A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. friction is negligible. the person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. the total

mass of the wagon, rider, and rock is 95.5 kg. the mass of the rock is 0.290 kg. initially the wagon is rolling forward at a speed of 0.510 m/s. then the person throws the rock with a speed of 17.5 m/s. both speeds are relative to the ground. find the speed of the wagon after the rock is thrown directly forward.

use the equation mv+mv=mv+mv

95.5(.51)= 95.2(X)+ 17.5(.290)

Now solve for X and that should be your answer

OR

you know that if you throw the rock forward then the the same amount of force is applied backwards onto the person throwing the rock so if the force applied to the rock is mass times velocity then find the force for the cart and subtract the carts force forward by the force the rock exerts backwards.

svlad2 [7]

If current is passed through two parallel conductors in the same direction and the conductors are placed near each other, they will​ attract each other.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current can be defined as the flow of electrons.

Since electrons are easily removed from atom and are very mobile, the flow of electrons constitute an electric current.

Materials which allow electric current to flow through them are known as conductors. Examples of conductors are metals, and electrolytes.

On the other hand, materials which do not allow electric current to pass through them are known as insulators. Examples of insulators are wood and rubber.

The flow of current is known as electricity.

Parallel conductors with current flowing through them in the same direction are attracted to each other as a result of a magnetic field produced by the flow of current.

In conclusion, conductors allow electric current to pass through and the flow of current through a conductor produces a magnetic field.

What is the definition of work when net force is parallel to the distance?
goldfiish [28.3K]
Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector.  The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are.  It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes.  If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity.  So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:
W=Fd
