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

ing upward along the y axis at 2.0 m/s and ball B is moving to the right along the x axis with speed 3.7 m/s. After the collision ball B is moving along the positive y axis. a. What is the speed of ball A and B after the collision? b. What is the direction of motion of ball A after the collision? b. What is the total momentum and kinetic energy of the two balls after the collision?

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

e-lub [12.9K]

The minimum input force she'll need to lift the ball is 35 N.

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage of a single pulley is 1. As, she applies 70 N of force to lift the bowling ball, so the output force(weight of the ball) is also 70 N.

Now, adding another pulley gives a mechanical advantage of 2. We have,

M.A = (Output Force)/(Input Force)

Substituting the values we get,

2=\frac{70}{F_{i}}

F_{i}=\frac{70}{2} = 35 N

Input force equals to 35 N needs to be applied.

If a current of 2.4 a is flowing in a cylindrical wire of diameter 2.0 mm, what is the average current density in this wire?
Gnom [1K]

The average current density in the wire is given by:

J=\frac{I}{A}

where I is the current intensity and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.


The cross-sectional area of the wire is given by:

A=\pi r^2

where r is the radius of the wire. In this problem, r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.0 mm}{2}=1.0 mm=0.001 m, so the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi (0.001 m)^2=3.14 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2


and the average current density is

J=\frac{I}{A}=\frac{2.4 A}{3.14 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=7.64 \cdot 10^5 A/m^2

Answer:

884Hz

Explanation:

Beats is the absolute difference between two frequencies therefore

Beats = f1-f2

4=f1-880

F1=880+4

Calculate the pressure, in atmospheres, exerted by each of the following:
gregori [183]

Answer:

a) 14.2 atm

b) 4.46 atm

c) 1.06 atm

Explanation:

For an ideal gas,

PV = nRT

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume occupied by the gas

n = number of moles of the gas

R = molar gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature of the gas in Kelvin

a) For HF,

P =?, V = 2.5L, n = 1.35 moles, T = 320K

P = 1.35 × 0.08206 × 320/2.5

P = 14.2 atm

b) For NO₂

P =?, V = 4.75L, n = 0.86 moles, T = 300K

P = 0.86 × 0.08206 × 300/4.75

P = 4.46 atm

c) For CO₂

P =?, V = 5.5 × 10⁴ mL = 55L, n = 2.15 moles, T = 57°C = 330K

P = 2.15 × 0.08206 × 330/55

P = 1.06 atm
