Answers:
a) -2.54 m/s
b) -2351.25 J
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum must be equal to the final momentum :
(1)
Where:
(2)
(3)
is the mass of the first football player
is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)
is the mass of the second football player
is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)
is the final velocity of both football players
With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:
a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):
(4)
Isolating :
(5)
(6)
(7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south
b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player
The change in Kinetic energy is defined as:
(8)
Simplifying:
(9)
(10)
Finally:
(10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision
As it was explained in the Introductory Article on the Electromagnetic Spectrum, electromagnetic radiation can be described as a stream of photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern, carrying energy and moving at the speed of light. In that section, it was pointed out that the only difference between radio waves, visible light and gamma rays is the energy of the photons. Radio waves have photons with the lowest energies. Microwaves have a little more energy than radio waves. Infrared has still more, followed by visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.
That should be able to help answer your question :)
Kinetic energy= 1/2 m v^2
so... 1/2(1350)(12^2)
kinetic energy = 97200Joules
Answer:
Decreases to half.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial mass (m₁) = m
Initial force (F₁) = F
Initial acceleration (a₁) =?
Final mass (m₂) = ½m
Final force (F₂) = ¼F
Final acceleration (a₂) =?
Next, we shall determine a₁. This can be obtained as follow:
F₁ = m₁a₁
F = ma₁
Divide both side by m
a₁ = F / m
Next, we shall determine a₂.
F₂ = m₂a₂
¼F = ½ma₂
2F = 4ma₂
Divide both side by 4m
a₂ = 2F / 4m
a₂ = F / 2m
Finally, we shall determine the ratio of a₂ to a₁. This can be obtained as follow:
a₁ = F / m
a₂ = F / 2m
a₂ : a₁ = a₂ / a₁
a₂ / a₁ = F/2m ÷ F/m
a₂ / a₁ = F/2m × m/F
a₂ / a₁ = ½
Cross multiply
a₂ = ½a₁
From the illustrations made above, the acceleration of the car will decrease to half the original acceleration
