A 1050 kg sports car is moving westbound at 13.0 m/s on a level road when it collides with a 6320 kg truck driving east on the s

ame road at 14.0 m/s . The two vehicles remain locked together after the collision.
a. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the two vehicles just after the collision?
b. At what speed should the truck have been moving so that both it and the car are stopped in the collision?
c. Find the change in kinetic energy of the system of two vehicles for the situations of part (a) and part (b). For which situation is the change in kinetic energy greater in magnitude?

Answer:

(A) V = 9.89m/s

(B) U = -2.50m/s

(C) ΔK.E = –377047J

(D) ΔK.E = –257750J

Explanation:

The full solution can be found in the attachment below. The east has been chosen as the direction for positivity.

This problem involves the principle of momentum conservation. This principle states that the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision. This problem is an inelastic kind of collision for which the momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not. The kinetic energy after collision is always lesser than that before collision. The balance is converted into heat by friction, and also sound energy.

See attachment below for full solution.

Un atleta de 70 kg de masa que ha efectuado un salto de altura cae una vez que ha
Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

Explanation:

The forces on the athlete are

a) at this moment the athlete presses the garrolla against the floor, therefore it acquires a lot of elastic energy, which is absorbed by the athlete to rise and gain potential energy,

therefore the forces are the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

b) when it falls, in this case the only force to act is batrachium by the planet, this is a projectile movement for very high angles

c) When it reaches the floor, it receives an impulse that opposes the movement created by the mat. The attractive force is the attraction of gravity.

A raft with the area A , thickness= h and the mass 600 kg, Floats in still water with 7 cm
elena55 [62]

<span>In this problem, we need to solve for Bubba’s mass. To do this, we let A be the area of the raft and set the weight of the displaced fluid with the raft alone as ρwAd1g and ρwAd2g with the person on the raft, </span>where ρw is the density of water, d1 = 7cm, and d2= 8.4 cm. Set the weight of displaced fluid equal to the weight of the floating objects to eliminate A and ρw then solve for m.

<span>ρwAd1g = Mg</span>

ρw<span>Ad2g = (M + m) g</span>

<span>d2∕d1 = (M + m)/g</span>

m = [(d2<span>∕d1)-1] M = [(8.4 cm/7.0 cm) - 1] (600 kg) =120 kg</span>

This means that Bubba’s mass is 120 kg.

A piece of tape is pulled from a spool and lowered toward a 120-mg scrap of paper. Only when the tape comes within 8.0 mm is the
Anton [14]

Answer:

1.176\times 10^{-3} N

Upward

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of scarp paper,m=120 mg=120\times 10^{-6}kg

1mg=10^{-6} mkg

Distance,d =8 mm=8\times 10^{-3} m

Magnitude of electric force =F_E= w=mg

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

F_E=120\times 10^{-6}\times 9.8

F_E=1.176\times 10^{-3} N

Gravitational force act in  downward direction.

The electric force acts in opposite direction and magnitude of electric force is equal to gravitational force.

Hence, the direction of electric force is upward.
