A freight train rolls along a track with considerable momentum. If it were to roll at the same speed but had twice as much mass,
1 answer:
Answer:
The momentum would be doubled
Explanation:
The magnitude of the momentum of the freight train is given by:
where
m is the mass of the train
v is its speed
In this problem, we have that the speed of the train is unchanged, while the mass of the train is doubled:
therefore, the new momentum is
so, the momentum has also doubled.

Let at any instant of time the speed is vo and the angle made by the bike with the horizontal is given
now we have
component of speed in x direction given as
component of speed in y direction will be
now from above two equations we can say that here
= angle with the horizontal at any instant
and since here it is a sine curve so we know that
so we have slope of graph
