Police are investigating an accident. They know that Tom Brady was driving 20 m/s before being hit by Jay Z head on. Tom Brady’s

car has a mass of 1100 kg and Jay Z’s has a mass of 1475 kg. They also know that the two cars stuck together and were traveling 7 m/s in the same direction as Jay Z was driving. The speed limit was 25 m/s, was Jay Z speeding?

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

The cars stick together after the collision, so they have the same final velocity.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v + m₂v

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v

Plug in values and solve (take Jay Z's direction to be positive):

(1100) (-20) + (1475) u₂ = (1100 + 1475) (7)

u₂ = 27.1 m/s

Yes, Jay Z was speeding.

Si un cuerpo adquiere una carga de -0,02 C, ha ganado o ha perdido electrones? Cuantos?
sammy [17]

Question :

If a body acquires a charge of -0.02 C, has it gained or lost electrons? Many?

Solution :

We know, charge gained is shown by negative sign.

Since, charged acquired is given as -0.02 C .

Therefore, it is body has gained electrons.

Now, number of electrons is given by :

n = \dfrac{net\ charge}{charge \  on \ one \  electron}\\\\n = \dfrac{-0.02}{-1.60 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\n = 1.25\times 10^{17}

Hence, this is the required solution.

The flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular speed of 113 $rev/min$. When steam is shut off, the friction of the
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

α = - 1.883 rev/min²

Explanation:

Given

ωin = 113 rev/min

ωfin = 0 rev/min

t = 1.0 h = 60 min

α = ?

we can use the following equation

ωfin = ωin + α*t      ⇒     α = (ωfin - ωin) / t

⇒     α = (0 rev/min - 113 rev/min) / (60 min)

⇒     α = - 1.883 rev/min²
