A 2290 kg car traveling at 10.5 m/s collides with a 2780 kg car that is initially at rest at the stoplight. The cars stick toget

her and move 2.80 m before friction causes them to stop. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction

Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg

initial speed = 10.5 m/s

mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg

distance moved = 2.80 m

coefficient of friction = ?

conservation of energy

m u = (M + m) V

2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V

V = 4.74 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8

a = 4.02 m/s²

now using equation

a = μ g

4.02 = μ x 9.8

μ = 0.41

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

A student who was training for a cross country race jogged for 2. 0 hours and covered a distance of 14. 0 kilometers. What was t
FinnZ [79.3K]

The average speed is 116.66m/s.

Given - The path traced is 14km , time for jogging is 2 hrs=120min

To find the average speed-

  1. Speed refers to the ease of the movement and degree of mobility as a result of force application.
  2. Due to this there is involvement of velocity.
  3. Journey of average speed is the cumulative of distances and time.
  4. Kinetic theory refers to the Boltzmann constant connecting to the standards of distance traversed.

calculations-

Speed= \frac{Distance}{Time}

Speed= 14 000 / 120

= 116.66m/s

To learn more about average speed -

what has more momentum, a baseball traveling at 4 m/s or a baseball traveling at 16m/s ? and which has more energy ?
Anna007 [38]
We know the formulas for momentum and energy. But they both involve the mass of
the object, and we don't know the mass of the baseball.  What can we do ?

It's not a catastrophe.  The question only asks which one is bigger.  If we're clever,
we can answer that without ever knowing how much the momentum or the energy
actually is.  We know that both baseballs have the same mass, so let's just call it
' M ' and not worry about what it really is.

<u>Momentum of anything = (mass) x (speed)</u>
Momentum of the first baseball = (M) x (4 m/s) = 4M
Momentum of the second one = (M) x (16 m/s) = 16M
The second baseball has 4 times as much momentum as the first one has.

<u>Kinetic energy of anything = 1/2 (mass) x (speed squared)</u>
KE of the first baseball = 1/2 (M) x (4 squared) = 8M
KE of the second one = 1/2 (M) x (16 squared) = 128M
The second baseball has 16 times as much kinetic energy as the first one has.
