two vehicles have a head on collision. one vehicle has a mass of 3000 kg and moves at 25 m/s while the second vehicle has a mass

of 2500 kg and moves at -15 m/s. if the vehicles stick together after the collision what is the speed of the combined vehicles

Answer:

The speed of the combined vehicles is 6.82m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which stayed that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to their sum of momentum after collision. After collision, both object moves with the same velocity.

Momentum = mass×velocity

Before collision:

Momentum of vehicle or mass 3000kg moving with velocity 25m/s

= 3000×25

= 75000kgm/s

Pa = 75000kgm/s

Momentum of vehicle with mass 2500kg moving with velocity of -15m/s

= 2500×-15

= -37500kgm/s

After collision:

Momentum = (3000+2500)V

Where v is their common velocity

Momentum after collision = 5500V

Based on the law:

75000+(-37500) = 5500V

75000-37500 = 5500V

37500 = 5500V

V = 37500/5500

V = 6.82m/s

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

I = (1.80 × 10⁻¹⁰) A

Explanation:

From Biot Savart's law, the magnetic field formula is given as

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = magnetic field = (1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵) T

μ₀ = magnetic constant = (4π × 10⁻⁷) H/m

r = 3.6 cm = 0.036 m

(1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵) = (4π × 10⁻⁷ × I)/(2π × 0.036)

4π × 10⁻⁷ × I = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵ × 2π × 0.036

I = (1.80 × 10⁻¹⁰) A

Hope this Helps!!!

List the parts of the electromagnetic spectrum from longest wavelength to shortest wavelength
Lilit [14]
The rays of the electromagnetic spectrum from shortest to longest wavelength are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, optical rays, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma-rays.

EDIT: He has these backwards, the shortest wavelength is created by Gamma-Rays and the longest is Radiowaves.

<span> Remember- high energy = short wavelength. </span>

What happens to balloon filled with air when it goes very high attitude from surface of earth why​
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The balloon will continue to expand and eventually burst.

Explanation:

Simply, the reason for this is because the density of the atmosphere decreases gradually as you increase in altitude closer to space. This means that the air on the outside of the balloon can't provide enough pressure over the surface of the balloon in order to counteract the gas on the inside of the balloon from expanding.
