A 7950-kg railroad car travels alone on a level frictionless track with a constant speed of 15.0 m/s . A 2950-kg load, initially
1 answer:
The new speed of car is 10.9 m/s
<h3 />According to the principle of momentum conservation, momentum is only modified by the action of forces as they are outlined by Newton's equations of motion; momentum is never created nor destroyed inside a problem domain.
Mass of the railroad car, m₁ = 7950 kg
Mass of the load, m₂ = 2950 kg
It can be assumed as the speed of the car, u₁ = 15 m/s
Initially, it is at rest, u₂ = 0
Let v is the speed of the car. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :
Therefore, the new speed of care is 10.9 m/s

Answer:
a) Yes, there are shakes in a second (
) in a year there are 31,536,000 seconds... that is 3.1536x
(
)
b) Note that the defined universe day will have 60*60*24=86400 universe seconds if the seconds are defined as normal seconds.
Also one universe day (or 86400 universe seconds) is equivalent to 1010 years. Now using a rule of three we can know the seconds that humans have existed.
That is about 2 and half hours.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that
Radius of track = R
Radius of ball = r
The ball can be treated as solid sphere, so
The moment of inertia of ball
When the ball reach at the lowest position then it will have both angular and linear speed.
Condition for rolling without slipping v= ωr
Form energy conservation
v= ωr
