Answer:

v2 = 2.36 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is simply the the product of mass of an object and it velocity. Generally, when object moves they have momentum . The unit for momentum is kgm/s.

During collision momentum is conserved . This means that

initial momentum = final momentum

If their is an equal and opposite reaction your momentum should be equal to your BFF.

m1 v1 = m2 v2

m1 = 65 kg

v1 = 2.0 m/s

m2 = 55 kg

v2 = ?

m1 v1 = m2 v2

65 × 2 = 55v2

130  = 55 v2

divide both sides by 55

v2 = 130/55

v2 = 2.36363636364

v2 = 2.36 m/s

Answer:

v2 = 2.36m/s

Explanation:

This problem involves the concept of conservation of momentum. The principle states that total momentum before must equal the total momentum after.

Initially total momentu was zero because both were at rest.

Let m1 and m2 represent the masses 65kg and 55kg and let v1 = -2.0m/s and let v1 = velocity of bff

0 = m1v1 + m2v2

0 = 65×(-2.0) + 55v2

55v2 = 65×2

v2 = 65×2/55 = 130/55 = 2.36m/s

v2 = 2.36m/s

How much heat does a freezer need to remove from 1kg of water at 40°C to make ice at 0°C? (You will need to use the specific hea
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Explanation:

Q = m c Δt

heat withdrawn to lower temperature by 40° C

Q = 1 X 1000 X 40 = 40,000 calories.

Q = mL

heat withdrawn to freeze water at 0°C to ice

= 1 x 80000 = 80,000 calories

total heat to be withdrawn = 120,000 calories. = 120,000 x 4.2 = 504 ,000 Joules.

How much force is needed to slow down a 15 kg car traveling at 60 m/s to 15 m/s in 10 seconds?​
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The force needed to slow down the car is, F = 67.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the car, m = 15 kg

The initial velocity of the car, V = 60 m/s

The final velocity of the car, v = 15 m/s

The time period of deceleration, t = 10 s

The difference in the momentum of the car is,

                                     mV - mv = 15(60 - 15)

                                                    = 675 kg m/s

The rate of change in momentum of the car gives the force acting on it.

                                    F = (mV - mu) / t

Substituting the values,

                                   F = 675 / 10

                                      = 67.5 N

Hence, the force needed to slow down the car is, F = 67.5 N

Which cars have the same magnitude of momentum? Check all that apply. car 1 car 2 car 3 car 4 car 5
wariber [46]

Answer:

Car 1 and Car 2 have the same momentum!

Explanation:

Using the formula of momentum (P=m*v), we get for each car:

Car 1: 5kg*2.2m/s = 11kg*m/s

Car 2: 5.5kg*2m/s = 11kg*m/s

Car 3: 6kg*1.35m/s = 8.1kg*m/s

Car 4: 6.5kg*1.9m/s = 12.35kg*m/s

Car 5: 7kg*1.25m/s = 8.75kg*m/s
