A 3,000 kg truck moving at +10 m/s hits a 1,000 kg parked car which moves off at +15 m/s What is the velocity of
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is equal to the product of mass by Velocity.

P = m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

We must also clarify that the momentum is preserved i.e. it is equal before the collision and after the collision

Pbeforecollision = Paftercollision

(m₁*v₁) + (m₂*v₂) = (m₁*v₃) + (m₂*v₄)

where:

m₁ = mass of the truck = 3000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the truck = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the car before the collision = 0 (the car is parked)

v₃ = velocity of the truck after the collision [m/s]

v₄ = velocity of the car after the collision = 15 [m/s]

(3000*10) + (1000*0) = (3000*v₃) + (1000*15)

30000 = 3000*v₃ + 15000

3000*v₃ = 30000 - 15000

3000*v₃ = 15000

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

A cannon is fired horizontally at 243 m/s off of a 62 meter tall, shear vertical cliff. How far in meters from the base of the c
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

A ball thrown horizontally at vi = 30.0 m/s travels a horizontal distance of d = 55.0 m before hitting the ground. from what hei
tekilochka [14]
Assume no air resistance, and g = 9.8 m/s².

Let
x =  angle that the initial velocity makes with the horizontal.
u = 30 cos(x), horizontal velocity
v = 30 sin(x), vertical launch velocity

The horizontal distance traveled is 55 m, therefore the time of flight is
t = 55/[30 cos(x)] = 1.8333 sec(x)  s

With regard to the vertical velocity, and the time of flight,obtain
[30 sin(x)]*(1.8333 sec(x)) + (1/2)*(-9.8)*(1.8333 sec(x))² = 0
 55 tan(x) - 16.469 sec²x = 0
55 tan(x) - 16.469[1 + tan²x] = 0
16.469 tan²x - 55 tan(x) + 16.469 = 0
tan²x - 3.3396 tan(x) + 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula.
tan(x) = 0.5[3.3396 +/- √(7.153)] = 3.007 or 0.3326
Therefore
x = 71.6° or x = 18.4°

The time of flight is
t = 1.8333 sec(x) = 5.8096 s or 1.932 s
The initial vertical velocity is
v = 30 sin(x) = 28.467 m/s or 9.468 m/s
The horizontal velocity is
u = 30 cos(x) = 9.467 m/s or 28.469 m/s

If t = 5.8096 s,
  u*t = 9.467*5.8096 = 55 m (Correct)
or
 u*t = 28.469*15.8096 = 165.4 m (Incorrect)

Therefore, reject x = 18.4°. The correct solution is
t = 5.8096 s
x = 71.6°
u = 9.467 m/s
v = 28.467 m/s

The height from which the ball was thrown is
h = 28.467*5.8096 - 0.5*9.8*5.8096² = -110.4 m
The ball was thrown from a height of 110.4 m

Answer: h = 110.4 m
