore the work done by the gas is
$W=p\Delta V = (400 \cdot 10^3 Pa)(-400 \cdot 10^{-6} m^3)=-160 J$
where the negative sign means the work is done by the surrounding on the gas.

The heat energy given to the gas is
$Q=+100 J$

And the change in internal energy of the gas can be found by using the first law of thermodynamics:
$\Delta U = Q-W = 100 J - (-160 J)=+260 J$
where the positive sign means the internal energy of the gas has increased.

mash [69]

Answer:

the inductive reactance of the coil is 1335.35 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

inductance of the coil, L = 250 mH = 0.25 H

effective current through the coil, I = 5 mA

frequency of the coil, f = 850 Hz

The inductive reactance of the coil is calculated as;

$X_l = \omega L = 2\pi f L\\\\X_l = 2\pi \times 850 \times 0.25\\\\X_l = 1335.35 \ ohms$

Therefore, the inductive reactance of the coil is 1335.35 Ω
