The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum
is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final
momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:
mA vA + mB vB = m v
where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s
since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the
equation as:
mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v
furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0,
hence
mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v
1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)
<span>vA = 13.02 m/s</span>
D. Volume will increase
Volume and temperature are directly proportional for a gas.
Yes I'm pretty sure you can
Answer:
f = 878,080 N
Explanation:
mass of pile driver (m) = 2100 kg
distance of pile driver to steel beam (s) = 5 m
depth of steel driven (d) = 12 cm = 0.12 m
acceleration due to gravity (g0 = 9.8 m/s^{2}
calculate the average force exerted on the pile driver by the beam.
- from work done = force x distance
- work done = change in potential energy of the pile driver
- equating the two equations above we have
force x distance = m x g x (s - d)
f x 0.12 = 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12))
d = - 0.12 because the steel beam went down at we are taking its
initial position to be an origin point which is 0
f = ( 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12)) ) ÷ 0.12
f = 878,080 N
The answer is B (The second one). I'm not sure though.
