<u>Answer:</u>

The final velocity of the two  railroad cars is 1.09 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Since we are given that the two cars lock together it shows that the collision is inelastic in nature. The final velocity due to inelastic collision is given by  

\mathrm{V}=\frac{V 1 M 1+V 2 M 2}{M 1+M 2}

where

V= Final velocity

M1= mass of the first object in kgs = 12000

M2= mas of the second object in kgs = 10000

V1= initial velocity of the first object in m/s = 2m/s

V2= initial velocity of the second object in m/s = 0 (given at rest)

Substituting the given values in the formula we get

V = 2×12000 + 0x100012000 + 10000= 2400022000= 1.09 m/s  

\mathrm{V}=\frac{2 \times 1200+0 \times 1000}{12000+10000}=\frac{24000}{22000}=1.09 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Which is the final velocity of the two  railroad cars

What happens to the work done when a force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same?​
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Work done gets doubled.

Explanation:

The work done by a force is given by :

W = Fd

Where

F is force and d is distance move

If the force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same, it would mean that the work done becomes double of the initial work done.

HEY CAN ANYONE ANSWER DIS RQ!!!!!!
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Density is the mass to volume ratio of an object.

> It tells you how compact the mass is.

> Density = mass/volume

The density of water is 1 g/ml or 1 kg/L or 1000 kg/m3

• If an object has a density less than that of water, it

will float.

• If an object has a density more than that of water, it

will sink

Explanation:

hope this helps some

why can scientists ignore the forces of attraction between particles in a gas under ordinary conditions?

Air conditioners sold in the United States are given a seasonal energy-efficiency ratio (SEER) rating that consumers can use to
amid [387]

Answer:

112.58

Explanation:

The Coefficient of Performance of any system is denoted by COP=Q/W, where Q is the useful heat supplied or removed and W is the work required by the system. According to the first law of thermoddynamics Qh= Qc + W, where Qh is the heat transfered to the hot reservoir and Qc is the heat collected from the cold reservoir. Substituting the values for W and apllying the limitation for maximum theoretical efficiency we end up with the eqution shown below.

The Coefficient of Performance of air conditioner or COP is denoted by

COP(cool) = Tc/(Th- Tc)

where Tc: the lowest temperature

           Th: the highest temperature

converting the values to Kelvin and adding them in the above equation

COP(cool) = (25+273)/((34+273)-(25+273))

                 = 298/(307-298)

                 = 298/9 = 33.11

From the question, it is stated that COP=SEER/3.4

hence, SEER= COP * 3.4

SEER= 33.11 * 3.4 = 112.58
