Answer:
1185 N
Explanation:
From Newton’s second law of motion,
F=ma where m= mass of motorcycle, a is acceleration of the motorcycle and F=Force
Net force acting on motorcycle is given by
Where F is force acting on motorcycle and f is frictional force
Substituting F-f for
hence ma= F- f Substituting a with 3, m with 245Kg and f with 450N as provided
245*3= F- 450
F=245*3 +450= 1185 N
Answer:
1 * 10^-7 [J]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use dimensional analysis.
1 ergos [erg] is equal to 1 * 10^-7 Joules [J]
Answer:
0.5 mph in the opposite direction
Explanation:
= Mass of Cadillac = 1000 kg
= Velocity of Cadillac = 1 mph
= Mass of Volkswagen = 2000 kg
= Velocity of Volkswagen
In order to know the speed the system must have the momentum exchange
As the linear momentum of the system is conserved
The speed of the impact is given by 0.5 mph in the opposite direction
