The answer to this question about solid particles would be B. Yes, they vibrate about a fixed point.
It is important to remember that the basic difference of the 3 states of matter is how their molecules are arranged. Gas molecules are situated far from each other which gives the molecules space to freely move around giving the gas its characteristics. Liquid molecules, on the other hand, are situated near to each other, where there is still space that let's them move but not as free as gas molecules. Solid molecules are very close to each other that the phrase tightly packed is but an understatement. This is also a reason that when solid particles vibrate, usually when heated, it is only about a fixed point.
Answer:
Whats the question/word problem or where is the graph (if included) representing this problem?
Answer:
Final velocity = 7.677 m/s
KE before crash = 202300 J
KE after crash = 182,702.62 J
Explanation:
We are given;
m1 = 1400 kg
m2 = 4700 kg
u1 = 17 m/s
u2 = 0 m/s
Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;
m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v
Where v is final velocity after collision.
Plugging in the relevant values;
(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v
23800 = 3100v
v = 23800/3100
v = 7.677 m/s
Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J
Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J
Answer:
566.3 m
Explanation:
The distance travelled by the object can be found by using the SUVAT equation:
where
u is the initial velocity
t is the time
a is the acceleration
For the object in this problem:
u = 19 m/s
a = 2.5 m/s^2
Substituting t = 15 s, we find the distance travelled:
90000m/3600s = 25 m/s
a=0-25/10 ⇒ a = - 5/2 m/s^2
