Two 2.0 kg bodies, A and B, collide. The velocities before the collision are ~vA = (15ˆi + 30ˆj) m/s and ~vB = (−10ˆi + 5.0ˆj) m

/s.After the collision, ~vA = (−5.0ˆi + 20ˆj) m/s. What are (a) the final velocity of B and (b) the change in the total kinetic energy (including sign)?

Answer:

Part a)

10\hat i + 15\hat j = \vec v

Part b)

\Delta K = 500 J

Explanation:

As we know that there is no external force on the system of two masses so here total momentum of the system will remains conserved

so we can say

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

(2kg)(15\hat i + 30 \hat j) + (2 kg)(-10\hat i  + 5\hat j) = 2kg(-5\hat i + 20\hat j) + 2\vec v

5\hat i + 35\hat j = (-5\hat i + 20\hat j) +\vec v

10\hat i + 15\hat j = \vec v

Part b)

magnitude of the initial speed of A = \sqrt{15^2 + 30^2} = 33.54 m/s

magnitude of the initial speed of B = \sqrt{10^2 + 5^2} = 11.18 m/s

magnitude of final speed of A = \sqrt{5^2 + 20^2} = 20.61 m/s

magnitude of final speed of B = \sqrt{10^2 + 15^2} = 18.03 m/s

Now change in total kinetic energy is given as

\Delta K = (\frac{1}{2}m_1v_{1i}^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_{2i}^2) - (\frac{1}{2}m_1v_{1f}^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_{2f}^2)

\Delta K = (\frac{1}{2}2(33.54)^2 + \frac{1}{2}2(11.18)^2) - (\frac{1}{2}2(20.61)^2 + \frac{1}{2}2(18.03)^2)

\Delta K = 500 J

2. Does the emphasis on safety vary for each style of vehicle? In what way?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Emphasis on public safety can surely reduce the risk for various groups of population

1. Proper education and training must be provided to make them aware of the risks and how they can manage those risks.

2. Proper rules and regulation must be made and strictly followed for example traffic rules so as to avoid accidents.

3. Disaster management teams should to formed to ensure minimal loss of humans and resources during any natural calamity.

4.Eradication of poverty and illiteracy should be priority so as to ensure people focus on more important issues in life rather than involve themselves in trivial things.
