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

A child sits 1.6 m from the center of a merry go round that makes one complete revolution in 4.7 s. What is his angular accelera
olga2289 [7]

Answer: angular acceleration = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

Given:

Distance from center of axis = 1.6 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.7 sec

Therefore, we can evaluate the angular acceleration using the following formula:

\alpha = r\times \omega^{2}

\alpha = r\times (\frac{2\pi}{T})^{2}

\alpha = 1.6\times (\frac{2\times3.14}{4.7})^{2}

\alpha = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

What is mass times acceleration?
frozen [14]

Answer:

Force

Explanation:

The mass of an object is the quantity of matter it contains. It is measured in kilograms.

Acceleration is the ratio of the change in the velocity of an object to the change in time. It is measured in m/s^{2}.

When the mass of an object is multiplied with its acceleration, this gives the average force applied on the object. As force is defined as agent that can change the state of an object.

i.e     F = m × a

where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.

The two major classes of force are; contact force and field force.
