Answer:

C

Explanation:

  • Momentum of first train is = m * v

                                                    = (5000 kg)·(100 m/s)

                                                    = 500,000 kg·m/s.

  • Momentum after collision is = (5000+M) kg)·(50 m/s)
  • And using conservation of momentum

                          5000+M) kg)·(50 m/s) = 500,000 kg·m/s

         Dividing by 50 m/s and subtracting 5000 kg, we have ...

                                          (5000 +M) kg = 10,000 kg

                                                        M kg = 5000 kg

Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) The magnitude of the applied force is (0.0001524k) Newton

(b) Corresponding stress in the steel core = (0.0001524k/area) Newton per meter square

Explanation:

(a) From Hookes law of elasticity,

Force applied = force constant (k) × compression

compression = 0.006 in = 0.006 × 0.0254 = 0.0001524 meter

Force applied = k × 0.0001524 = (0.0001524k) Newton

(b) Stress = Force applied (Newton)/area of steel core (meter square) = (0.0001524k/area) Newton per meter square

Does anyone understand This question if you do can you tell me the answer
leonid [27]

Answer:

50N increasing

Explanation:

it looks like we want the net force. this is the sum of all forces acting on the object. here the problem is extremely simplified and we are even given the values of force. this looks like the rocket is producing an upward force of 160 newtons. it also looks like maybe weight (gravity) and drag (air resistance) are producing downward force against the rocket. we can say those would be subtracting from the amount of upwards force. so 160-40-70=50N. since the force is positive that means we will still have a magnitude of force vector that points upward and so we will increase.
