Does a closed system obey the law of conservation of matter? Write one or two sentences explaining your answer

Yes, a closed system obeys the law of conservation of matter. The law states that matter cannot be created not destroyed, only transferred. Meaning that in a closed system, this matter will be lost from one object but a different object will gain the same matter that was lost, therefore only transferring it. If it were an open system, the matter would be transferred outside the system and therefore you would loose matter on the system, but still, matter was not destroyed or created, it was only transferred from one thing to another.

Explanation:

b) Gravity reduces the initial upward velocity to zero in a time of

t = v/g = 40/10 = 4 s

a) h = v₀t + ½gt² = 40(4) + ½(-10)4² = 80 m

v² = u² + 2as

h = (0² - 40²) / 2(-10) = 80 m

is this true or false? an object with a mass of 9.0kg has an acceleration of 3m/s2. the force acting on it is 3N

ludmilkaskok [199]

The answer is "False". The force acting on the object is 27 N.

According to Newton's second law, when a force F acts on am object of mass m, it produces an acceleration a. The force is given by the expression,

$F=ma$

Thus, if the body has a mass of 9.0 kg and if it has an acceleration of 3 m/s², then, on substituting the values in the equation for force,

$F=ma\\ =(9.0kg)(3m/s^2)\\ =27N$

Thus, it can be seen that the force acting on the body is 27 N and not 3 N as is mentioned in the statement. Hence the statement is false.

Two identical trucks have mass 5100 kg when empty, and the maximum permissible load for each is 8000 kg. the first truck, carryi

Oksanka [162]

The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg. The key here is the conservation of momentum. For the first truck, the momentum is 0(5100 + 4300) The second truck has a starting momentum of 60(5100 + x) And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other. 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Getting rid of the zero term 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Distribute the 60 and the 42. 60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x 306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x Subtract 42x from both sides 306000 + 18x = 609000 Subtract 306000 from both sides 18x = 303000 And divide both sides by 18 x = 16833.33 So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums. 60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000 They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.
