To solve this problem, we must remember about the law of
conservation of momentum. The initial momentum mist be equal to the final
momentum, that is:
m1 v1 + m2 v2 = (m1 + m2) v’
where v’ is the speed of impact
Since we are not given the masses of each car m1 and m2,
so let us assume that they are equal, such that:
m1 = m2 = m
Which makes the equation:
m v1 + m v2 = (2 m) v’
Cancelling m and substituting the v values:
50 + 48 = 2 v’
2 v’ = 98
v ‘ = 49 km/h

Answer:
0.8712 m/s²
Explanation:
We are given;
Velocity of first car; v1 = 33 m/s
Distance; d = 2.5 km = 2500 m
Acceleration of first car; a1 = 0 m/s² (constant acceleration)
Velocity of second car; v2 = 0 m/s (since the second car starts from rest)
From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;
d = ut + ½at²
Thus,for first car, we have;
d = v1•t + ½(a1)t²
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
d = 33t + 0
d = 33t
For second car, we have;
d = v2•t + ½(a2)•t²
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
d = 0 + ½(a2)t²
d = ½(a2)t²
Since they meet at the next exit, then;
33t = ½(a2)t²
simplifying to get;
33 = ½(a2)t
Now, we also know that;
t = distance/speed = d/v1 = 2500/33
Thus;
33 = ½ × (a2) × (2500/33)
Rearranging, we have;
a2 = (33 × 33 × 2)/2500
a2 = 0.8712 m/s²
Hello,
I believe they are a lever and a wedge.
I hope this helps!
The distance from Buzău to Iaşi is 72 km. Find out the time a vehicle travels this distance if it has a speed of 72 km per hour. Expresses the speed in the unit of measurement in SI. I give the crown! Thank you
Answer:
3600seconds
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Distance = 72km
Speed = 72km/hr
Unknown:
Time it takes for the vehicle to travel the distance = ?
Solution:
Speed is the distance divided by time;
Speed = 
time =
Insert the parameters;
time =
= 1hr
The SI unit of time is in seconds;
3600 seconds is 1hr
The time is 3600seconds
