A farmer wants to enclose three sides of a rectangular area that borders a creek. He has 2400 meters of fencing material. What is the maximum area that can be enclosed by the fence?

A 170g cue ball is moving at 3.0 m/s when it strikes a 160g stationary numbered ball (object ball). After the collision the balls move off as shown. Determine the speed of the cue ball and the numbered (object) ball after the collision. The diagram illust...

hI bobpursley, tHANK YOu for your prompt response. Is it possible for you to show the calculations as I've tried to answer it but to no prevail. X 0.5

x: 0.51 kg m/s + 0= 0.17kg Vsin60' +0.16kg Vsin30' y: 0+0= 0.17kgVcos60' +0.16kg cos30' -0.17kgVcos60'=0.16kgcos30'

*but to no avail.

Hi, Apologies again. But what would be the values of a, b, d and e, as well as the Vo and Vc. Our teacher had provided us with an example of one unknown value- so, we haven't been exposed to that formulae and so, am unsure as to how to use it.
