Two astronauts on opposite ends of a spaceship are comparing lunches. One has an apple, the other has an orange. They decide to trade. Astronaut 1 tosses the 0.110 kg apple toward astronaut 2 with a speed of vi,1 = 1.13 m/s . The 0.150 kg orange is tossed from astronaut 2 to astronaut 1 with a speed of 1.25 m/s . Unfortunately, the fruits collide, sending the orange off with a speed of 0.977 m/s in the negative y direction.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

the final velocity of the apple after the collision is approximately 0.758m/s in the positive x-direction.

To solve this problem, we can use the principle of conservation of linear momentum. The total momentum before the collision should equal the total momentum after the collision.

Let's set up our coordinate system with the x-axis pointing to the right and the y-axis pointing upward. Astronaut 1 is tossing the apple in the positive x-direction, so the velocity of the apple (v1) will be positive. Astronaut 2 is tossing the orange in the negative x-direction, so the velocity of the orange (v2) will be negative.

The conservation of linear momentum equation is as follows:

m1∗v1+m2∗v2=m1∗vf1+m2∗vf2

Where:

m1 is the mass of the apple (0.110 kg)

v1 is the initial velocity of the apple (1.13 m/s)

m2 is the mass of the orange (0.150 kg)

v2 is the initial velocity of the orange (−1.25 m/s, as it's in the negative x-direction)

vf1 is the final velocity of the apple (which we need to find)

vf2 is the final velocity of the orange (−0.977 m/s)

Now, we can plug in these values and solve for vf1:

0.110kg∗1.13m/s+0.150kg∗(−1.25m/s)=0.110kg∗vf1+0.150kg∗(−0.977m/s)

0.1243kg∗m/s−0.1875kg∗m/s=0.110kg∗vf1−0.14655kg∗m/s

Now, let's isolate vf1:

0.1243kg∗m/s−0.1875kg∗m/s+0.14655kg∗m/s=0.110kg∗vf1

0.0834kg∗m/s=0.110kg∗vf1

Now, divide by 0.110kg to find vf1:

vf1=0.0834kg∗m/s/0.110kg=0.758m/s

So, the final velocity of the apple after the collision is approximately 0.758m/s in the positive x-direction.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

The speed and direction of the apple is 1.448 m/s and 66.65°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of apple = 0.110 kg

Speed = 1.13 m/s

Mass of orange = 0.150 kg

Speed = 1.25 m/s

Suppose we find the final speed and direction of the apple in this case

Using conservation of momentum:

Before:

In x direction,

P_(b)=m_(p)v_(p)-m_(o)v_(o)

P_(b)=0.110*1.13-0.150*1.25

P_(b)=−0.0632\ kg-m/s

In y direction = 0

After:

v_(ay) is velocity of the apple in the y direction

v_(ax) is the velocity of the apple in the x direction

Momentum again:

In x direction,

0.110* v_(ax)+0=−0.0632

v_(x)=(−0.0632)/(0.110)

v_(x)=−0.574\ m/s

In y-direction,

0.110* v_(ay)-0.150*0.977=0

v_(ay)=(0.150*0.977)/(0.110)

v_(ay)=1.33\ m/s

We need to calculate the speed of apple

v_(a)=\sqrt{(v_(x))^2+(v_(y))^2}

Put the value into the formula

v_(a)=√((−0.574)^2+(1.33)^2)

v_(a)=1.448\ m/s

We need to calculate the direction of the apple

Using formula of angle

\tan\theta=(v_(ay))/(v_(ax))

Put the value into the formula

\theta=\tan^(-1)((1.33)/(0.574))

\theta=66.65^(\circ)

Hence, The speed and direction of the apple is 1.448 m/s and 66.65°.

(c). The escape velocity of a rocket as a function of speed of light is 4.03*10^(-8)\ m/s

(d). The orbital speed of the Earth about the Sun is 3*10^(8)\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Express the following speeds as a function of the speed of light.

