Answer:

Velocity of Object with 2 kg= 3.390 m/s

Velocity of Object with 3 kg= 3.404 m/s

Explanation:

From the picture, it can be seen that object B is initially at rest while object A is travelling at a speed of 5m/s. After the collision, Object A moves at an angle of 65 degrees while object B moves at an angle of 37 degrees.

We also know that momentum of a closed system is conserved.

Initial momentum along the x-axis = 2*5.5 = 11

Initial momentum along y-axis = 0

Final momentum along x-axis= a*Cos(65)*2 +b*Cos(37) *3= 11 (a is the velocity of object A of 2 kg after collision where as b is the velocity of object B of 3 kg after collision. velocity is multiplied by cosines of the angle from x axis to give the horizontal component of the velocities).

Final momentum along y-axis = a*Sin(65)*2 - b*Sin(37)*3 =0 (We can see that vertical components of velocity are opposite in direction to each other)

Solve both the equations simultaneously for a and b.

A car starts from rest and after 20 seconds it's velocity becomes 108km find the acceleration of the car
andre [41]

Answer:

1.5 km/s²

Explanation:

Given that:

a car starts from rest; it means the initial velocity (u) = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

after time (t) = 20 seconds

the final velocity = 108 km/hr = 30 m/s

The acceleration (a) of the car can be determined by using the formula:

a = \dfrac{v-u}{t}

a = \dfrac{30\  m/s -0 \ m/s}{20 \ s}

a = \dfrac{30 \  m/s}{20 \ s}

a = 1.5 km/s²

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.95 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d=0.0865 m from
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

kinetic energy = 0.1168 J

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, we know that ;

F = kx

k = F/x

We are given ;

Mass; m = 1.95 kg

Spring stretch; d = x = 0.0865

So, Force = mg = 1.95 × 9.81

k = 1.95 × 9.81/0.0865 = 221.15 N/m

Now, initial energy is;

E1 = mgL + ½k(x - L)²

Also, final energy; E2 = ½kx² + ½mv²

From conservation of energy, E1 = E2

Thus;

mgL + ½k(x - L)² = ½kx² + ½mv²

Making the kinetic energy ½mv² the subject, we have;

½mv² = mgL + ½k(x - L)² - ½kx²

We are given L=0.0325 m

Plugging other relevant values, we have ;

½mv² = (1.95 × 9.81 × 0.0325) + (½ × 221.15(0.0865 - 0.0325)² - ½(221.15 × 0.0865²)

½mv² = 0.62170875 + 0.3224367 - 0.82734979375

½mv² = 0.1168 J
