Answer:

V = 6.3 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

m₁ = 2 kg

m₂ = 18 kg

m₃ = 9 kg

V₁ = 10 m/s

V₂ = 8 m/s

V₃ = 2 m/s

__________

V - ?

Let us write the momentum conservation law for an inelastic impact:

m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ = (m₁ +m₂ + m₃) ·V

Cart speed after interaction:

V = ( m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ ) / (m₁ +m₂ + m₃)

V = (2·10 + 18·8 + 9·2) / ( 2 + 18 + 9) = 182 / 29 ≈  6.3 m/s

a golfer hits a golf ball with a velocity of 36.0 meters/second at an angle of 28.0. if the hang time of the golf ball is 33.4 s
Kobotan [32]
Solving this using the time, we know that range = horizontal velocity x time of flight 

since there are no horizontal forces acting on the ball, there are no horizontal accelerations and the initial horizontal velocity of 36 cos 28 will be constant throughout. If we use the correct time of flight given the launch parameters, we have 

range = 36 cos 28 x 3.44 s = 109.3 m

What is peer review.why is it important​
madam [21]

Acc to

Publisso

Peer review is subjecting the author's scholarly work and research to the scrutiny of other experts in the same field to check its validity and evaluate its suitability for publication.

A peer review helps the publisher decide whether a work should be accepted.

Maslowich

Answer:

.a = 849.05 m / s²

Explanation

The centripetal acceleration is

            a = v² / r

     

Linear and angular velocity are related

          v = w r

Angular velocity and frequency are related by

        w = 2π f

Let's replace

        a = w² r

         a = 4π² f² r

Let's reduce to the SI system

       f = 2.30 rev / s (2π rad / 1 rev) = 14.45 rad / s

       .r = 10.3 cm = 0.103 m

Let's calculate

       a = 4π² 14.45²  0.103

       .a = 849.05 m / s²
