Answer:
The child's mass is 14.133 kg
Explanation:
From the principle of conservation of linear momentum, we have;
(m₁ + m₂) × v₁ + m₃ × v₂ = (m₁ + m₂) × v₃ - m₃ × v₄
We include the negative sign as the velocities were given as moving in the opposite directions
Since the child and the ball are at rest, we have;
v₁ = 0 m/s and v₂= 0 m/s
Hence;
0 = m₁ × v₃ - m₂ × v₄
(m₁ + m₂)× v₃ = m₃ × v₄
Where:
m₁ = Mass of the child
m₂ = Mass of the scooter = 2.4 kg
v₃ = Final velocity of the child and scooter = 0.45 m/s
m₃ = Mass of the ball = 2.4 kg
v₄ = Final velocity of the ball = 3.1 m/s
Plugging the values gives;
(m₁ + 2.4)× 0.45 = 2.4 × 3.1
(m₁ + 2.4) = 16.533
∴ m₁ + 2.4 = 16.533
m₁ = 16.533 - 2.4 = 14.133 kg
The child's mass = 14.133 kg.
1. 6.0 m
force/mass× acceleration is the equation
since the accelaration is unknown you would divide 180 by the mass of 30kg which is 6
2.A
Answer:
higher is safer
Explanation:
because it is a wet slippery surface, you would need more friction on the tires, to get more traction in the slippery wet road, if you had low friction you would not move anywhere and or could swerve off somewhere
General relativity was first proposed by Einstein.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you need the definition :)
