Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with speed 13.0 m/s toward the east, and the ot

her is traveling north with speed v2i. Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick together, leaving parallel skid marks at an angle of 55.08 north of east. The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h, and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the speed limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply law of conservation of momentum to know the Speed of northward moving vehicle before collision to check the veracity of driver's statement .

Let v be the velocity of composite mass after collision

Applying law of conservation of momentum in north direction

m v₂ = 2m v sin55.08

Applying law of conservation of momentum in east  direction

m x 13 = 2m v cos55.08

Dividing these two equations

v₂ / 13 = tan55.08

v₂ = 13  tan55.08

= 18.62 m/s

= (18.62 x60 x 60) / 1000

= 67 km/h

= 67 x 5/8 mi/h

= 42 mi/h

So he is lieing.

A substance sample has a Mass of 45.0 g, and the Data Safety
marishachu [46]

The volume of the sample is 48.39 cm³.

<h3 /><h3>What is volume?</h3>

The term volume refers to the amount of three-dimensional space taken up by an item or a closed surface

To calculate the volume of the sample, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • D = m/v
  • v = m/D................ Equation 1

Where:

  • m = Mass of the smaple
  • D = Density of the sample
  • v = Volume of the sample.

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 45 g
  • D = 0.93 g/cm³

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • v = 45/0.93
  • v = 48.39 cm³

Hence, the volume of the sample is 48.39 cm³.

The value of the normal force exerted on a 2,000 gram block on a table
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

N = 19.6 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a block, m = 2000 g

1 kg = 1000 g

It means, 2000 g = 2kg

We need to find the value of normal force on the block on a table. Normal force is balanced by the weight of the block as follows :

N = mg, g is acceleration due to gravity

N = 2 kg × 9.8 m/s²

N = 19.6 N

So, the normal force acting on the block is 19.6 N.

a uniform rule balance on a knife edge at the 55cm mark when a mass of 40g is hung from the 95cm mark. find the weight of the ru
BigorU [14]

Answer:

W = 3.1 N

Explanation:

moments about any convenient point will sum to zero.

I choose summing about the knife edge mark and will assume the ruler of weight W is of uniform construction.

I will assume the ruler weight makes a positive moment

W[55 - 50) - 0.040(9.8)[ 95 - 55] = 0

                                                5W = 15.68

                                                   W = 3.136
