Answer:
W = 285.62 N
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of Jessica is 55 kg
Slope of the hill is 32 degrees
We need to find the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion.
The component along her direction of motion is shown in attached figure. It means
So, the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion is 285.62 N.
Answer:
3.75 m/s south
Explanation:
Momentum before collision = momentum after collision
m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂
Since the car and truck stick together, v₁ = v₂.
m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v
Given m₁ = 1500 kg, u₁ = -15 m/s, m₂ = 4500 kg, and u₂ = 0 m/s:
(1500 kg) (-15 m/s) + (4500 kg) (0 m/s) = (1500 kg + 4500 kg) v
-22500 kg m/s = 6000 kg v
v = -3.75 m/s
The final velocity is 3.75 m/s to the south.
Answer:
19.2 m/s
Explanation:
The train is moving at 18 m/s and you are walking in the same direction (east) so the speeds are added
18 + 1.2 = 19.2
If you were walking backwards (west) your velocity with respect to the ground would be
18 - 1.2 = 16.8
