Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) frombehind while going 35 m/s. Immediately after the collision, car Bmove

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy lost in the collision in term of the initial energy is 0.49.

Explanation:

As the final and initial velocities are known it is possible then the kinetic energy is possible to calculate for each instant.

By definition, the kinetic energy is:

k = 0.5*mV^2

Expressing the initial and final kinetic energy for cars A and B:

$ki=0.5*maVa_{i}^2+0.5*mbVb_{i}^2$

$kf=0.5*maVa_{f}^2+0.5*mbVb_{f}^2$

Since the masses are equals:

$m=ma=mb$

For the known velocities, the kinetics energies result:

$ki=0.5*mVa_{i}^2$

$ki=0.5*m(35 m/s)^2=612.5m^2/s^2*m$

$kf=0.5*mbVb_{f}^2$

$kf=0.5*m(25 m/s)^2=312.5m^2/s^2*m$

The lost energy in the collision is the difference between the initial and final kinectic energies:

$kl=ki-kf$

$kl = 612.5m^2/s^2*m-312.5 m^2/s^2*m=300 m^2/s^2*m$

Finally the relation between the lost and the initial kinetic energy:

$kl/ki = 300 m^2/s^2 * m / 612.5 m^2/s^2 * m$

$kl/ki = 24/49=0.49$

Speed and Motion you went from the starting line to the finish line at different rates. If you repeated the activity while carry

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

It will cause kinetic energy to increase.

Explanation:

Given that Speed and Motion you went from the starting line to the finish line at different rates.

If you repeated the activity while carrying weights but keeping your times the same, the weight carried will add up to the mass of the body.

And since Kinetic energy K.E = 1/2mv^2

Increase in the mass of the body will definitely make the kinetic energy of the body to increase.

Since the time is the same, that means the speed V is the same.

Weight W = mg

m = W/g

The new kinetic energy will be:

K.E = 1/2(M + m)v^2

This means that there will be increase in kinetic energy.

- Explain why an aircraft will tend to lose height

olganol [36]

Answer:

the planes wings are lifting at an angle to gravity so the plane isn't lifting as much against gravity when it banks. some of the wing lift is going into turning the plane. :) so it needs more lift to bank and stay up

Freight car A with a gross weight of 200,000 lbs is moving along the horizontal track in a switching yard at 4 mi/hr. Freight ca

zhenek [66]

Answer: a) 4.7 mi/hr. b) 86,500 lbs. mi²/Hr²

Explanation:

As in any collision, under the assumption that no external forces exist during the very small collision time, momentum must be conserved.

If the collision is fully inelastic, both masses continue coupled each other as a single mass, with a single speed.

So, we can write the following:

p₁ = p₂ ⇒m₁.v₁ + m₂.v₂ = (m₁ + m₂). vf

Replacing by the values, and solving for vf, we get:

vf = (200,000 lbs. 4 mi/hr + 100,000 lbs. 6 mi/hr) / 300,000 lbs = 4.7 mi/hr

If the track is horizontal, this means that thre is no change in gravitational potential energy, so any loss of energy must be kinetic energy.

Before the collision, the total kinetic energy of the system was the following:

K₁ = 1/2 (m₁.v₁² + m₂.v₂²) = 3,400,000 lbs. mi² / hr²

After the collision, total kinetic energy is as follows:

K₂ = 1/2 ((m₁ + m₂) vf²) = 3,313,500 lbs. mi²/hr²

So we have an Energy loss, equal to the difference between initial kinetic energy and final kinetic energy, as follows:

DE = K₁ - K₂ = 86,500 lbs. mi² / hr²

This loss is due to the impact, and is represented by the work done by friction forces (internal) during the impact.
