two people, each with a mass of 70 kg, are wearing inline skates and are holding opposite ends of a 15m rope. One person pulls f

orward on the rope by moving hand over hand and gradually reeling in more of the rope. In doing so, he exerts a force of 35N [backwards] on the rope. This causes him to accelerate toward the other person. Assuming that the friction acting on the skaters is negligible, how long will it take for them to meet? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

7.75 s

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

35 N = (70 kg) a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Given v₀ = 0 m/s and Δx = 15 m:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(15 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.5 m/s²) t²

t = 7.75 s

What change happens when matter<br> changes states?
Snowcat [4.5K]
Matter either loses or absorbs energy when it changes from one state to another. For example, when matter changes from a liquid to a solid, it loses energy. The opposite happens when matter changes from a solid to a liquid. For a solid to change to a liquid, matter must absorb energy from its surroundings.

On a smooth horizontal floor, an object slides into a spring which is attached to another mass that is initially stationary. Whe
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

E) momentum and mechanical energy

Explanation:

In the context, an object is attached to the another mass with a spring which is initially at a rest position. Now when the spring is compressed, the two masses moves with the same speed. Now since the both the masses combines with the spring to move together they are considered as one system and in this case the momentum and the kinetic energy will be conserved.

The kinetic energy and momentum of the system after collision and the kinetic energy and momentum of the two masses before collision will be constant.
