Answer:

1.95 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

0 = (74.9) (-0.215) + m (8.25)

m = 1.95

Determine the kinetic energy of a 1000 kg roller coaster car that is moving with speed of 40.0 m/s​
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

KE=800,000

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2 or Kinetic Energy= 0.5*mass*velocity^2

so 1000 is the mass and 40 is the velocity

KE=0.5*1000*40^2

KE=0.5*1,000*1,600

KE=800,000 Joules

calculate the period of a wave whose frequency is 5 Hertz and whose wavelength is one centimeter give your answer in a decimal f
olga2289 [7]
The period of the wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.

       1 / (5 per second)  =  0.2 second .

The wavelength is irrelevant to the period.  But since you
gave it to us, we can also calculate the speed of the wave.

Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

                   = (5 per second) x (1cm)  =  5 cm per second
