Suppose car A is moving with a velocity Va, and car b with a velocity Vb,
According the principle of conservation of momentum:
Va x Ma + Vb x Mb = (Ma + Mb) V
V = (Va x Ma + Vb x Mb)/(Ma +Mb)
V = speed of cars after coupling
V = (Va x 20 mg + Vb x 15 mg)/(20 mg + 15 mg)
Put in the values of Va and Vb, and get the V
Answer:
Impulse
Explanation:
Impulse is force times time
Answer:
The crate was being lifted by a height of 1.48 meters.
Explanation:
In an attempt o move a crate;
Force applied = 2470 N
Work done by the force = 3650 J
We know that the work done is defined as the force used to move an object to a distance.
Given the Force used and the work done by that Force, we need to find out the distance the crate was lifted to.
Work done is defined as:
Work = Force*distance covered in the direction of the force
3650 = 2470*distance
distance = 3650/2470
distance = 1.48 meters
Answer:
α = 13.7 rad / s²
Explanation:
Let's use Newton's second law for rotational motion
∑ τ = I α
we will assume that the counterclockwise turns are positive
F₁ 0 + F₂ R₂ - F₃ R₃ = I α
give us the cylinder moment of inertia
I = ½ M R₂²
α = (F₂ R₂ - F₃ R₃) 
let's calculate
α = (24 0.22 - 13 0.10)
2/12 0.22²
α = 13.7 rad / s²
Answer:
0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K
Second law is satisfied.
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Rate of heat transfer, Q = 2kW
Temperature of hot reservoir, Th = 800K
Temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 300K
The rate of entropy change is given as:
ΔS = Q * [(1/Tc) - (1/Th)]
ΔS = 2 * (1/300 - 1/800)
ΔS = 2 * 0.002085
ΔS = 0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K
Since ΔS is greater than 0, te the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied.
