A scientific law is the simple mathematical expression of the relationship involved. A principle is the same relationship expressed in words. A theory is the explanation of the facts that make up the relationship.
the normal force is the force applied opposite to the weight
of the was box. So the normal force is equal to the weight of the box = 24 kg
*(9.81 m/s2) = 235.44 N
the acceleration of the box be solve using newtons 2nd
law of motion:
F = ma
a = F/ m = 585 N/ 24 kg = 24.38 m/s2
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the velocity after first collision be v₁ and v₂ of car A and B . car A will bounce back .
velocity of approach = 1.5 - 0 = 1.5
velocity of separation = v₁ + v₂
coefficient of restitution = velocity of separation / velocity of approach
.8 = v₁ + v₂ / 1.5
v₁ + v₂ = 1.2
applying law of conservation of momentum
m x 1.5 + 0 = mv₂ - mv₁
1.5 = v₂ - v₁
adding two equation
2 v ₂= 2.7
v₂ = 1.35 m /s
v₁ = - .15 m / s
During second collision , B will collide with stationary A . Same process will apply in this case also. Let velocity of B and A after collision be v₃ and v₄.
For second collision ,
coefficient of restitution = velocity of separation / velocity of approach
.5 = v₃ + v₄ / 1.35
v₃ + v₄ = .675
applying law of conservation of momentum
m x 1.35 + 0 = mv₄ - mv₃
1.35 = v₄ - v₃
adding two equation
2 v ₄= 2.025
v₄ = 1.0125 m /s
v₃ = - 0 .3375 m / s
The answer is C. elastic potential energy
