the formula for momentum is velocity times mass
car :
1200 x 30 = 36000
truck:
2000 x 20 = 40000
Ans : truck has a greater momentum
Answer:
37.8 m
Explanation:
At point 0, the ball is at height y₀.
At point 1, the ball is at height 30 m.
At point 2, the ball is at height 0 m.
Given:
y₁ = 30 m
y₂ = 0 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = -10 m/s²
t₂ − t₁ = 1.5 s
Find: y₀
Use constant acceleration equation.
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
Evaluate at point 1.
y₁ = y₀ + v₀ t₁ + ½ at₁²
30 m = y₀ + (0 m/s) t₁ + ½ (-10 m/s²) t₁²
30 = y₀ − 5t₁²
Evaluate at point 2.
y₂ = y₀ + v₀ t₂ + ½ at₂²
0 m = y₀ + (0 m/s) t₂ + ½ (-10 m/s²) t₂²
0 = y₀ − 5t₂²
y₀ = 5t₂²
Substitute:
y₀ = 5 (1.5 + t₁)²
y₀ = 5 (2.25 + 3t₁ + t₁²)
y₀ = 11.25 + 15t₁ + 5t₁²
30 = 11.25 + 15t₁ + 5t₁² − 5t₁²
30 = 11.25 + 15t₁
t₁ = 1.25
30 = y₀ − 5t₁²
30 = y₀ − 5(1.25)²
y₀ ≈ 37.8
These are called neap tides!
Hope this helps :)