Automobile speed = 93 km/h

We know that,

A function of speed of light is

c=3*10^(8)\ m/s

(a). Automobile speed = 93 km/h

Speed v_(a)=93*(5)/(18)

v_(a)=25.83\ m/s

We need to express the speed of automobile speed as a function of speed of light

Using formula of speed

v=(v_(a))/(v_(l))

Put the value into the formula

v=(25.83)/(3*10^(8))

v=8.61*10^(-8)\ m/s

(b). The speed of sound is 329 m/s.

We need to express the speed of sound as a function of speed of light

Using formula of speed

v=(v_(s))/(v_(l))

Put the value into the formula

v=(329)/(3*10^(8))

v=10.9*10^(-8)\ m/s

(c). The escape velocity of a rocket from the Earth's surface is 12.1 m/s

We need to express the speed of sound as a function of speed of light

Using formula of speed

v=(v_(e))/(v_(l))

Put the value into the formula

v=(12.1)/(3*10^(8))

v=4.03*10^(-8)\ m/s

(d). The orbital speed of the Earth about the Sun

Distance = 1.5\times10^{8}[/tex]

We know that,

The sun rays reached on the earth in 8 min 20 sec.

We need to express the speed of sound as a function of speed of light

Using formula of speed

v=(d)/(t)

Put the value into the formula

v=(1.5*10^(8)*1000)/(500)

v=3*10^(8)\ m/s

Hence, (a). An automobile speed as a function of speed of light is 8.61*10^(-8)\ m/s

(b). The speed of sound as a function of speed of light is 10.9*10^(-8)\ m/s

(c). The escape velocity of a rocket as a function of speed of light is 4.03*10^(-8)\ m/s

(d). The orbital speed of the Earth about the Sun is 3*10^(8)\ m/s

0.686 m
0.343 m
1.46 m
1.87 m

Answers

Answer:

wavelength will be 0.686 m

So option (b) is correct

Explanation:

We have given vibration in one second that is frequency = 500 Hz

We know that velocity of sound is 343 m/sec

We have to find the wavelength

We know that velocity is given by v=\lambda f

So wavelength \lambda =(v)/(f)=(343)/(500)=0.686m

So wavelength will be 0.686 m

So option (b) is correct

Q.1- Find the distance travelled by a particle moving in a straight line with uniform acceleration, in the 10th unit of time.

Answers

Answer:

If the acceleration is constant, the movements equations are:

a(t) = A.

for the velocity we can integrate over time:

v(t) = A*t + v0

where v0 is a constant of integration (the initial velocity), for the distance traveled between t = 0 units and t = 10 units, we can solve the integral:

\int\limits^(10)_0 {A*t + v0} \, dt = ((A/2)10^2 + v0*10) = (A*50 + v0*10)

Where to obtain the actual distance you can replace the constant acceleration A and the initial velocity v0.

A physics cart has a projectile launcher mounted on top. While traveling on a straight track at 0.500 m/s, a projectile is fired. It lands back in the same place on top of the launcher after the cart has moved a distance of 2.30 m. In the frame of reference of the cart, (a) at what angle was the projectile fired and (b) what was the initial velocity of the projectile? (c) What is the shape of the projectile as seen by an observer on the cart? A physics student is watching the demonstration from a classroom seat. According to the student, (d) what is the shape of the projectile’s path, and (e) what is its initial velocity?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 90^(\circ)

(b) Initial velocity of the projectile is 22.54 m/s

(c) Straight line perpendicular to the plane of the car's motion

(d) Parabolic

(e) The initial velocity is 23.04 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of the cart, v = 0.500 m/s

Distance moved by the cart, d = 2.30 m

Now,

(a) The projectile must be fired at an angle of 90^(\circ) so that it mounts on the top of the cart moving with constant velocity.

