Two objects moving with a speed v travel in opposite directions in a straight line. The objects stick together when they collide, and move with a speed of v/2 after the collision.
Required:
a. What is the ratio of the final kinetic energy of the system to the initial kinetic energy?
b. What is the ratio of the mass of the more massive object to the mass of the less massive object?
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the mass of objects be m₁ and m₂ .
Total kinetic energy = 1/2 m₁ v² + 1/2 m₂ v²= 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v²
Total kinetic energy after collision= 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v² / 4 = 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v² x .25
final KE / initial KE = 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v² x .25 / 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂ ) v²
= 0.25
b )
Applying law of conservation of momentum to the system . Let m₁ > m₂
m₁ v - m₂ v = ( m₁ + m₂ ) v / 2
m₁ v - m₂ v = ( m₁ + m₂ ) v / 2
m₁ - m₂ = ( m₁ + m₂ ) / 2
2m₁ - 2 m₂ = m₁ + m₂
m₁ = 3m₂
m₁ / m₂ = 3 / 1
Answer:
(a) The ratio is 1 : 4.
(b) The ratio is 1 : 3.
Explanation:
Let the mass of each object is m and m'.
They initially move with velocity v opposite to each other.
Use conservation of momentum
m v - m' v = (m + m') v/2
2 (m - m') = (m + m')
2 m - 2 m' = m + m'
m = 3 m' .... (1)
(a) Let the initial kinetic energy is K and the final kinetic energy is K'.
[tex]K = 0.5 mv^2 + 0.5 m' v^2 \\\\K = 0.5 (m + m') v^2..... (1)[/tex]
[tex]K' = 0.5 (m + m') \frac{v^2}{4}.... (2)[/tex]
The ratio is
K' : K = 1 : 4
(b) m = 3 m'
So, m : m' = 3 : 1
The distance between the two object is fixed at 5.0 m. The uncertainty distance measurement is? The percentage error in the distance is?
• Explain how sound travels
Sound is a type of energy made by vibrations. These vibrations create sound waves which move through mediums such as air, water and wood. When an object vibrates, it causes movement in the particles of the medium. This movement is called sound waves, and it keeps going until the particles run out of energy.

Army is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward. How fast does Bill see Carlos moving and in what direction?
a. 10 mis eastward
b. 5 m/s eastward
c. 15 m/s westward
d. 20 m/s westward
e. 10 m/s westward
Explanation:
Given that,
Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.
Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:
[tex]v_B=+5\ m/s[/tex]is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)
[tex]v_c=15\ m/s[/tex] is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.
Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is
[tex]v_B=+5\ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be
[tex]v_c'=-15\ m/s-(+5\ m/s)\\\\=-20\ m/s[/tex]
So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).

A 0.20 kg mass on a horizontal spring is pulled back a certain distance and released. The maximum speed of the mass is measured to be 0.30 m/s. If, instead, a 0.40 kg mass were used in this same experiment, choose the correct value for the maximum speed.
a. 0.40 m/s.
b. 0.20 m/s.
c. 0.28 m/s.
d. 0.14 m/s.
e. 0.10 m/s.
Answer:
b. 0.20 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial mass, m = 0.2 kg
maximum speed, v = 0.3 m/s
The total energy of the spring at the given maximum speed is calculated as;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
K.E = 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.3²
K.E = 0.009 J
If the mass is changed to 0.4 kg
¹/₂mv² = K.E
mv² = 2K.E
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.009}{0.4} } \\\\v = 0.21 \ m/s\\\\v \approx 0.20 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the maximum speed is 0.20 m/s

[tex]F=440(\frac{343-10}{343-35})[/tex]
[tex]F=475.7Hz[/tex]
b)
Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by
[tex]F'=f_0(\frac{v+v_2}{v+v_1})[/tex]
[tex]F'=440(\frac{343+10}{343+35})[/tex]
[tex]F'=410.899Hz[/tex]
A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1 m, is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflected at the post and travel back along the string without loss of amplitude. What is the net displacement at a point on the string where two pulses are crossing
Answer:
A_resulting = 0.2 m
Explanation:
Let's analyze the impact of the pulse with the pole, this is a fixed obstacle that does not move therefore by the law of action and reluctant, the force that the pole applies on the rope is of equal magnitude to the force of the rope on the pole (pulse), but opposite directional, so the reflected pulse reverses its direction and sense.
With this information we analyze a point on the string where the incident pulse is and each reflected with an amplitude A = 0.1 m, the resulting is
A_res = 2A
A_resultant = 2 .01
A_resulting = 0.2 m
You throw a Frisbee of mass m and radius r so that it is spinning about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the plane of the Frisbee. Ignoring air resistance, the torque exerted about its center of mass by gravity is: __________
a. 0.
b. mgr
c. 2mgr
d. a function of the angular velocity.
e. small at first, then increasing as the Frisbee loses the torque given it by your hand.
Answer:
the correct answer is a
Explanation:
The torque is
τ = F x r
where the bold letters indicate vectors, in this case the vector of the center of mass is perpendicular to the weight of the body
τ = mg r
in body weight it is applied at the point of the center of mass, therefore as the distance of the force from the axis of rotation (center of amas) is zero, the die is zero
the correct answer is a

