Given that

Velocity of missile (v) = 20 m/s ,

Angle of missile (Θ) = 53°

Determine ,   Vertical component  = v sin Θ

                                                        = 20 sin 53°

                                                        = 15.97 m/s

A(n) 1400-kg car going at 6.32 m/s in the positive x direction collides with a 2900-kg truck at rest. The collision is totally i
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

a) Acceleration of the car is given as

a_{car} = -21 m/s^2

b) Acceleration of the truck is given as

a_{truck} = 10.15 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that there is no external force in the direction of motion of truck and car

So here we can say that the momentum of the system before and after collision must be conserved

So here we will have

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

now we have

1400 (6.32) + 2900(0) = (1400 + 2900) v

v = 2.06 m/s

a) For acceleration of car we know that it is rate of change in velocity of car

so we have

a_{car} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a_{car} = \frac{2.06 - 6.32}{0.203}

a_{car} = -21 m/s^2

b) For acceleration of truck we will find the rate of change in velocity of the truck

so we have

a_{truck} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a_{truck} = \frac{2.06 - 0}{0.203}

a_{truck} = 10.15 m/s^2
