tô 1 depending on the type of collision.Let's try sample problem:Two balls A and B are approaching each other with velocities 5.5 m/s and 8.2 m/s respectively. The mass ofball A is 4.2 kg on the other hand ball B is 6. 6 kg. Find the velocity of the two bodies after impact, assumingthat the collision is perfectly inelastic.Solution:Consider "to the right" as positive and "the left" as negative direction. Ball A is moving to the right while ball B isto the left, as shown. Therefore va1 is + and vb1 is -. The collision is perfectlyinelastic, that is, the final mass is the sum of the masses of the two balls and the final velocityis the same for both balls therefore:V = MAVA1+ MBVB1/ mA + mB= (4.2 kg)(5.5 m/s) + (6.6 kg)(- 8.2 m/s)/ (4.2 kg +6.6 kg) = - 2.87m/sWhat does the negative sign indicate?

In solution it assume that: If ball is moving to the right than velocity is positive If ball is…

A 1-kg pellet travels with velocity 200 m/s to the right when it collides with a 39-kg hanging mass which is initially at rest. After the collision, the pellet remains lodged in the hanging mass, i.e., it is a completely inelastic collision. The hanging mass (+pellet) then swings upward and reaches a maximum height hmax before swinging downward again. Assume that no external forces are present and therefore the momentum of the system is conserved. a) What is the velocity vf of the hanging mass + pellet immediately after the collision? calculate in m/s b) What is the final kinetic energy Kf of the hanging mass + pellet immediately after the collision? calculate in J c) What is the maximum height hmax of the swinging hanging mass + pellet in centimeters? calculate in cm

Lucy is cruising through space in her new spaceship. As she coasts along, a tiny spacebug drifts into her path and bounces off the window. Consider several statements concerning this scenario. Evaluate each statement according to the law of momentum conservation and match it to the appropriate category. Must be true according to the law of momentum conservation Must be false according to the law of momentum conservation Answer Bank Not determined by the law of momentum conservation If the spacebug had stuck to the spaceship instead of bouncing off, momentum would not have been conserved for this interaction. The change in the spacebug's momentum during the collision is greater than the change in the spaceship's momentum. The total chanaa in momentum for this interaction is nem The total momentum of the spaceship and spacebug before the collision is equal to their total momentum afterward. 日示全部 X
