Answer:
0.25m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters
m₁ = 5kg
v₁ = 1.0m/s
m₂ = 15kg
v₂ = 0m/s
Unknown:
velocity after collision = ?
Solution:
Momentum before collision and after collision will be the same. For inelastic collision;
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
Insert parameters and solve for v;
5 x 1 + 15 x 0 = v (5 + 15 )
5 = 20v
v = = 0.25m/s
Answer:
(a) 37.5 kg
(b) 4
Explanation:
Force, F = 150 N
kinetic friction coefficient = 0.15
(a) acceleration, a = 2.53 m/s^2
According to the newton's second law
Net force = mass x acceleration
F - friction force = m a
150 - 0.15 x m g = m a
150 = m (2.53 + 0.15 x 9.8)
m = 37.5 kg
(b) As the block moves with the constant speed so the applied force becomes the friction force.
