6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.    

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of I cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

initial velocity of I cart, u = 0.31 m/s

mass of II cart, m' = 500 g =0.5 kg

initial velocity of II cart, u' = - 0.22 m/s

Total momentum before collision = m x u + m' x u'

                                                        = 0.25 x 0.31 - 0.5 x 0.22

                                                        = 0.0775 - 0.11

                                                        = - 0.0325 kg m/s

What are the importance of wedge? <br>​
FromTheMoon [43]

A wedge is a machine and it is used for separating bodies.

<h3 /><h3>The Wedge as a Machine</h3>

The wedge is a combination of two inclined planes. When the wedge is driven into a body by an effort force, a much larger force will be exerted to each side by the wedge surfaces.

What are the importance of wedge?

A wedge is used to separate bodies which are held together by large forces example of this scenario is splitting of timber. A wedge is a machine and the example of wedge - type of machine are;

  • Axes
  • Chisel
  • Knives
  • Cutting tools

Note that a thin wedge has a higher mechanical advantage than a short thick one.

Therefore, a wedge is a machine and it is used for separating bodies.

The speed limit on some interstate highways is roughly 80 km/h. What is this in meters per second? How many miles per hour is th
sergey [27]

Answer:

1) Speed in m/s equals 22.22 m/s.

2) Speed in miles per hour equals 49.712 mph.

Explanation:

Since we know that in 1 kilometer there are 1000 meters and in 1 hour there are 3600 seconds hence we can write

80km/h=\frac{80\times 1000m}{3600s}=22.22m/s

Now we know that 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometer  hence we conclude that 1 kilometer equals \frac{1}{1.609}=0.6214mile

Hence

80km/h=\frac{80\times 0.6214miles}{1h}=49.712mph

A ball is thrown straight up at 20 m. What is the balls velocity as it hits the ground?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Velocity: Velocity of a body can be defined as the rate of change of displacement of the body. The S.I unit of velocity is m/s. velocity is expressed in one of newtons equation of motion, and is given below.

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = the final velocity of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = the height of the ball

<em>Given: s = 20 m, u = 0 m/s</em>

<em>Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>v² = 0 + 2×9.8×20</em>

<em>v² = 392</em>

<em>v = √392</em>

<em>v = 19.799 m/s.</em>

<em>Therefore the velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>
