A 1400 kg car traveling at 17.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4700 kg truck that is at rest. The car and truck stick together
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Final velocity = 7.677 m/s

KE before crash = 202300 J

KE after crash = 182,702.62 J

Explanation:

We are given;

m1 = 1400 kg

m2 = 4700 kg

u1 = 17 m/s

u2 = 0 m/s

Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;

m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v

Where v is final velocity after collision.

Plugging in the relevant values;

(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v

23800 = 3100v

v = 23800/3100

v = 7.677 m/s

Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J

Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J

A 2.30-kg cylindrical rod of length 2.00 m is suspended from a horizontal bar so it is free to swing about that end. a solid sph
Marina86 [1]

Solution:


initial sphere mvr = final sphere mvr + Iω 
where I = mL²/3 = 2.3g * (2m)² / 3 = 3.07 kg·m² 
0.25kg * (12.5 + 9.5)m/s * (4/5)2m = 3.07 kg·m² * ω 
where: ω = 2.87 rad/s 

So for the rod, initial E = KE = ½Iω² = ½ * 3.07kg·m² * (2.87rad/s)² 
E = 12.64 J becomes PE = mgh, so 
12.64 J = 2.3 kg * 9.8m/s² * h 
h = 0.29 m 

h = L(1 - cosΘ) → where here L is the distance to the CM 
0.03m = 1m(1 - cosΘ) = 1m - 1m*cosΘ 
Θ = arccos((1-0.29)/1) = 44.77 º

The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes
tester [92]

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

or

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

or

Work done by brake  = 1000 × 10 × 100

or

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J

If a 2 cm vector represents speed, and 1 cm equals 5 m/s, how fast is the represented
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 10m/s

Explanation: Since a single vector with length of 1cm expresses 5m/s, the vector which has a length doubled from the original vector should have the speed which is also doubled.