a. straight line drawn from the center of curvature to the mid point of the mirror.
b. straight line drawn from the center of curvature to a point on the outer edge of the mirror.
c. straight line drawn from the center of curvature to any point of the mirror.
d. straight line joining any two points on the mirror.
e. None of the other answers given is correct.
Answer:
d. straight line joining any two points on the mirror
Explanation:
Principal axis is the straight line that passes through the center of a mirror, which is also perpendicular to the surface of the mirror.
The principal axis connects the principal focus and the center of curvature of the mirror. In other words, it is a straight line or axis on which the center of curvature and principal focus can be found. The principal axis joins these two points; the center of curvature and principal focus.
Therefore, the correct option is "D"

What would you expect to happen to the velocity of the bobber if the mass of the washers in the cylinder remained the same and the radius was doubled?
Answer:
The velocity becomes [tex]v\sqrt 2[/tex].
Explanation:
The force acting on the bobber is centripetal force.
The centripetal force is given by
[tex]F =\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]
when mass remains same, radius is doubled and the force is same, so the velocity is v'.
[tex]F =\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{mv'^2}{2r}\\\\v'=v\sqrt 2[/tex]

Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Mass m=0.40
Radius r=1.8m
Angle Beneath the Horizontal \theta =40 \textdegree
Speed v=5.0m/s
The Tension Angle
[tex]\alpha=90-\theta\\\\\alpha=90-40[/tex]
[tex]\alpha=50 \textdegree[/tex]
Generally the equation for Tension is is mathematically given by
[tex]T=\frac{mv^2}{r}+mgcos \alpha[/tex]
[tex]T=\frac{0.40*5^2}{1.8}+0.40*5cos50[/tex]

The mass of a hot-air balloon and its occupants is 381 kg (excluding the hot air inside the balloon). The air outside the balloon has a pressure of 1.01 x 105 Pa and a density of 1.29 kg/m3. To lift off, the air inside the balloon is heated. The volume of the heated balloon is 480 m3. The pressure of the heated air remains the same as that of the outside air. To what temperature in kelvins must the air be heated so that the balloon just lifts off
Answer:
In order to lift off the ground, the air in the balloon must be heated to 710.26 K
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
P = 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa
V = 480 m³
ρ = 1.29 kg/m³
M = 381 kg
we know that; R = 8.31 J/mol.K and the molecular mass of air μ = 29 × 10⁻³ kg/mol
let F represent the force acting upward.
Now in a condition where the hot air balloon is just about to take off;
F - Mg - m[tex]_g[/tex]g = 0
where M is the mass of the balloon and its occupants, m[tex]_g[/tex] is the mass of the hot gas inside the balloon.
the force acting upward F = Vρg
so
Vρg - Mg - m[tex]_g[/tex]g = 0
solve for m[tex]_g[/tex]
m[tex]_g[/tex] = ( Vρg - Mg ) / g
m[tex]_g[/tex] = Vρg/g - Mg/g
m[tex]_g[/tex] = ρV - M ------- let this be equation 1
Now, from the ideal gas law, PV = nRT
we know that number of moles n = m[tex]_g[/tex] / μ
where μ is the molecular mass of air
so
PV = (m[tex]_g[/tex]/μ)RT
solve for T
μPV = m[tex]_g[/tex]RT
T = μPV / m[tex]_g[/tex]R -------- let this be equation 2
from equation 1 and 2
T = μPV / (ρV - M)R
so we substitute in our values;
P = 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa
V = 480 m³
ρ = 1.29 kg/m³
M = 381 kg
we know that; R = 8.31 J/mol.K and the molecular mass of air μ = 29 × 10⁻³ kg/mol
T = [ (29 × 10⁻³) × (1.01 × 10⁵) × 480 ] / [ (( 1.29 × 480 ) - 381)8.31 ]
T = 1405920 / 1979.442
T = 710.26 K
Therefore, In order to lift off the ground, the air in the balloon must be heated to 710.26 K
The temperature required for the air to be heated is 710.26 K.
Given data:
The mass of a hot air-balloon is, m = 381 kg.
The pressure of air outside the balloon is, [tex]P = 1.01 \times 10^{5} \;\rm Pa[/tex].
The density of air is, [tex]\rho = 1.29 \;\rm kg/m^{3}[/tex].
The volume of heated balloon is, [tex]V = 480 \;\rm m^{3}[/tex].
The condition where the hot air balloon is just about to take off is as follows:
[tex]F-mg - m'g =0[/tex]
Here,
m' is the mass of hot gas inside the balloon and g is the gravitational acceleration and F is the force acting on the balloon in upward direction. And its value is,
[tex]F = V \times \rho \times g[/tex]
Solving as,
[tex](V \times \rho \times g)-mg - m'g =0\\\\ m'=(V \rho )-m[/tex]
Now, apply the ideal gas law as,
PV = nRT
here, R is the universal gas constant and n is the number of moles and its value is,
[tex]n=\dfrac{m'}{M}[/tex]
M is the molecular mass of gas. Solving as,
[tex]PV = \dfrac{m'}{M} \times R \times T\\\\\\T=\dfrac{P \times V\times M}{m'R}\\\\\\T=\dfrac{P \times V\times M}{(V \rho - m)R}[/tex]
Since, the standard value for the molecular mass of air is, [tex]M = 29 \times 10^{-3} \;\rm kg/mol[/tex]. Then solve for the temperature as,
[tex]T=\dfrac{(1.01 \times 10^{5}) \times 480\times 381}{(480 \times (1.29) - 381)8.31}\\\\\\T = 710.26 \;\rm K[/tex]
Thus, we can conclude that the temperature required for the air to be heated is 710.26 K.

