Are momentum and kinetic energy conserved during an inelastic collision?

Energy and momentum are always conserved. Kinetic energy is not conserved in an inelastic collision though. And that is because it is converted to another form of energy

Two car collide in an intersection. The speed limit in that zone is 30 mph. The car (mass of 1250 kg) was going 17.4 m/s (38.9).
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

u₂ = 3.7 m/s

Explanation:

Here, we use the law of conservation of momentum, as follows:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\

where,

m₁ = mass of the car = 1250 kg

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2020 kg

u₁ = initial speed of the car before collision = 17.4 m/s

u₂ = initial speed of the tuck before collision = ?

v₁ = final speed of the car after collision = 6.7 m/s

v₂ = final speed of the truck after collision = 10.3 m/s

Therefore,

(1250\ kg)(17.4\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(u_2)=(1250\ kg)(6.7\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(10.3\ m/s)\\\\(2020\ kg)(u_2) = 8375\ N.s + 20806\ N.s - 21750\ N.s\\\\u_2=\frac{7431\ N.s}{2020\ kg}

<u>u₂ = 3.7 m/s</u>

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projectile be v and angle of throw be θ.

The projectile takes 5 s to touch the ground during which period it falls vertically by 100 m

considering its vertical displacement

h = - ut +1/2 g t²

100 = - vsinθ x 5 + .5 x 9.8 x 5²

5vsinθ =  222.5

vsinθ = 44.5

It covers 160 horizontally in 5 s

vcosθ x 5 = 160

v cosθ = 32

squaring and adding

v²sin²θ +v² cos²θ = 44.4² + 32²

v² = 1971.36 + 1024

v = 54.73 m /s
