An experiment is performed aboard the international space station to verify that linear momentum is conserved during collisions in a zero‑gravity environment. the experiment involves a three‑dimensional, completely inelastic collision of three drops of honey. at the moment just before they all collide, the masses m and velocities → v of the drops are m 1 = 35.5 g → v 1 = ( 13.1 m / s ) ^ x m 2 = 52.3 g → v 2 = ( 14.5 m / s ) ^ y m 3 = 75.7 g → v 3 = ( 18.3 m / s ) ^ z what is your prediction for the speed, v , of the combined honey drop after the collision?

Answer from: Chandler1Gaming

$v=15.9554\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the honey drop 1, $m_1=35.5\times 10^{-3}\ kg$ velocity of the honey drop 1, $v_1=13.1\ m.s^{-1}$ mass of the honey drop 2, $m_1=52.3\times 10^{-3}\ kg$ velocity of the honey drop 2, $v_2=14.5\ m.s^{-1}$ mass of the honey drop 3, $m_1=75.7\times 10^{-3}\ kg$ velocity of the honey drop 3, $v_3=18.3\ m.s^{-1}$

In ISS there is zero gravity an the collision is completely inelastic.

So, applying the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2+m_3.v_3=(m_1+m_2+m_3).v

$35.5\times 10^{-3}\times 13.1+52.3\times 10^{-3}\times 14.5+75.7\times 10^{-3}\times 18.3=(35.5+52.3+75.7)\times 10^{-3}\times v$

$v=15.9554\ m.s^{-1}$

quantum mechanics or quantum physics is physics of very small objects (particles) and physical entities.

quantum physics has some parallels to our macro world and some pretty unique ideas which theoretically and mathematically proven to be true even though we will never be able to access them because of our size.

there are many types of particles: subatomic, elementary etc.

subatomic means they are smaller than atom, elementary means they are at the very basis of everything.

subatomic particles are for eg. protons, neutrons but not electrons.

elementary particles are categorised into 3 groups by what they do.

these 3 groups are quarks, leptons and bosons.

light for example is a particle more precisely a photon a part of leptons.

proton (subatomic particle) is made out of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark each of these has a fractional charge like $\frac{1}{3}$ . (i crazy)

most famous scientist who contributed to this physics are:

max planckalbert einsteinerwin schrödingermany

the topic itself us understand a lot and will probably be vastly used in the future (quantum computers, understanding the big bang,

we also must not forget quantum effects like:

superposition (where 1 thing can be this and that at the same time),entanglement (where two particles are seemingly connected by some sort of unknown (or known) force, energy, matter (i know all that can be the same at least it was at the beginning)

and there is more. but probably too much for this answer to be consistent due to my average understanding of this topic.

hope this you understand quantum mechanics a little more. i'm not an expert in the topic (so don't be like wth if you are an expert) but i'm very interested in it.

anyways quantum physics is a very hard topic (harder than physics (perhaps)) therefore searching for every information there is about it and learning it is unfortunately impossible (you can only specialise into 1 - 3 things or more (perhaps

have fun and i wish you luck!

Answer from: Quest

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2. since the mass is constant we can form a ratio of it's kinetic energy at 60 divided by that at 30 to see ke(60)/ke(30) = +(60^2)/30^2). this may be said to 300% increase.