Suppose that 2 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 34 cm to a length of 46 cm. (a) How much work is needed to stretch the spring from 36 cm to 41 cm
Answer:
0.83 J of work
Explanation:
2 J of work is required to stretch a spring from 34cm to 46cm
So that is 12cm stretched with 2 J of work
We can make that 6cm for 1 J of work
So, we need the find the work for stretching 36cm to 41cm
Which is 5cm
So, What is the work required to stretch 5cm?
1 J of work for 6cm
x work for 5cm
So, by proportion method
1 : 6 :: x : 5
6 * x = 1 * 5
6x = 5
x = 5/6
= 0.83
So to stretch 36cm to 41cm we need 0.83 J of work

Two distinct systems have the same amount of stored internal energy. 500 J are added by heat to the first system and 300 J are added by heat to the second system. What will be the change in internal energy of the first system if it does 200 J of work? How much work will the second system have to do in order to have the same internal energy?
Answer:
The change in the internal energy of the first system is 300 J
The second system will do zero work in order to have the same internal energy.
Explanation:
Given;
heat added to the first system, Q₁ = 500 J
heat added to the second system, Q₂ = 300 J
work done by the first system, W₁ = 200 J
The change in the internal energy of the system is given by the first law of thermodynamics;
ΔU = Q - W
where;
ΔU is the change in internal energy of the system
The change in the internal energy of the first system is calculated as;
ΔU₁ = Q₁ - W₁
ΔU₁ = 500 J - 200 J
ΔU₁ = = 300 J
The work done by the second system to have the same internal energy with the first.
ΔU₁ = Q₂ - W₂
W₂ = Q₂ - ΔU₁
W₂ = 300 J - 300 J
W₂ = 0
The second system will do zero work in order to have the same internal energy.

The pan flute is a musical instrument consisting of a number of closed-end tubes of different lengths. When the musician blows over the open ends, each tube plays a different note. The longest pipe is 0.31 m long.
What is the frequency of the note it plays? Assume room temperature of 20∘C.
Answer:
f = 276.6 Hz
Explanation:
This musical instrument can be approximated to a tube system where each tube has one end open and the other closed.
In the closed part there is a node and in the open part a belly or antinode. Therefore the wavelength is
L = λ/ 4
speed is related to wavelength and frequency
v = λ f
λ = v / f
we substitute
L = v / 4f
f = v / 4L
the speed of sound at 20ºC is
v = 343 m / s
let's calculate
f = [tex]\frac{343 }{4 \ 0.31}[/tex]
f = 276.6 Hz
