A 7500 kg truck traveling at 5.0 m/s east collides with a 1500 kg car moving

Physics
1 answer:
julia-pushkina [17]1 year ago

Since the collision is inelastic, both vehicle will move with a common velocity of 2.5 m/s in south east direction after collision.

<h3>Conservation of Linear Momentum</h3>

It states that, the sum of the momentum before collision is equal to the sum of the momentum after collision.

Given that a 7500 kg truck traveling at 5.0 m/s east collides with a 1500 kg car moving at 20 m/s in a direction 30° south of west. After collision, the two vehicles remain tangled together.

The given parameters are;

  • M1 = 7500 kg
  • U1 = 5 m/s
  • M2 = 1500
  • U2 = 20 sin 30 = 10 m/s
  • V = ?

The formula to find the speed will be

M1U1 - M2U2 = (M1 + M2)V

7500 × 5 - 1500 × 10 = (7500 + 1500)V

37500 - 15000 = 9000V

22500 = 9000V

V = 22500/9000

V = 2.5 m/s

Therefore, the common speed will be 2.5 m/s and the direction of the car will be toward the south east.

The unstretched rope is 20 meters. After getting dunked a few times the 80 kg jumper comes to rest above the water with the rope
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Therefore maximum stretch is y2 = 32.36 m

Explanation:

In this problem let's use the initial data to find the string constant, let's apply Newton's second law when in equilibrium

        F_{e} - W = 0

         k Δx = mg

         k = mg / Δx

         k = 80 9.8 / (30-20)

         k = 78.4 N / m

now let's use conservation of energy to find the velocity of the body just as the string starts to stretch y = 20 m

starting point. When will you jump

         Em₀ = U = mg y

final point. Just when the rope starts to stretch

         Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

         Em₀ = Em_{f}

          mg y = ½ m v²

          v = √ 2g y

          v = √ (2 9.8 20)

          v = 19.8 m / s

now all kinetic energy is transformed into elastic energy

starting point

            Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point

            Em_{f} = K_{e} + U = ½ k y² + m g y

            Emo = Em_{f}

           ½ m v² = ½ k y² + mgy

            k y² + 2 m g y - m v² = 0

         

we substitute the values ​​and solve the quadratic equation

            78.4 y² + 2 80 9.8 y - 80 19.8² = 0

            78.4 y² + 1568 y - 31363.2 = 0

              y² + 20 y - 400 = 0

              y = [- 20 ±√ (20 2 +4 400)] / 2

              y = [-20 ± 44.72] / 2

the solutions are

              y₁ = 12.36 m

              y₂ = 32.36 m

These solutions correspond to the maximum stretch and its rebound.

Therefore maximum stretch is y2 = 32.36 m

Consider an electron with charge −e and mass m orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with charge +e.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}, 2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electromagnetic force between the electron and the proton in the nucleus is equal to the centripetal force:

k\frac{(e)(e)}{r^2}=m_e \frac{v^2}{r}

where

k is the Coulomb constant

e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

e is the magnitude of the charge of the proton in the nucleus

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

v is the speed of the electron

m_e is the mass of the electron

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}

Inside an atom of hydrogen, the distance between the electron and the nucleus is approximately

r=5.3\cdot 10^{-11}m

while the electron mass is

m_e = 9.11\cdot 10^{-31}kg

and the charge is

e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Substituting into the formula, we find

v=\sqrt{(9\cdot 10^9 m/s) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)^2}{(9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{-11} m)}}=2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s

I need to know everything about mars. I need to do a full 3 page essay. please help!
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Mars was the Roman god of War along with an agricultural guardian. He is most closely related to the god Ares of Greek Mythology. In Roman mythology, he was second in importance to Jupiter, Rome's god of the Skies and Weather. Jupiter was the king of the Roman Pantheon, husband of the queen of gods Juno. He was also Mars' father. Unlike his Greek Counterpart, Ares who was most known for his hot headed temper and associated with hate and anger, Mars was part of the Romans <em>Archaic Triad</em>, sort of like the Big Three of Greek religion. The members of said Triad included Mars, Jupiter, and Quirinus, who had no Greek equivalent. Mars was most commonly depicted in posed of valor and strength, carrying swords or shields. He wore common Roman armor, including the plumed helmet. He was pictured as a strong leader of the Roman Army. The fourth planet from the Sun was given the name Mars when it was first discovered because it was red, much like the main color the Roman god was affiliated with.

This was mostly just random facts but i hope it helped some with your essay :)
