Answer:
roof bow upwards
Explanation:
The top of the roof of the small ranger vehicle will bow upwards. This is as a result of gas pressure on the soft ragtop roof.
- As air begins to fill the vehicle, pressure resonates in all direction proportionally.
- The pressure of the air will be greater than that which the roof can withstand and this forces the roof sky up.
- It is a common scene when we see roof of ragtop vehicles bowing upwards into the sky.
Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg
Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s
mass of orange train = 200 kg
Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)
To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which
The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum
Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,
(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s
Answer:
2000 kg m/s
Explanation:
The momentum of an object is a vector quantity whose magnitude is given by

where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
and its direction is the same as the velocity.
In this problem, we have:
- Spaceship 1 has
m = 200 kg (mass)
v = 0 m/s (zero velocity)
So its momentum is

- Spaceship 2 has
m = 200 kg (mass)
v = 10 m/s (velocity)
So its momentum is

Therefore, the combined momentum of the two spaceships is
