A 100 g cart is moving at 0.5 m/s that collides elastically from a stationary 180 g cart. Final velocity is calculated to be 0.25m/s.

Collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision is known as elastic collision . Momentum and kinetic energy both are conserved quantities in elastic collisions.

Collision in which part of the kinetic energy is changed to some other form of energy is inelastic collision.

For an elastic collision, we use the formula,

m₁V₁i+ m₂V₂i = m₁V1f + m₂V₂f

For a perfectly elastic collision, the final velocity of the 100g cart will each be 1/2 the velocity of the initial velocity of the moving cart.

Final velocity = 0.5/2

=0.25 m/s.

If you fire a gun horizontally, and at the same time drop a bullet/slug from the same height, what will happen?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

There you have it. The y-component of air resistance for the fired bullet still depends on the fired speed of the bullet (since it is proportional to v2). A fired bullet (with air resistance) does not hit the ground at the same time as a dropped bullet.

A snowmobile has an initial velocity of 4.7 m/s.
zimovet [89]
Q1. The answer is 8.788 m/s

V2 = V1 + at
V1 - the initial velocity
V2 - the final velocity
a - the acceleration
t - the time

We have:
V1 = 4.7 m/s
a = 0.73 m/s²
t = 5.6 s
V2 = ?

V2 = 4.7 + 0.73 * 5.6
V2 = 4.7 + 4.088
V2 = 8.788 m/s


Q2. The answer is 9.22 s

V2 = V1 + at
V1 - the initial velocity
V2 - the final velocity
a - the acceleration
t - the time

We have:
V2 = 0   (because it reaches a complete stop)
V1 = 4.7 m/s
a = -0.51 m/s²
t = ?

0 = 4.7 + (-0.51)*t
0 = 4.7 - 0.51t
0.51t = 4.7
t = 4.7 / 0.51
t = 9.22 s
