5. An object has a momentum of 4,000 kg-m/s and a mass of 115 kg. It crashes into another object that has a mass of 100 kg, and

the two objects stick together. If the momentum is conserved, what is the new velocity of the combined object? Round to the nearest hundredth.
A. 34.78 m/s
B. 15.82 m/s
C. 69.56 m/s
D. 18.60 m/s​

Answer:

D. 18.60

Explanation:

By the law of conservation, the momentum is neither loss nor gained but instead transfered. When they crash into each other, and stick, they combine to create a total mass of 215 kg. Since the momentum is transfered, the two objects, combined, have a total momentum of 4000 kg-m/s. We know that momentum equals mass times velocity. You then divide 4000 by 215 and get approximately 18.6 m/s

I need help, ASAP, I know what thermal energy is, but how does a skater use it when on the track?
Flauer [41]

Answer: Looked it up but

Explanation:

When the skater lands on the track, the vertical component of his kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy. You can do experiments where there is no loss to thermal energy (only PE and KE conversions) by turning friction off and by making sure the skater doesn't leave the track.

Jessica is running a 10K. She alternates between running and walking each kilometer. She runs at a rate of 1 kilometer every 5 m
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

c.100 minutes

Explanation:

Total distance = 10 km

Runs for 1 km every 5 minutes

walks 1 km every 15 min

She alternates between walking and running  so,  Jessica will walk 5 km and run 5 Km

Time taken by Jessica for walking : 5 km

Time taken to walk 1 km=5 minutes

Time taken to walk 5 km

=> 5 X 5

=>25 minutes

Time taken by Jessica for Running : 5km

Time taken to run 1 km = 15 minutes

 

=> 5 X 15

=>75 minutes

Total time taken   = Time taken by Jessica for walking + Time taken by Jessica for Running

=>25 minutes +75 minutes

=> 100 minutes

A large fake cookie sliding on a horizontal surface isattached to one end of a horizontal spring with spring constantk = 425 N/m
omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

spring constant k = 425 N/m

a ) At the point of equilibrium

restoring force = frictional force

= kx = 10 N

425 x = 10

x = 2.35 cm

b )

Work done by frictional force

= -10 x 2.35 x 10⁻² x 2  J ( Distance is twice of 2.35 cm )

= - 0.47 J

= Kinetic  energy remaining with the cookie  as it slides back through the position where the spring is unstretched .

= 425 - 0.47

= 424.53 J

=
