0.51 m/s to the right.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The two carts lock together. As a result, the collision is inelastic. Kinetic energy will not conserve. Still, momentum conserves.

What's the momentum <em>p</em> of the two carts?

Before the collisions:

  • p_1 = m_1 \cdot v_1 = 0.180 \times 0.80 = 0.144 \; \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}\cdot \text{s}^{-1};
  • p_2 = m_2 \cdot v_2 = 0.
  • Sum of momentum: p = p_1 + p_2 = 0.144\; \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}\cdot \text{s}^{-1}.

Momentum conserves. As a result, p(\text{after collision}) = p(\text{before collision}) = 0.144 \; \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}\cdot \text{s}^{-1}

Velocity is the same for the two carts after the collision. Let v denote that velocity.

p(\text{after collision}) = m_1\cdot v+ m_2 \cdot v = (m_1 + m_2) \cdot v.

v = \dfrac{p(\text{after collision})}{m_1 + m_2} \\ \phantom{v} = \dfrac{0.144}{0.180 + 0.100} \\ \phantom{v} = 0.51 \; \text{m}\cdot \text{s}^{-1}.

Direction of the movement will stay the same. Both cars are now moving to the right.

The International Space Station (ISS) orbits Earth at an altitude of 4.08 × 105 m above the surface of the planet. At what veloc
alukav5142 [94]

This question involves the concepts of orbital velocity and orbital radius.

The orbital velocity of ISS must be "7660.25 m/s".

The orbital velocity of the ISS can be given by the following formula:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}

where,

v = orbital velocity = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

R = orbital radius = radius of earth + altitude = 63.78 x 10⁵ m + 4.08 x 10⁵ m

R = 67.86 x 10⁵ m

Therefore,

v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\ x\ 10^{-11}\ N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97\ x\ 10^{24}\ kg)}{67.86\ x\ 10^5\ m}}

<u>v = 7660.25 m/s</u>

A little girl kicks a soccer ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to her. How is this possible?
marta [7]
A classic puzzle...

She either kicked it at a wall <em>exactly</em><em /> 10 foot in front of her, where the ball rebounded off the wall.

Or, she kicked the ball straight up, vertically, at a <em>90 degree angle,</em> where due to the law of gravity, which states that anything that goes up must come down, when the soccer ball reaches exactly 10 feet, it falls back down.
(Note: This is nearly impossible to achieve -- exactly 10 feet.)
