The main difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is that mechanical waves require a medium in order to propagate, while electromagnetic waves can propagate also in vacuum.

Examples of telecommunication via mechanical waves are sound waves (so, two people speaking to each other, for instance), while examples of telecommunication via electromagnetic waves are the radio waves that transmit the TV signals to the houses.

What is "In an isolated system two cars, each with a mass of 2,000 kg, collide. Car 1 is initially at rest , while car 2 was mov
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Final velocity of the combining cars = 10m/s

combined momentum = 40000kgm/s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of both colliding cars = 2000kg

Initial Velocity of car 1 (U1) = 0

Initial Velocity of car 2 (U2) = 20m/s

Combuned momentum after collision =?

This is an inelastic collision which is calculated thus :

M1U1 + M2U2 = M1V + M2V

M1U1 + M2U2 = (M1 + M2) V

Where V = "final Velocity of the colliding bodies

2000 × 0 + 2000 × 20 = (2000 + 2000) V

0 + 40000 = 4000V

V = 40000 / 4000

V = 10m/s

Therefore combined momentum = (M1 + M2) V

(2000 + 2000) 10

4000(10) = 40000kgm/s