(b) Now, for initial velocity, u':

Time of flight is given by;

T = (D)/(v)                    (1)

where

T = Flight time

D = Distance covered

(b) The component of velocity w.r.t an observer:

Horizontal component, v_(x) = u'cos\theta

Vertical component, v_(y) = u'sin\theta - gT

Also, the vertical component of velocity at maximum height is zero, v_(y) = 0

Therefore, T = (u')/(g)      

Total flight time, (2u')/(g)                (2)

Now, from eqn (1) and (2):

u' = (gD)/(2v)

u' = (9.8* 2.30)/(2* 0.500) = 22.54 m/s  

(c) The shape of the projectile w.r.t an observer will be a straight line perpendicular to the plane of cart's motion.

(d) The shape of the path of the projectile seen by the physics student outside the reference frame of the cart is parabolic

(e) The initial velocity  is given by:

u = u' + v = 22.54 + 0.5 = 23.04 m/s

A small ball of mass m is held directly above a large ball of mass M with a small space between them, and the two balls are dropped simultaneously from height H.

Answers

a) The large sphere has 3 times the mass of the small sphere

b)   The final height at which small ball reach y = 4H

What will be the mass of the sphere and height covered by the small ball?

We must start this problem by calculating the speed with which the spheres reach the floor

V_f^2=V_o^2-2gy      

As the spheres are released v₀ = 0

V_f^2=2gH      

V_f=√(2gH)      

The two spheres arrive at the same speed to the floor.

The largest sphere clashes elastically so that with the floor it has a much higher mass, the sphere bounces with the same speed with which it arrived, the exit speed of the  spheres

V_(10)=\sqrt2gH    

The big sphere goes up and the small one down, the two collide, let's form a system that contains the two spheres, let's use moment conservation

Let's call

V_h=\sqrt2gH

Small sphere m₂ and  V_(20)=-\sqrt2gH=-V_h

Large sphere m₁ and  V_(10)=√(2gH)=V_h  

Before crash

P_o=m_1V_(10)+m_2V_(20)      

After the crash

P_f=m_1V_(1f)+m_2V_(2f)    

   

P_o=P_f  

   

m_1V_(10)+m_2V_(20)=m_1V_(1f)+m_2V_(2f)  

The conservation of kinetic energy

K_o=(1)/(2) m_1V_(10)^2+(1)/(2) m_2V_(20)^2      

K_f=(1)/(2) m_1V_(1f^2)+(1)/(2) m_2V_(2f)^2    

K_o=K_f  

K_o=(1)/(2) m_1V_(10)^2+(1)/(2) m_2V_(20)^2  =  K_f=(1)/(2) m_1V_(1f^2)+(1)/(2) m_2V_(2f)^2    

Let's write the values

-m_1V_h+m_2V_h=m_1V_(1f)+m_2V_(2f)    

 m_1V_h^2+m_2V_h^2=m_1V_(1f)^2+m_2V_(2f)^2

 

The solution to this system of equations is

m_t=m_1+m_2    

V_(1f)=((m_1-m_2))/(m_tV_(10)) +(2m_2)/(m_tV_2)      

V_(2f)=(2m_1)/(m_tV_(10)) +(m_2-m_1)/(m_tV_2)        

The large sphere is labeled 1, we are asked for the mass so that  V_(1f) = 0, let's clear the equation

V_(1f)=(m_1-m_2)/(m_tV_(10)) +(2m_2)/(m_tV_(20))      

0=(m_1-m_2)/(m_tV_h) +(2m_2)/(m_t(-V_h))      

 

(m_1-m_2)/(m_tV_h) =(2m_2)/(m_tV_h)      

(m_1-m_2)=2m_2    

m_1=3m_2      

The large sphere has to complete 3 times the mass of the sphere1 because it stops after the crash.

b) Let us calculate with the other equation the speed with which the sphere comes out2 (small)

  V_(2f)=(2m_1)/(m_tV_(10)) +(m_2-m_1)/(m_tV_(20))    

