They will rise to the 2nd layer of the atmosphere where the temperature decreases by a lot and then they will blow up
Velocity increases with speed
This is a "trick" question.
If the elevator is traveling at constant speed, it means it is at rest. This means anything inside the elevator traveling at constant speed, weights the same as in an elevator not moving -also at rest-.
So the 100N weight's weight doesn't change in an elevator traveling at constant speed.
First, convert all the km/hr into m/s
You will get that
initial speed = 20 m/s
Initial speed of Green train = 40 m/s
Initial separation = 950 m
Velocity of approach = 20 - -40 = 60 m/s
relative acceleration = -4 m/s^2
v = u + at
0 = 60 - 4t
t = 15s
s = ut + 1/2 *at * t
s = 60 * 15 - 1/2 *4 * 225
s = 900 - 450
Separation when they stop = 450 m
hope this helps
