A moving small car has a head-on collision with a large stationary truck 7.3 times the mass of the car. Which statement is true

about the direction of the car after the collision if the collision is elastic? The car continues moving in its initial direction with the same velocity. The car bounces off and moves in the opposite direction. The car keeps moving in its initial direction with a lower velocity than at first. The car stops completely.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Part a)

H = 44.1 m

Part b)

y = 13.48 m

Part c)

d = 8.86 m

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that ball will reach at maximum height at

t = 3 s

now we will have

t = \frac{v sin\theta}{g}

now we have

3 = \frac{vsin\theta}{9.8}

v sin\theta = 29.4 m/s

Now maximum height above ground is given as

H = \frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}

H = \frac{29.4^2}{2(9.8)}

H = 44.1 m

Part b)

Height of the fence is given as

y = (vsin\theta) t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

y = (29.4)(5.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.5^2)

y = 13.48 m

Part c)

As we know that its horizontal distance moved by the ball in 5.5 s is given as

x = v_x t

97.5 = v_x (5.5)

v_x = 17.72 m/s

now total time of flight is given as

T = 3 + 3 = 6 s

so range is given as

R = v_x T

R = (17.72)(6)

R = 106.4 m

so the distance from the fence is given as

d = 106.4 - 97.5

d = 8.86 m

The best scientific reason for a scientist to accept a specific theory is?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The theory is supported by all the available observations and data.

Explanation: The scientific community will accept a theory when a sufficient body of evidence supports it. This includes experiments that refute other potential theories. Experiments should also be carried out that attempt to disprove the theory but cannot.

It should not matter who proposed the theory or who supports it, and instead should entirely be based on the quality and abundance of data supporting it.

Hope this helps!

When a pendulum is at the position all the way to the left when it is swinging (at the top of the arc), what is true of the kine
JulsSmile [24]
Choice - B is the correct one.

At the top of the arc, at one end of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any higher, so the potential energy is maximum
-- it stops moving for an instant, so the kinetic energy is zero

At the bottom of the arc, in the center of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any lower, so the potential energy is minimum
-- it's not going to move any faster, so the kinetic energy is maximum

Julio blows air across his hot bowl of soup. The tiny ripples he creates are similar to _____.
Allushta [10]

The tiny ripples on the soup are not only similar to wind-generated
waves ... they ARE wind-generated waves.  This is a big part of the
reason why they bear such an uncanny resemblance.

A player kicks a soccer ball in a high arc toward the opponent's goal. At the highest point in its trajectory
____ [38]

At the highest point in its trajectory, the ball's acceleration is zero but its velocity is not zero.

<h3>What's the velocity of the ball at the highest point of the trajectory?</h3>
  • At the highest point, the ball doesn't go more high. So its vertical velocity is zero.
  • However, the ball moves horizontal, so its horizontal component of velocity is non - zero i.e. u×cosθ.
  • u= initial velocity, θ= angle of projection

<h3>What's the acceleration of the ball at the highest point of projectile?</h3>
  • During the whole projectile motion, the earth exerts the gravitational force with a acceleration of gravity along vertical direction.
  • But as there's no acceleration along vertical direction, so the acceleration along vertical direction is zero.

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration is zero and velocity is non-zero at the highest point projectile motion.

Disclaimer: The question was given incomplete on the portal. Here is the complete question.

Question: Player kicks a soccer ball in a high arc toward the opponent's goal. At the highest point in its trajectory

A- neither the ball's velocity nor its acceleration are zero.

B- the ball's acceleration points upward.

C- the ball's acceleration is zero but its velocity is not zero.

D- the ball's velocity points downward.
