A 1200 kg car traveling north at 10 m/s is rear-ended by a 2000 kg truck traveling at 30 m/s. What is the total momentum before

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The total momentum before and after collision is 72000 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of car = 1200 kg

Velocity of car = 10 m/s

Mass of truck = 2000 kg

Velocity of truck = 30 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

The total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after collision.

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})V$

Where, $m_{1}$ =mass of car

$v_{1}$ =velocity of car

$m_{1}$ =mass of truck

$v_{1}$ =velocity of truck

Put the value into the formula

$1200\times10+2000\times30=(1200+2000)V$

$V=\dfrac{1200\times10+2000\times30}{(1200+2000)}$

$V = 22.5\ m/s$

Now, The total momentum before collision is

$P=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}$

$P=1200\times10+2000\times30$

$P=72000\ kg-m/s$

The total momentum after collision is

$P=(m_{1}+m_{2})v_{2}$

$P=(1200+2000)\times22.5$

$P= 72000 kg-m/s$

Hence, The total momentum before and after collision is 72000 kg-m/s.

Ice wedging is brought about by ____.

grigory [225]

<span>Ice wedging is caused by water freezing and thawing. During this process of conversion of the water into ice the water is expanded and crack in the ground is formed. These cracks are formed duing the winter, when the water freezes, expands and the enlarges the cracks. In summer, when the ice melts more water is accumulated in the cracks and the process repeats.</span>

Using that transfers and third laws explain what happened when you dribble a basketball

Leno4ka [110]

The ball is using an reaction and opposite reaction, so when you dribble a basketball you push the ball with downward force and the ground pushes the ball back up thus making the opposite reaction.

A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 3.00 blocks west, 4.00 blocks north, and then 6.00 blocks east. What

Harrizon [31]

The concepts used to solve this problem are those related to the Pythagorean theorem for which we will calculate the distance and the pitch.

According to the attached diagram we have that the expression of the resulting displacement is

$R = \sqrt{(3b)^2+(4b)^2}$
