In collisions considered elastic, the overall kinetic energy of the system remains constant, so that

KE1 = KE2

The kinetic energy before the impact can be computed as shown below.

KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This quantity must equal KE2, which can be derived from the post-collision conditions.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x calculated from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Thus, the velocity is 17.16 cm/s.

A conducting sphere 45 cm in diameter carries an excess of charge, and no other charges are present. You measure the potential o
Maru [3345]

Answer:

The excess charge is Q = 3.5 *10^{-7} \ C

Explanation:

According to the question, we are informed that

The diameter is d = 45 \ cm = 0.45 \ m

The potential of the surface is V = 14 \ kV = 14 *10^{3} \ V

The radius of the sphere is

r = \frac{d}{2}

by plugging in given values

r = \frac{0.45}{2}

r = 0.225 \ m

The potential at the surface is mathematically expressed as

V = \frac{k * Q }{r }

Where k is Coulomb's constant with a value k = 9*10^{9} \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

Based on the question stating there are no other charges, Q represents the excess charge

Therefore

Q = \frac{V* r}{ k}

inserting the numerical values

Q = \frac{14 *10^{3} 0.225}{ 9*10^9}

Q = 3.5 *10^{-7} \ C

Compare the momentum of a 6,300-kg elephant walking 0.11 m/s and a 50-kg dolphin swimming 10.4 m/s. your answer
inna [3103]
<span>First, apply Newton's second law of motion: F = ma. Force equals mass times acceleration. This law describes force as the product of mass multiplied by acceleration (which is different from velocity). As acceleration is the variation in velocity over time, we have force = (mass * velocity) / time, leading us to conclude that (mass * velocity) / time will equal momentum / time. Hence, we derive the equation mass * velocity = momentum. Momentum = mass * velocity. For the elephant, with a mass of 6300 kg and velocity of 0.11 m/s, Momentum = 6300 * 0.11, resulting in P = 693 kg (m/s). For the dolphin, having a mass of 50 kg and moving at 10.4 m/s, Momentum = 50 * 10.4, yielding P = 520 kg (m/s). Thus, the elephant has a greater momentum (P) due to its larger size.</span>

A crate on a motorized cart starts from rest and moves with a constant eastward acceleration ofa= 2.60 m/s^2. A worker assists t
Keith_Richards [3271]

Response:

To find power, we must first determine the work done by the force.

1) We will use the following equation to calculate work:

\int\limits {F} \, dx

The force is provided by the problem; our goal is to express 'dx' in terms of 't'

2) It's known that:

\frac{dV}{dt} = a = 2.6

Thus, we have:

v = 2.6t

Then:

\frac{dx}{dt} = V = 2.6t\\ \\dx = 2.6t*dt

3) Finally, substituting all known values gives us:

\int\limits^{4.7}_{0} {5.4t*2.6t} \, dt

After some calculations, the resulting work is:

161.9638 J.

4) To find power, we will use the following equation:

P = \frac{W}{t}

Thus

P = 161.9638/4.7 = 34.46 W
