Given: M1= 75kg; M2 = 50kg; V (M1) = 10 m/s North; V (M2) = 10 m/s West

Action: Collision, two masses stick together, move at unspecified angle in M2's initial direction

Question: Find magnitude of their speed together after collision.

Solutions

Expert Solution

The principle of conservation of momentum states that if two objects collide, then the total momentum before and after the collision will be the same if there is no external force acting on the colliding objects.

A ball, mass m1 = 0.1 kg, is moving upwards with a speed of 10 m/s when it collides inelastically with a cup, mass m2 = 0.9 kg, that is initially at rest. After the collision the system (ball+cup) moves straight upwards without rotating. This collision occurs on Earth, and the local gravitational field points down with g = 9.8 m/s2 . (a) What is the momentum of the system before the collision? Write your final answers and neatly show...

The intensity levels I of two earthquakes measured on a seismograph can be compared by the formula log I1/I2 = M1 – M2, where M is the magnitude given by the Richter Scale.

The intensity levels I of two earthquakes measured on a seismograph can be compared by the formula log I1/I2 = M1 – M2, where M is the magnitude given by the Richter Scale. In August 2009, an earthquake of magnitude 6.1 hit Honshu, Japan. In March 2011, that same region experienced yet another, more devastating earthquake, this time with a magnitude of 9.0. How many times greater was the intensity of the 2011 earthquake? Round to the nearest whole number.
