We're already in trouble, even before we start working on this question.

"Gram" is a unit of mass, not a unit of weight or force.  So no matter how we manipulate it or massage it, there's no way to convert it to "lbs".  The best we can do is take 'g' to mean 'the WEIGHT of a gram of mass', and then decide which planet we want to solve the question for, since 1 gram has a different weight on every different planet.  

I've decided to solve it for Earth, where 1 gram of mass weighs 0.035 oz or 0.0022 lb.

(636 gram-weight-on-Earth/cm) (0.0022 lb/gram-weight) (1 cm / 0.0328 foot) =

(636 · 0.0022 / 0.0328) (gm-lb-cm / cm-gm-foot) =

42.74 lb/foot

Which statement is true about an atom and an element?
Lemur [1.5K]
"<span>An atom is the smallest unit of matter and an element is a pure substance that is made of identical atoms" is correct. Although atoms can be broken down further now, it still take a whole atom to make an element. </span>

A 1560-kilogram truck moving with a speed of 28.0 m/s runs into the rear end of a 1070-kilogram stationary car. If the collision
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ  

Explanation:

given data

Truck mass  M =  1560 Kg

Truck initial speed, u = 28 m/s

mass of car m = 1070 Kg

initial speed of car u1 = 0 m/s

solution

first we get here final speed by using conservation of momentum  that is express as

Mu = (M+m) V     .......................1

put here  value we get

1560 × 28 = (1560 + 1070 ) V

solve it we get

final speed V = 16.60 m/s

and

Change in kinetic energy  will be here

Δ KE =   \frac{1}{2} Mu^2 - \frac{1}{2}(M+m)V^2         .................2

put here value and we get

 Δ KE = \frac{1}{2}\times 1560\times 28^2 - \frac{1}{2}\times (1560 + 1070)\times 16.60^2  

solve it we get

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ

A body with initial velocity 8.0 m/s moves along a straight line with constant acceleration and travels
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<em>(a) The average velocity is 16 m/s</em>

<em>(b) The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2</em>

<em>(c) The final velocity is 24 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity (or the speed) of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, final speed is calculated as follows:

v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]

(a) The average velocity is defined as the total distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel that distance.

We know the distance is x=640 m and the time taken t= 40 s, thus:

\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{x}{t}=\frac{640}{40}=16

The average velocity is 16 m/s

Using the equation [1] we can solve for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

(c) From [2] we can solve for a:

\displaystyle a= 2\frac{x-v_ot}{t^2}

Since vo=8 m/s, x=640 m, t=40 s:

\displaystyle a= 2\frac{640-8\cdot 40}{40^2}=0.4

The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2

(b) The final velocity is calculated by [1]:

v_f=8+0.4\cdot 40

v_f=8+16=24

The final velocity is 24 m/s
