Is this an example of an elastic collision or inelastic collision? A 200-kg bumper car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended

by an 1100-kg truck
Inoving at 13 m/s. If the car was in neutral and the brakes were off, the bumper car would BOUNCE OFF of the truck into the intersection.​

Answer:

inelastic collision.

Explanation:

An elastic collision consists in a collision in wich the bodies implied bounce off. Furthermore, the momentum of the bodies is conserved.

In as inelastic collision the momentum is not conserved, and is possible that the bodies implied in the collision stay joint after the collision.

In this case yo have that both bumper car and truck stayed joint after the collision. Hence, this situation is an inelastic collision.

You have a reservoir held at a constant temperature of –30°C. You add 400 J of heat to the reservoir. If you have another reserv
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

449.38 J

Explanation:

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Where ΔS = entropy change

Q = quantity of heat

T = temperature

First reservoir :

T = –30°C = - 30 + 273 = 243K

Q = 400 J

Second reservoir :

T = 0°C = 273K

Q =?

To have same increase in entropy for both reservoirs :

Q/T of first reservoir = Q/T of second reservoir

400/243 = Q/273

243 * Q = 400 * 273

Q = (400 * 273) / 243

Q = 109,200 / 243

Q = 449.38271

Q = 449.38 J

Mariulka [41]

We have centripetal acceleration = v^2/r = 2g

So, v = \sqrt{2gr}

Now by equation of motion we have S= ut +0.5at^2

S =displacement, u = initial velocity, a= acceleration and t = time

Here S =  2r and a = g , u = 0

2r = 0+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{4r}{g} }

Distance traveled in horizontal direction = \sqrt{2gr}*\sqrt{\frac{4r}{g} }= \sqrt{8r^2} =2r\sqrt{2}
