Answer:
Use the principle of momentum
Initial momentum = final momentum
Momentum formula = Mass * Velocity
Explanation:
Answer:
a) 11 m/s
b) 0.0564 s
Explanation:
Given:
m = 2100 kg
vi = 22 ..... m/s before collision
vf = 0 ......after collision to stop
Δs = 0.62 distance traveled after collision .. crumpling of truck
Part a

Part b

D.N(Newton) this is the S.I unit for force
The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.
<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>
The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.
Now given that;
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)
1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5
0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v
v = -1.2/0.1
v = - 12 m/s
Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.
