Two billiard balls move toward each other on a table. The mass of the number three ball, m1, is 5 g with a velocity of 3 m/s. Th

e mass of the eight ball, m2, is 6 g with a velocity of 1 m/s. After the balls collide, they bounce off each other. The number three ball moves off with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is the final velocity and direction of the eight ball?

This question deals with the law of conservation of momentum, which basically says that the total momentum in a system must stay the same, provided there are no outside forces. Since you were given the mass and velocity of the two objects you can find the momentum (p=mv) of each and then add them together to find the total momentum of the system before they collide. This total momentum must be the same after they collide.  Since you have the mass and velocity of one of the objects after the collision you can find the its momentum after.  Subtract this from the the system total and you will have the momentum of the other object after the collision.  Now that you know the momentum of the other object you can find its velocity using p=mv and its mass from before.

Be careful with the velocities.  They are vectors, so direction matters.  Typically moving to the right is positive (+) and moving to the left is negative (-).  It is not clear from your question which direction the objects are moving before and after the collision.

Suggest reasons why poaching for subsistence is likely to be less damaging to the biodiversity of an area than poaching for prof
dlinn [17]
An example for ruining a biodiversity is fishing. The two factors that have contributed to increased fishing in deep ocean waters in recent years are the human population growth and decreased fishing opportunities inshore. Increase population growth increases the demand for food which also leads to increase in fish demand. Because the fish demand is high, inshore fishing opportunities decrease that is why deep ocean waters is the new venue for fishing. This may sound absurd but poaching for subsistence is likely to be less damaging to he biodiversity <span>of an area than poaching for profit. Because the people do not care anymore to the biodiversity that they interrupted just to get back more profit. They do not care what must be taken from it like getting bigger fishes and leaving the smaller ones behind to maintain productivity.</span>

Un autocar que circula a 81 km/h frena uniformemente con una aceleración de -4,5 m/s2.
horsena [70]

Answer:

a) \Delta x=56.25 m

b) imagen adjunta

Explanation:

a) Primero debemos hacer la conversión de 81 km/h a m/s, esto es 22.5 m/s.

Ahora, usando la ecuacion cinemática, en un movimiento acelerado tenemos:

v_{f}^{2}=v_{0}^{2}+2a \Delta x

Queremos encontrar la posición hasta detenerse, osea vf = 0.

\Delta x=\frac{-v_{0}^{2}}{2a}

\Delta x=\frac{-22.5^{2}}{-2*4.5}

\Delta x=56.25 m

b) Para este caso el gráfico se encuentra adjunto.                                      

Espero que te sirva de ayuda!

A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surf
Tasya [4]

Answer:

<em>The correct answer is (a) 312.5nm and (b) 125nm</em>

Explanation:

<em>The first step to take is to find The minimum thickness of the slick of the oil</em>

<em>Given that,</em>

<em>(a) tmin  λ/2n </em>

<em>We substitute 750nm ( in air) for λ and 1.20 for n for the expression of  minimum thickness t of the oil slick at that spot</em>

<em>thus,</em>

<em>tmin = (750nm)/2(1.2) = 312.5nm</em>

<em>The minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot is =312.5nm</em>

<em>(B) we find the minimum thickness t </em>

<em>The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be calculated by,</em>

<em>tmin = λ/4n</em>

<em>we then 750nm ( in air) for λ and 1.50 for n  in the expression for the minimum thickness of the slick of the oil.</em>

<em>tmin = (750nm)/4 (1.5) = 125nm</em>

<em>Therefore the minimum thickness t will now be = 125nm</em>

A sample of 4.50 g of methane occupies 12.7 dm3 at 310 K. (a) Calculate the work done when the gas expands isothermally against
valkas [14]

Answer:

(A) Work done will be 87.992 KJ

(B) Work done will be 167.4 KJ            

Explanation:

We have given mass of methane m = 4.5 gram = 0.0045 kg

Volume occupies V_1=12.7dm^3=12.7liters

And volume is increased by 3.3dm^3 so V_2=12.7+3.3=16liters

Temperature T = 310 K

Pressure is given as 200 Torr = 26664.5 Pa

(a) At constant pressure work done is given by

W=P(V_2-V_1)=26664.5\times (16-12.7)=87992.85J=87.992kj

(b) At reversible process work done is given by W=nRTln\frac{V_2}{V_1}

We have given mass = 4.5 gram

Molar mass of methane = 16

So number of moles n=\frac{mass\ in\ gram}{mol;ar\ mass}=\frac{4.5}{16}=0.28125

So work done W=0.28125\times 8.314\times 310ln\frac{16}{12.7}=167.4J

Vector A⃗ points in the negative y direction and has a magnitude of 7 units. Vector B⃗ has twice the magnitude and points in the
Sergeu [11.5K]
So vector A has a magnitude of 7 units in the negative Y direction and the Vector B has a magnitude of 14 units in the positive x. Which means that A has a coordinate of A(0,-7) nad B is B(14,0).

-The direction and the magnitude of A+B is -7 down and 14 forward
