East: 18.6+30.3/(sqrt2)
South: 19.7+30.3/(sqrt2)
Total displacement: sqrt(east^2+south^2) is 57.3 km

mezya [45]

A box is sliding up an incline that makes an angle of 14.0° with respect to the horizontal. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface of the incline is 0.180. the initial speed of the box at the bottom of the incline is 2.20 m/s. how far does the box travel along the incline before coming to rest?

Newtons laws of motion

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Law 1. A body continues in its state of rest, or in uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force.

Law 2. A body acted upon by a force moves in such a manner that the time rate of change of momentum equals the force.

Law 3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Car A has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling at a rate of 22 km/hr. It collides with car B. Car B has a mass of 1,900 kg and is

anastassius [24]

The car A has a mass of 1200 kg.

The car B has the mass of 1900 kg.

It is given that velocity of car A is given as 22 Km/hr

The car B has the velocity of 25 Km/hr.

Let the mass of two bodies are denoted as $m_{1} \ and\ m_{2}$

Let the velocity of cars A and B are denoted as $v_{1} \ and\ v_{2}$

The momentum before collision is-

$p_{i} =m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2} v_{2}$

[Here p stand for momentum.]

We are asked to calculate the final momentum of the system after collision.

The answer of the question is based law of conservation of linear momentum.

As per law of conservation of linear momentum the sum total linear momentum for an isolated system is always constant.Hence irrespective of the type of collision[elastic and inelastic],the momentum of the system is always constant which is a universal truth.

Let after the collision the velocity of A and B are $v'_{1} \ and\ v'_{2}$

Hence the final momentum of the system is-

$p_{f} = m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}$

As per the law of conservation of linear momentum, the initial and final momentum must be equal i.e

$p_{i} =p_{f}$

$m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2}v_{2} =m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}$

Hence the option A is right.
