Answer:
24.084 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum
Total momentum before collision equals to the total momentum after collision
Since momentum=mv where m is mass and v is velocity
where 
is the mass of the truck, 
is velocity of the truck, 
is the common velocity of moving and standing truck after collision and 
is the mass of the standing truck
Making the subject we obtain
Substituting as 25000 Kg, as 22.3 m/s, as 2000 Kg we obtain
Therefore, assuming no friction and considering that after collision they still move eastwards hence common velocity and initial truck velocities are positive
The truck was moving at 24.084 m/s
Answer:
Earth attract the Moon with a force that is greater.
Explanation:
According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Mathematically, F1 = Gm1m2/r²... 1
Let m1 be the mass of the earth and m2 be that of the moon
If the Earth is much more massive than is the Moon, the new force of attraction between them will become;
F2= G(2m1)m2/r²
F2 = 2Gm1m2/r² ... (2)
Dividing eqn 1 by 2 we have;
F1/F2 = (Gm1m2/r²)÷(2Gm1m2/r²)
F1/F2 = Gm1m2/r²×r²/2Gm1m2
F1/F2 = 1/2
F2=2F1
This shows that that the earth will attract the moon by a force 2times the initial force of the masses(i.e a much greater force)
Answer:
we need to see the answers but probably 1 or -1
Answer:
875 N
Explanation:
From this question, you didn't state the time taken for the bumper car to move or to hit the other bumper car. In calculations of force, time is often needed, because
Force = mass * acceleration, while
Acceleration = velocity / time, basically
Force = mass * velocity / time.
We have our mass, we have our velocity, but we haven't time. So, for this calculation, I'd assume our time to be 1s.
Going by the formula I stated, we can then say that
Force = 250 * 3.5 / 1
Force = 875 N
This means the force my bumper car have while moving at 3.5 m/s for an estimated time of 1s is 875 N
Answer:
F = W + ma a> 0
Explanation:
For this exercise let's use Newton's second law
we assume the upward direction as positive
F - W = m a
F = W + ma
F = m (g + a)
In this case they indicate that the speed is less and less as it goes down, therefore the acceleration must be opposite to the speed, that is, the acceleration is upwards, consequently it is positive
We can see that since a> 0 the force F must have greater than the weight of the elevator
