Cart A and cart B are traveling in the same direction on a straight track. Cart A is moving at 9.25 m/s and cart B is moving at

7.15 m/s. The mass of cart A is 72.0 kg and the mass of cart B is 55.0 kg. Cart A catches up to and collides with cart B. After they collide, cart A slows down to 6.15 m/s. Find the final speed of cart B.

Answer:

The speed of cart B is 11.21 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cart A = 9.25 m/s

Speed of cart B = 7.15 m/s

Mass of cart A = 72.0 kg

Mass of cart B = 55.0 kg

Speed of card A after collision = 6.15 m/s

We need to calculate the speed of cart B

Using conservation of momentum

m_{A}v_{A}+m_{B}v_{B}=m_{A}v_{A}+m_{B}v_{B}

Put the value into the formula

72.0\times9.25+55.0\times7.15=72.0\times6.15+55.0\times v_{B}

v_{B}=\dfrac{72.0\times9.25+55.0\times7.15-72.0\times6.15}{55.0}

v_{B}=11.21\ m/s

Hence, The speed of cart B is 11.21 m/s.

Imagine that the ball on the left is given a nonzero initial velocity in the horizontal direction, while the ball on the right c
masya89 [10]

Answer:

vₓ = xg/2y

Explanation:

In this question, let us  find the time it takes for the ball on the right that has zero initial velocity to reach the ground.

By newton equation of motion we know that

y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

t = 2y / g

This is the time it takes for the ball on the right to reach the ground; at this time the ball on the left travels a distance

vₓ = x/t

vₓ = xg/2y

vₓ = xg/2y

Where we assume that x and y are known.

You add 800 ml of water at 20c to 800 ml of water at 80c what is the most likely final temperature of the mixture ?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

d. 50 C

Explanation:

In this problem, we have to add 800 ml of water at 20 Celsius to 800 ml of water at 80 Celsius.

According to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, heat transfers from hot to cold temperature.

The quantity of both the different waters is equal so this makes it very easy. All we have to do is find the mean of both the temperatures:

Final temperature = (20 C + 80 C)/2

= 50 Celsius

stira [4]

Answer:D

Explanation:according to the law of conservation of energy/momentum, when two bodies collides, their total momentum and energy before and after collision are equal. Given that the two bodies move with the same velocities after collision, means that the law has not been violated since momentum = mass x velocity (where mass is constant)
