(b) What is the final speed?

(c) What is the final total kinetic energy?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a)The initial total kinetic energy is 300 J.

(b) The final speed is 5m/s.

(c) The final total kinetic energy is 150J.

(d) The increase in internal energy of the two masses is 450J.

Step by step solution

01

Given parameters

Mass of the first object ism1=6Kg.

Initial speed of the first object Speed is 10m/s

Mass of the second object ism2=6kg.

02

The concept of collision between two objects

Collisions between two objects naturally fall under Newton's third law of motion. When two objects collide, forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction are applied to each object. Such pressures frequently result in one thing gaining momentum and gaining speed while the other object slows down (lose momentum).

There is a concept where the initial total kinetic energy of the objects with the same masses is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the first object.

KEi=12mvi2

03

Determine the kinetic energy

(a)

Substitute the value in the formula.

KEi=12mvi2KEi=12(6kg)(10m/s)KEi=300J

Therefore, the initial total kinetic energy is 300 J.

04

Determine the Final speed

(b)

Derive the formula for the velocity

The objects have the same masses, but the second object has an initial speed which is at rest.

Pi=P1,f+P2,f

With the inelastic collision, both of the objects will have the same speed since they also have the same mass P1,f=P2,f.

The equation can be rewritten as Pi=2P2,f.

With this, break down the formula according to its mass and velocity. then derive to find the value of:

Pi=2P2,fmvvi=2mv1,fv1,f=vi2

Simply substitute the values to the derived formula.

v1,f=vi2v1,f=10m/s2v1,f=5m/s

Therefore, the final speed is 5m/s.

05

Determine the final total kinetic energy

(c)

The final total kinetic energy of the masses:

KEf=KE1,f+KE2,f=12m1vf2+12m2vf2=12vf2m1+m2

Solve the Problem:

KEf=12(5)2(6+6)=150J

Therefore, the final total kinetic energy is 150J.

06

Determine the increase energy

(d)

From part (a), total initial kinetic energy:KEi=300J

From part (c), total final kinetic energy:KEi=150J

So, the increase in internal energy of the two masses is

KEi+KEf=300+150=450J

Therefore, the increase in internal energy of the two masses is 450J.

An alpha particle (a helium nucleus, containing 2 protons and 2 neutrons) starts out with kinetic energy of 10 MeV (10 脳 106 eV), and heads in the +x direction straight toward a gold nucleus (containing 79 protons and 118 neutrons). The particles are initially far apart, and the gold nucleus is initially at rest. Assuming that all speeds are small compared to the speed of light, answer the following questions about the collision. (a) What is the final momentum of the alpha particle, long after it interacts with the gold nucleus? (b) What is the final momentum of the gold nucleus, long after it interacts with the alpha particle? (c) What is the final kinetic energy of the alpha particle? (d) What is the final kinetic energy of the gold nucleus? (e) Assuming that the movement of the gold nucleus is negligible, calculate how close the alpha particle will get to the gold nucleus in this head-on collision.

A spring has an unstretched length of 0.32 m. a block with mass 0.2 kg is hung at rest from the spring, and the spring becomes 0.4 mlong.Next the spring is stretched to a length of 0.43 mand the block is released from rest. Air resistance is negligible.

(a) How long does it take for the block to return to where it was released? (b) Next the block is again positioned at rest, hanging from the spring (0.4 m long) as shown in Figure 10.43. A bullet of mass 0.003 kg traveling at a speed of 200 m/s straight upward buries itself in the block, which then reaches a maximum height above its original position. What is the speed of the block immediately after the bullet hits? (c) Now write an equation that could be used to determine how high the block goes after being hit by the bullet (a height h), but you need not actually solve for h.

In outer space a rock whose mass is 3kg and whose velocity was(3900,-2900,3000)m/sstruck a rock with mass 13kg and velocity(220,-260,300)m/s. After the collision, the 3kg rock鈥檚 velocity is(3500,-2300,3500)m/s. (a) What is the 铿乶al velocity of the 13kg rock? (b) What is the change in the internal energy of the rocks? (c) Which of the following statements about Q (transfer of energy into the system because of a temperature difference between system and surroundings) are correct? (1)Q0 because the duration of the collision was very short. (2)Q=Ethermal of the rocks. (3)Q0 because there are no signi铿乧ant objects in the surroundings. (4)Q=k of the rocks.

The car鈥檚 velocity just before the collision was鉄38, 0, 0鉄﹎/s, and the truck鈥檚 velocity just before the collision was鉄ㄢ垝16, 0, 27鉄﹎/s. (a) Your first task is to determine the velocity of the stuck-together car and truck just after the collision. What system and principle should you use? (1) Energy Principle (2) Car plus truck (3) Momentum Principle (4) Car alone (5) Truck alone (b) What is the velocity of the stuck-together car and truck just after the collision? (c) In your analysis in part (b), why can you neglect the effect of the force of the road on the car and truck? (d) What is the increase in internal energy of the car and truck (thermal energy and deformation)? (e) Is this collision elastic or inelastic?

Consider a head-on collision between two objects. Object 1, which has mass m1, is initially in motion, and collides head-on with object 2, which has massm2and is initially at rest. Which of the following statements about the collision are true?

(1)p1,initial=p1,final+p2,final.

(2)|p1,final|<|p1, initial|.

(3) Ifm2m1, then|p1|>|p2|.

(4) Ifm1m2, then the final speed of object 2 is less than the initial speed of object 1.

(5) Ifm2m1, then the final speed of object 1 is greater than the final speed of object 2.
