ude and duration of the force on each cart, as shown in the partially completed data tableabove, and calculate final kinetic energy and momentum. Which cart has a greater kinetic energy at the end of the push?

Answer:

The kinetic energy is higher for the first cart.

Explanation:

For the second cart, its mass is 2kg and the momentum measured is 10kg m/s, which leads to

(2kg)v = 10kg\: m/s

resulting in

v = 5m/s.

Consequently, the kinetic energy for the 3kg cart ends up as

K.E.  = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

= \dfrac{1}{2}(2kg)(5m/s)^2 =  25J

\boxed{K.E = 25J}

indicating it is less than that of the 1kg cart so it follows that the first cart possesses greater kinetic energy.

Richard needs to fly from san diego to halifax, nova scotia and back in order to give an important talk about mathematics. on th
Ostrovityanka [3204]

As the plane heads toward Halifax, the wind speed supports the flight path

resulting in an overall improved speed

Conversely, during the return trip, the wind will resist the plane's motion, decreasing the net speed

The total journey lasts 13 hours

of which 2 hours was dedicated to the mathematics discussion

Consequently, the total flight time is 13 - 2 = 11 hours

Now we apply the formula to calculate the time for traveling to Halifax

t_1 = \frac{d}{v + 50}

Time needed to return

t_2 = \frac{d}{v - 50}

Let’s look at the total time

T = t_1 + t_2

11 = \frac{d}{v - 50} + \frac{d}{v + 50}

Here d = 3000 miles

11 = \frac{3000}{v - 50} + \frac{3000}{v + 50}

3.67 * 10^{-3} = \frac{2v}{v^2 - 2500}

v^2 - 2500 = 545.45v

By solving the derived quadratic equation

v = 550 mph

the plane's speed calculates to 550 mph

An axle passes through a pulley. Each end of the axle has a string that is tied to a support. A third string is looped many time
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

Explanation:

The system starts from rest, so the change in angular momentum correlates directly to its final angular momentum.

ΔL = L − L₀

ΔL = Iω − 0

ΔL = ½ MR²ω

To determine the angular velocity ω, begin by drawing a free body diagram for both the pulley and the block.

For the block, two forces act: the weight force mg downward and tension force T upward.

For the pulley, three forces are present: weight force Mg down, a reaction force up, and tension force T downward.

For the sum of forces in the -y direction on the block:

∑F = ma

mg − T = ma

T = mg − ma

For the sum of torques on the pulley:

∑τ = Iα

TR = (½ MR²) (a/R)

T = ½ Ma

Substituting gives:

mg − ma = ½ Ma

2mg − 2ma = Ma

2mg = (2m + M) a

a = 2mg / (2m + M)

The angular acceleration of the pulley is:

αR = 2mg / (2m + M)

α = 2mg / (R (2m + M))

Finally, the angular velocity after time t is:

ω = αt + ω₀

ω = 2mg / (R (2m + M)) t + 0

ω = 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

Substituting into the previous equations gives:

ΔL = ½ MR² × 2mgt / (R (2m + M))

ΔL = MmRgt / (2m + M)

A baseball thrown at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal strikes a building 16.0 m away at a point 8.00 m above the point fro
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

a) v_{o} =16m/s

b) v=9.8m/s

c) \beta =-35.46º

Explanation:

According to the problem, the distance from the building where the ball hits is 16m, and its final elevation exceeds the initial height by 8m.

With this information, we can compute the ball’s starting speed.

a) Let's first assess the horizontal trajectory.

x=v_{ox}t

x=v_{o}cos(60)t

v_{o}=\frac{x}{tcos(60)}=\frac{16m}{tcos(60)} (1)

This gives us our initial equation.

Next, we need to examine the vertical trajectory.

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

y_{o}+8=y_{o}+v_{o}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

Utilizing v_{o} in our first equation (1)

8=\frac{16}{tcos(60)}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2=16tan(60)-8

Now let’s solve for t.

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(16tan(60)-8)}{9.8} } =2s

The ball takes two seconds to reach the adjacent building, allowing us to compute its initial speed.

v_{o}=\frac{16m}{(2s)cos(60)}=16m/s

b) To determine the velocity magnitude just before impact, we must calculate both x and y components.

v_{x}=v_{ox}+at=16cos(60)=8m/s

v_{y}=v_{oy}+gt=16sin(60)-(9.8)(2)=-5.7m/s

The computed velocity magnitude is:

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}=\sqrt{(8m/s)^2+(-5.7m/s)^2}=9.8m/s

c) The ball's angle is:

\beta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_{y} }{v_{x}})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.7}{8})=-35.46º

A tennis ball bounces on the floor three times. If each time it loses 22.0% of its energy due to heating, how high does it rise
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

H = 109.14 cm

Explanation:

Given,                                                            

Assume that the total energy equals 1 unit.                                

Energy remaining after the first collision = 0.78 x 1 unit

Balance after the first impact = 0.78 units

Remaining energy after the second impact = 0.78 ^2 units

Balance after the second impact = 0.6084 units

Remaining energy after the third impact = 0.78 ^3 units

Balance after the third impact = 0.475 units

The height reached after the third collision is equivalent to the remaining energy.

Let H denote the height achieved after three bounces.

0.475 (m g h) = m g H                  

H = 0.475 x h                                    

H = 0.475 x 2.3 m                          

H = 1.0914 m                      

H = 109.14 cm
