Answer:

0.5 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

A 500 g model train car traveling at 0.8 m/s collides with a 300 g stationary car.

Initial velocity of train, v_T=0.8\ m/s

Initial velocity of car, v_C=0\ m/s

Mass of train, m_T=500\ g

Mass of car, m_C=300\ g

The cars hook up and move off down the track together.

Let the final velocity of car and train, v_T=v_C=v

Using conservation of momentum,

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

m_T\times v_T+m_C\times v_C=(m_T+m_C)\times v

500\times 0.8+300\times 0=(500+300)\times v

v=\dfrac{400}{800}

v=0.5\ m/s

Hence, After collision they will going with 0.5 m/s

Answer:

0.5ms^{-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v be the speed after the collision of both the cars.

Now, momentum is given by: mass × velocity, then by equating the total momentum before and after the collision of the two cars, we get

500{\times}0.8+300{\times}0=(500+300)v

⇒400+0=800v

⇒400=800v

⇒v=0.5ms^{-1}

Thus, they are moving at the velocity of 0.5ms^{-1}

Answer:

C, $4.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly you would see that the cost of 5.2 pounds of grapes is $7.75, so you would divide to find the cost of 1 pound of grapes so 7.75/5.2= 1.49 (round to the nearest 100). Then, times 1.49 by 3. Then you get $4.47

Whats 4.25 increased by 15%
Firlakuza [10]
You would turn the 15% into a decimal which is .15 then multiply .15 by 4.25. After multiplying those together add 4.25 to the answer.

the size of a rectangular computer screen is determined by the length of its diagonal. tom buys a 52cm screen that is 33 cm high
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

40.20cm approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

given data

We are told that the dimension of a computer screen

diagonal= 52 cm

height= 33cm

Length = ?

Required

The length of the base of the screen

Step two

Let us use Pythagoras theorem to find the length of the base

Hyp^2= Opp^2+ Adj^2

52^2= 33^2+ L^2

2704= 1089+L^2

L^2= 2704-1089

L^2= 1615

L=√1615

L= 40.20cm approx

<u>The length is 40.20cm approx.</u>

PLEASE HELP!! A classmate wrote the set notation for the values of the domain of a function {−5, −4, −3, −2, −1, 0} as {x | −5 ≤
vfiekz [6]
<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

The set notation includes all values from -5 to 0, but the domain only includes the integer values

eg: something like -1.2 is in the second set, but it is not in the set {-5,-4,-3,-2,-1}

==========================================================

Further explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices one by one

  • A. This is false because 0 does not come before -5, but instead -5 is listed first. The order -5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0 is correct meaning that -5 \le x \le 0 is the correct order as well.
  • B. This is true. A value like x = -1.2 is in the set \left\{x| -5 \le x \le 0\right\} since -1.2 is between -5 and 0; but -1.2 is not in the set {-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0}. So the distinction is that we're either considering integers only or all real numbers in this interval. To ensure that we only look at integers, the student would have to write \left\{x| x\in\mathbb{Z}, \ -5 \le x \le 0\right\}. The portion x \in \mathbb{Z} means "x is in the set of integers". The Z refers to the German word Zahlen, which translates to "numbers".
  • C. This is false. The student used the correct inequality signs to indicate x is -5 or larger and also 0 or smaller; basically x is between -5 and 0 inclusive of both endpoints. The "or equal to" portions indicate we are keeping the endpoints and not excluding them.
  • D. This is false. Writing -5 \ge x \ge 0 would not make any sense. This is because that compound inequality breaks down into -5 \ge x \ \text{ and } \ x \ge 0. Try to think of a number that is both smaller than -5 AND also larger than 0. It can't be done. No such number exists.
