Your car is traveling behind a jeep. Both are moving at the same speed, so the velocity of the jeep relative to you is zero. A s

pare tire is strapped to the back of the jeep. Suddenly the strap breaks, and the tire falls off the jeep. Will your car hit the spare tire before the tire hits the road? Briefly explain.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The spare tire is also moving at the speed of the jeep. When it separates from the jeep, both will be moving at the same horizontal speed, only that the spare tire will also fall at the same time. This if we neglect air friction, that could be a problem since it could cancel the horizontal velocity of the spare tire, although the jeep is blocking most of the air for the spare tire to feel any significant effect in such a short time.

Erosion and Weathering can cause changes in earths surface but how does erosion alone changes the earth surface.
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The action of erosion alone can change the earth's surface. Erosion can wash away nutrients on the earth's surface, change the appearance of the soil of a particular area over time, can bore holes, that form caves, change landscapes for example when the earth is hit with gully erosion by continuous water runoff over time. Erosion can move soil to a new area.

Explanation:

Weathering involves breaking down rock into smaller pieces without any form of formal movement of those broken rock pieces. These processes that can lead to weathering are caused by mechanical, chemical, and organic processes which can happen over time. Erosion can now move broken rock pieces or soil to another place by water or wind. Weathering and erosion constantly change the Earth's surface.

A 0.47 kg mass is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 130 N/m so that the mass is allowed to move on a horizontal fri
Sidana [21]

Answer:

F= 15.6 N,   a= 33.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

mass= m = 0.47 kg

spring constant= k = 130N/m

spring compression = x = 0.12 m

a).

force on the mass= F = k*x

F = 130 * 0.12 N

F= 15.6 N

b).

Acceleration of mass= a=?

F= ma

a=F / m

a= 15.6/ 0.47 m/s^2

a= 33.2 m/s^2

An object has a momentum of 4,000 kg-m/s and a mass of 115 kg. It crashes into another object that has a mass of 100 kg. If the
joja [24]

Answer

19 m/s

Explanation

<u>Finding the velocity of the initial object</u>

Momentum=mass × velocity

P=m×v

4000=115 × v

v=4000/115 =34.78⇒35m/s

<u>Total momentum after the collision</u>

Because the momentum is conserved, the total momentum afterwards =4000kg-m/s

<u>Total mass after collision</u>

Total mass = mass of initial object + mass of second object

Total mass= 115+100= 215kg

<u>Finding new velocity after collision</u>

v=p/m

=4000/215

=18.60

=19m/s
