A 6kg mass traveling at speed 10m/s strikes a stationarymass head-on, and the two masses stick together.

(a) What was the initial total kinetic energy?

(b) What is the final speed?

(c) What is the final total kinetic energy?

(d) What was the increase in internal energy of the two masses?

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.

In a nuclear 铿乻sion reactor, each 铿乻sion of a uranium nucleus is accompanied by the emission of one or more high-speed neutrons, which travel through the surrounding material. If one of theneutrons is captured in another uranium nucleus, it can trigger 铿乻sion, which produces more fast neutrons, which could make possible a chain reaction

It has been proposed to propel spacecraft through the Solar System with a large sail that is struck by photons from the Sun.

(a). Which would be more effective, a black sail that absorbs photons or a shiny sail that re铿俥cts photons back toward the Sun? Explain brie铿倅

(b). Suppose thatphotons hit a shiny sail per second, perpendicular to the sail. Each photon has energy. What is the force on the sail? Explain brie铿倅

A Fe-57 nucleus is at rest and in its first excited state, 14.4 keV above the ground state (14.4 脳 103 eV, where 1 eV = 1.6脳10鈭19 J). The nucleus then decays to the ground state with the emission of a gamma ray (a high-energy photon). (a) Wthe recoil speed of the nucleus? (b) Calculate the slight difference in eV between the gamma-ray energy and the 14.4 keV difference between the initial and final nuclear states. (c) The 鈥淢枚ssbauer effect鈥 is the name given to a related phenomenon discovered by Rudolf M枚ssbauer in 1957, for which he received the 1961 Nobel Prize for physics. If the Fe-57 nucleus is in a solid block of iron, occasionally when the nucleus emits a gamma ray the entire solid recoils as one object. This can happen due to the fact that neighbouring atoms and nuclei are connected by the electric interatomic force. In this case, repeat the calculation of part (a) and compare with your previous result. Explain briefly

Under what conditions is the momentum of a system constant? Can the x component of momentum be constant even if the y component is changing? In what circumstances? Give an example of such behavior.

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.
