In elastic collisions,total kinetic energy and momentum are both conserved. On a frictionless track,cart 1 is moving with a cons

tant,rightward(+) velocity of 1.0m/s.Cart 2 is also moving rightward with constant velocity of 5.0m/s. After a while,cart 2 collides cart 1 from behind.(It is an elactic collision.)If the final velocity of cart 2 becomes 3.0m/s, what is the final velocity of cart 1?(SHOW ALL YOUR WORK.)

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of cart 1, m1 = m

mass of cart 2, m2 = m

initial velocity of cart 1, u1 = 1 m/s

initial velocity of cart 2, u2 = 5 m/s

final velocity of cart 2, v2 = 3 m/s  

Let the final velocity of cart 1 is v1.

Use the conservation of momentum

m1 x u1 + m2 x u2 = m1 x v1 + m2 x v2

m x 1 + m x 5 = m x v1 + m x 3

6 = v1 + 3

v1 = 3 m/s

If the conductivity of the solution is NOT affected by increasing the solute concentration, what does that indicate about both t
Alexeev081 [22]

<u><em>Both solvent and solute are parts of a solution.</em></u> Solutions are mixtures of two or more substances, and the substance that dissolves into the solution is a solute. Meanwhile, the solute dissolves into a s Meanwhile, the solute dissolves into a substance called the solvent.

Solutes and solvents are substances not used only in chemical laboratories, but they are part of the day to day life. A solution contains only two components, which are solute and solvent. Solvent has the capability of dissolving the solute in a homogenous solution.

What is the predicted result when two different materials of equal mass absorb the same amount of energy by heat flow?
Ludmilka [50]

The correct is D.

Explanation: The specific heat is defined as heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass by one degree. Greater the specific heat, more is the heat required to raise the temperature for equal mass. So, the temperature of the material with lowest specific heat will increase the most for the same amount of heat energy.
