A rugby player of mass 75 kg, running east at 8.0 m/s, tackles another player of mass 90 kg who is running directly towards him

at 5.0 m/s. If the two players cling together after the tackle, what will be their common velocity?

You can use the formula:
(m1 + m2)vf = m1vi
m1 = mass of first rugby player (75 kg)
m2 = mass of second rugby player (90)
vf = their final velocity
vi = the initial velocity 

(m1 + m2)vf = m1vi
(75 + 90)vf = (75)(8.0)
165(vf) = 600
        vf = 3.64 m/s

hope this helps :)

A train moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 seconds. What is the acceleration?
fredd [130]

Answer:

a = 0.83\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

It's known a train moves from rest (vo=0) to a speed of vf=25 m/s in t=30 seconds. It's required to calculate the acceleration.

Solving for a:

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

Substituting:

\displaystyle a=\frac{25-0}{30}

\boxed{a = 0.83\ m/s^2}
