The average velocity of the object in moving from point-B to point-C is
(the straight-line distance and direction from point-B to point-C)
divided by
(the time the object takes to make the trip) .
Answer:
Explanation: The Earth's surface is constantly changing through forces in nature. The daily processes of precipitation, wind and land movement result in changes to landforms over a long period of time. Driving forces include erosion, volcanoes and earthquakes. People also contribute to changes in the appearance of land.
Yes, but the velocity of the bullet would have to be much higher. Because momentum is defined as p=mv, for a bullet, which has a much, much smaller mass than a car or a truck, to have the same value for p,
Answer: 4.77m/s
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of momentum which states that the sum total of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of their momentum after collision. Note that the two bodies will move at a common velocity after colliding.
Let m1 and m2 be the mass of the first and second railroad cars
u1 and u2 be the velocities of the railroad cars
v be the common velocity
Using the formula
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 +m2)
m1 = 1.20×10⁴kg
m2 = 1.20×10⁴kg (body of same mass)
u1 = 7.70m/s
u2 = 1.84m/s
v = ?
(1.20×10⁴×7.7) + (1.20×10⁴×1.84) = (1.20×10⁴ + 1.20× 10⁴)v
9.24×10⁴ + 2.21×10⁴ = 2.4×10⁴v
11.45×10⁴ = 2.4×10⁴v
v = 11.45×10⁴/2.4×10⁴
v = 4.77m/s
The velocity of the cars after collision will be 4.77m/s
