Let the mass of 2500 kg car be and it's velocity be
and the mass of 1500 kg car be
and it's velocity be
.
After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.
By law of conservation of momentum we have
2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V
V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s
So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s
Answer:
The moment arm is 0.6 m
Explanation:
Given that,
First force
Second force
Distance r = 0.2 m
We need to calculate the moment arm
Using formula of torque
So, Here,
We know that,
The torque is the product of the force and distance.
Put the value of torque in the equation
Where, =First force
=First force
=Second force
= distance
Put the value into the formula
Hence, The moment arm is 0.6 m
