A car (mass = 1200 kg) is traveling at 31.1 m/s when it collides head-on with a sport utility vehicle (mass = 2830 kg) traveling
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

13.18 m/s

Explanation:

Let the velocity of sports utility car is

-u as it is moving in opposite direction.

mc = 1200 kg, uc = 31.1 m/s

ms = 2830 kg, us = - u = ?

Using conservation of momentum

mc × uc + ms × us = 0

1200 × 31.1 - 2830 × u = 0

u = 13.18 m/s

The total mechanical energy of a basketball is 400 J. If the kinetic energy is 286 J, what must the potential energy be?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

the potential energy is 114 J.

Explanation:

Given;

total mechanical energy, E = 400 J

kinetic energy, K.E = 286 J

The potential energy is calculated as follows;

E = K.E +  P.E

where;

P.E is the potential energy

P.E = E - K.E

P.E = 400 J - 286 J

P.E = 114 J

Therefore, the potential energy is 114 J.

A 15 m uniform ladder weighing 500 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60° angle with horizontal. (a) Find t
scoray [572]

Answer:

a)    F₁ = 267.3 N,   N₁ = 1300 N,  b)    μ = 0.324

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium condition, we have a reference system is the floor and the anticlockwise rotations as positive, in the adjoint we can see a diagram of the forces

           

let's use subscript 1 for the ladder and 2 for the firefighter

            ∑ τ = 0

          -W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ + N₁ y = 0

           N₁ = \frac{W_1 x_1 + W_2 x_2}{y}          (1)

the center of mass of the ladder is at its geometric center,

d = L / 2 = 15/2 = 7.5 m

         cos 60 = x₁ / d₁

         x₁ = d₁ cos 60

         x₁ = 7.5 cos 60

         x₁ = 3.75 m

for the firefighter d₂ = 4 m

         cos 60 = x₂ / d₂

         x₂ = d₂ cos 60

          x₂ = 4 cos 60 = 2 m

for the fulcrum d₃ = 15 m

         sin 60 = y / d₃

         y = d₃ sin 60

         y = 15 sin 60

         y = 13 m

we look for the Normal by substituting in equation 1

         N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 2}{13}

         N₂ = 267.3 N

now let's use the translational equilibrium relations

 X axis

           F₁ - N₂ = 0

           F₁ = N₂

           F₁ = 267.3 N

Axis y

          N₁ - W₁ -W₂ = 0

          N₁ = W₁ + W₂

          N₁ = 500 + 800

          N₁ = 1300 N

b) for this case change the firefighter's distance d₂ = 9 m

          x₂ = 9 cos 60

          x₂ = 4.5 m

we substitute in 1

          N₂ = \frac{500 \ 3.75 \ + 800 \ 4.5}{13}  

          N₂ = 421.15 N

of the translational equilibrium equation on the x-axis

          fr = F₁ = N₂

          fr = 421.15 N

friction force has the expression

          fr = μ N

in this case the reaction of the Earth to the support of the ladder is N1 = 1300N

          μ = fr / N₁

          μ = 421.15 / 1300

          μ = 0.324
