Explanation:
p1=p2
The momentum of flatcar and the momentum of the worker so
The velocity of the worker is:
The total motion has a total velocity and is
The time the worker take walking is
Now the total time and the total velocity determinate the motion of tha flatcar how far has moved
Answer:
Explanation:
The football players collide in a completely inelastic collision, in other words they have the same velocity after the collision, this velocity has a magnitude V=1.6m/s.
We need to use the conservation of momentum Law, the total momentum is the same before and after the collision, at the initial point the receiver does not have any speed
(1)
We solve in order to find the receiver mass:
Answer:
The final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the first object, m₁ = 3.35 kg
initial velocity of the first object, u₁ = 4.90 m/s in positive x-direction
mass of the second object, m₂ = 1.88 kg
initial velocity of the second object, u₂ = 3.12 m/s in negative y-direction
initial momentum of the first object, P₁ = 3.35 x 4.9 = 16.415 kgm/s
initial momentum of the second object, P₂ = 1.88 x 3.12 = 5.8656 kgm/s
The resultant velocity of the two objects is given by;
R² = 16.415² + 5.8656²
R² = 303.858
R = √303.858
R = 17.432 kgm/s
Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;
total initial momentum before = total final momentum after collision
P₁(x) + P₂(y) = Pf
R = Pf
R = v(m₁ + m₂)
17.432 = v(m₁ + m₂)
where;
v is the final components of velocity of the composite object
Therefore, the final components of velocity of the composite object is 3.33 m/s.