 

V_(2f)=(2m_1)/(m_tV_h) +(m_2-m_1)/(m_t(-V_h))

In addition, we know that m₁ = 3 m₂

m_t=3m_2+m_2  mt = 3m2 + m2

m_t=4m_2    

     

V_(2f)=(2* 3m_2)/(4m_2V_h-(m_2-3m_2)4m_2V_h)  

   

V_(2f)=(3)/(2) V_h+(1)/(2) V_h  

       

V_(2f)=2V_h

V_(2f)=2\sqrt{2gh        

This is the rate of rising of sphere 2 (small. At the highest point, it zeroes velocity V_f= 0

V^2=V_(2f)^2-2gy  

0=(2√(2gh))^2-2gy        

       

y=4H

Answer:

a) the large sphere has 3 times the mass of the small sphere

b)     y = 4H

Explanation:

We must start this problem by calculating the speed with which the spheres reach the floor

       vf² = vo² - 2g y

As the spheres are released v₀ = 0

      vf² = - 2g H

      vf = √ (2g H)

The two spheres arrive with the same speed to the floor.

The largest sphere clashes elastically so that with the floor it has a much higher mass, the sphere bounces with the same speed with which it arrived, the exit speed of the  spheres

     V₁₀ = √2gH

The big sphere goes up and the small one down, the two collide, let's form a system that contains the two spheres, let's use moment conservation

Let's call vh = √2gH

Small sphere m₂ and v₂o = - √2gH = -vh

Large sphere m₁ and v₁o = √ 2gh = vh

Before crash

        p₀ = m₁ v₁₀ + m₂ v₂₀

After the crash

      pf = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

      po = pf

      m₁ v₁₀ + m₂ v₂₀ = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

The conservation of kinetic energy

      Ko = ½ m₁ v₁₀² + ½ m₂ v₂₀²

      Kf = ½ m₁ v₁f² + ½ m₂ v₂f²

      Ko = KF

      ½ m₁ v1₁₀² + ½ m₂ v₂₀² = ½ m₁ v₁f² + ½ m₂ v₂f²

Let's write the values

      -m₁ vh + m₂ vh = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

       m₁ vh² + m₂ vh² = m₁ v₁f² + m₂ v₂f²

The solution to this system of equations is

       mt = m₁ + m₂

       v1f = (m₁-m₂) / mt v₁₀ + 2m₂ / mt v₂

       v₂f = 2m₁ /mt v₁₀ + (m₂-m₁) / mt v₂

The large sphere is labeled 1, we are asked for the mass so that v1f = 0, let's clear the equation

       v₁f = (m₁-m₂) / mt v₁₀ + 2m₂ / mt v₂₀

        0 = (m₁-m₂) / mt vh + 2 m₂ / mt (-vh)

       (m₁-m₂) / mt vh = 2 m₂ / mt vh

       (m₁-m₂) = 2m₂

        m₁ = 3 m₂

The large sphere has to complete 3 times the mass of the sphere1 because it stops after the crash.

b) Let us calculate with the other equation the speed with which the sphere comes out2 (small)

        v₂f = 2m₁ / mt v₁₀ + (m₂-m₁) / mt v₂₀

        v₂f = 2 m₁ / mt vh + (m₂-m₁) mt (-vh)

In addition, we know that m₁ = 3 m₂

        mt = 3m2 + m2

         mt= 4m2

        v₂f = 2 3m₂ / 4m₂ vh - (m₂-3m₂) 4m₂ vh

        v₂f = 3/2 vh +1/2 vh

        v₂f = 2 vh

        v₂f = 2 √ 2gh

This is the rate of rise of sphere 2 (small. At the highest point its zero velocity vf = 0

        V² = v₂f² - 2 g Y

          0 = (2√2gh)² - 2gy

        2gy = 4 (2gH)

         y = 4H
