Answer: distance = 24 meters

Explanation:

speed = distance / time

distance = speed x time

speed = 160 cm/s = 1.6 m /s [ 100 cm = 1 m, 160 cm = 1.6 m ]

time = 15 s

distance = 1.6 m/s x 15 s = 24 m

A runaway railroad car, with mass 30x10^4 kg, coasts across a level track at 2.0 m/s when it collides with a spring loaded bumpe

Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.775 m

Explanation:

As the car collides with the bumper, all the kinetic energy of the car (K) is converted into elastic potential energy of the bumper (U):

$U=K\\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where we have

$k=2\cdot 10^6 N/m$ is the spring constant of the bumper

x is the maximum compression of the bumper

$m=30\cdot 10^4 kg$ is the mass of the car

$v=2.0 m/s$ is the speed of the car

Solving for x, we find the maximum compression of the spring:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(30\cdot 10^4 kg)(2.0 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 10^6 N/m}}=0.775 m$
