Use your knowledge of the velocities and changes in velocities to construct momentum vectors and change in momentum vectors for the blocks. Also draw a final momentum vector for each block corresponding to the same small time interval as in part C. Show the correct relative magnitudes.

- A student has assembled an arrangement of tracks on which a steel ball has the motion represented by the v versus t graph at the right. The ball is released from rest (v = 0 cm/s) at x = 46 cm when t = 0 s. a. At what time (to the nearest second) was the ball at x = 188 cm? Show your work, explaining how you determined your answer from the v versus t graph. b. What was the magnitude of the average velocity of the ball over the entire time interval shown on the graph (i.e., between t = 0 s and t = 20 s)? Show all work.arrow_forwardUse the worked example above to help you solve this problem. Two billiard balls of identical mass move toward each other as shown in the figure. Assume that the collision between them is perfectly elastic. If the initial velocities of the balls are v1i = +25.2 cm/s and v2i = −20.3 cm/s, what are the velocities of the balls after the collision? Assume friction and rotation are unimportant. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) v1f = v2f =arrow_forwardI need help with part c, can you write out the sentence with the answer please, thank you.arrow_forward
- For part b, I do not really understand what the question is asking. During the 200 m trip upwards, to we have to consider that the elevator accelerates for 5 seconds, then decelarates for 5 secs and then moves with constant velocity? I do get the final answer that is 45 secs, but Ido not conceptually understand how I am supposed to understand that there is a period of decelaration during the upward motion. Could you please solve only part b and help me understand why both periods of acceleration and deceleration both need to be taken into consideration?arrow_forwardDuring an elastic collision, a proton with a velocity of 5000 m/s (forward) undergoes a head on collision with an alpha particle (composed of two protons and two neutrons) with a velocity of 2000m/s (backward). Determine the final velocities of the subatomic particles. Assume forward is positive. Show all your work please.arrow_forwardThe angle of the ramp is changed such that it is larger than theta but less than 90 degrees while the height of the ramp remains the same. h. How would the maximum height of the box compare to the original scenario in which the ramp angle was equal to theta? Justify your answer. i. Would the slope of the graph of vertical velocity as a function of time shown above be different for this scenario in which the box is launched from a larger angle? Justify your response.arrow_forward
- A 22-g bullet traveling 240 m/s penetrates a 2.0-kg block of wood and emerges going 150 m/s. If the block is stationary on a frictionless surface when hit, how fast does it move after the bullet emerges? please show your work, including diagrams, algebraic equations, and enough written explanations that somebody who is not familiar with the problem could understand what you are doing.arrow_forwardA golfer hits a golf ball from the ground with an initial speed of 42 m/s at an angle of 53 degrees above the horizontal. The ball hits the ground on the fairway, at a height 1.75 m below its initial height. Please answer all of the following questions regarding this scenario and show your work: 1. How far away does the golf ball hit the ground? 2. What is the velocity of the golf ball the moment before it hits the ground? Give your answer in terms of its speed and the angle it makes with the horizontal.arrow_forwardPart B The same system is being used as in part a but this time the mass m is being pulled down with a force as can be seen in the figure below. Find the equation of motion for this system where m is the mass, k is the stiffness of the spring, x is the displacement and t is the time.arrow_forward
- When balls collide in a game of pool, the collision is almost perfectly elastic. Let us assume we have a perfectly elastic collision of two pool balls, one weighted heavier than the other, M1 = 0.175 kg and M2 = 0.250 kg. 1. Suppose the initial velocity of ball 1 is v1i = 1.2 m/s and the initial velocity of ball 2 is v2i = -0.5 m/s. Determine the initial momentum and kinetic energy. Show your work. 2. Determine the final velocities of the two balls v1i and v2i after this elastic collision. Show your work. 3. If the collision took place in 1/20 of a second, t = 0.05 s, determine the average magnitude of the normal force acting between the balls during the collision. Show your work.arrow_forwardBefore a collision, Cart A has 50 kg m/s of momentum and Cart B has -10 kg m/s momentum. Following the collision, Cart A has momentum of 30 kg m/s, Cart B is moving but you don’t know its momentum yet. What is the total momentum of the 2 car system before the explosion? Show your work. Assuming this system is isolated, what is the total momentum of the 2 car system after the explosion? What is the momentum of cart B after the explosion? If Cart B has a mass of 5 kg, how fast is cart B moving?arrow_forwardExplain part c pleasearrow_forward
