uppose two train cars are moving toward one another, the first with a mass of 150,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s; the second

with a mass of 110,000 kg and a velocity of -0.120 m/s. what is their velocity just after they become coupled?

The value was determined to be 0.122 m/s. The velocity of a body or object determines its direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quantity in its most fundamental form.

Velocity is essentially a vector quantity. It is the rate of change in distance. The initial speed of the first train, which has a mass of 150,000 kg, is 0.3 m/s. The second train has an initial speed of -0.120 m/s and a mass of 110,000 kg.

Let v represent the post-collision speed of the connected mass.

Utilize the idea of momentum.

The speed of the trains is constant both before and after a collision.

150.000 + 110.000v 45.000 - 13200 = 260.000 v 31800 = 260.000 v v = 0.122 m/s 150000 x 0.3 - 110000 x 0.120

After colliding, they move at a speed of 0.122 m/s towards the direction of the right.

Digiron [165]

Newton’s second law: F=ma. 2500=1000a. a=2.5m/s*s. Final velocity is 2.5*30=75m/s. Average speed is (Vi+Vf)/2, which is 37.5m/s. D=vt. 37.5*30=1125m. The distance traveled is 1125 meters

9. Which of the following characteristics of water is most responsible for the sinking of the Titanic? A. Water is liquid at roo
lozanna [386]

Answer:

D. Frozen water is less dense than liquid water.

Explanation:

Titanic sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the year 1912. There were more than 2000 passengers on board from which about 1500 died.

Frozen water that is ice has less density than liquid water. The density of ice is 0.9167 g/cm^3 and the density of the water is 0.9998 g/cm^3.

Due to this very slight difference in density, ice floats on water. Titanic, on the night of April 14, 1912, crashed into an iceberg around midnight which caused opening of 5 of its watertight compartments. The water filled into the ship and it eventually sank in.

a particle of mass 1.3kg is sliding down a frictionless slope inclined at 30 to the horizontal. the acceleration of the particle
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

4.9\ m/sec^2

Explanation:

The computation of acceleration of the particle down the slope is shown below:-

data provided in the question

Particle of mass = 1.3 kg i,e sliding down

Inclined = 30 to the horizontal

based on the above information

Force is given by

N = mg\ cos \theta ............ 1

and sliding force is given by

F = mg\ sin\alpha

a = g(sin\ 30^{\circ})

= 9.8\times \frac{1}{2} m/sec^2

= = 4.9\ m/sec^2

Hence, the acceleration of the particle down the slope is 4.9 m/sec^2
