White raven [17]3 years ago

Answer: My initial velocity is 5 m/s.

Explanation:

In this case, momentum can be conserved.

initial momentum = final momentum

Since both the bodies come to rest after collision,

Final momentum = 0

Let my velocity be v, and mass, m1 = 60 kg

Friend's mass, m2 = 100 kg

Friend's velocity, v2 = 3 m/s

Intial momentum = m1v + m2v2

= 60v + 300

Conserving momentum,

60v + 300 = 0

v= -5 m/s

( Negative sign indicates that me and my friend are moving in opposite directions that is towards each other)

If the frequency of q of a trait is 0.4, what is the frequency of p?
lianna [129]
In genetic traits, p and q represent the relative probabilities of the two alleles manifesting. If these two are the only options (ex. a dominant one and a recessive one), then the probabilities of both must sum up to 1. In this case, since we are given that q = 0.4, then p + q = 1, p + 0.4 = 1, and p = 0.6.

A spring has a natural length of 28.0 cm. If a 23.0-N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 36.0 cm, how much wo
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

0.23 J

Explanation:

k*(36 - 28) = 23

so k = 23/8 N/cm

W = k(32 - 28)²/2 = 23/8 * 4²/2 = 23 N-cm = 0.23 J
