Answer:

3.7 m/s

Explanation:

M = 444 kg

U = 5 m/s

m = 344 kg

u = - 5 m/s

Let the velocity of train is V and the car s v after the collision.

As the collision is elastic

By use of conservation of momentum

MU + mu = MV + mv

444 x 5 - 344 x 5 = 444 V + 344 v

500 = 444 V + 344 v

125 = 111 V + 86 v .... (1)

By using the formula of coefficient of restitution ( e = 1 for elastic collision)

e = \frac{V-v}{u-U}

-5 - 5 = V - v

V - v = - 10

v = V + 10

Substitute the value of v in equation (1)

125 = 111 V + 86 (V + 10)

125 = 197 V + 860

197 V = - 735

V = - 3.7 m/s

Thus, the speed of first car after collision is 3.7 m/s. negative sign shows that the direction is reverse as before the collision.

At baseball practice, Mason and Alfredo both picked up the same bat and neither would let go until one of them had it for himsel
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Option B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction

Explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:

Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N

Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = 20 – 15

Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction

From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.

A pressure sensor inside of a mixing tank is designed to turn red when the pressure inside the tank exceeds 1.9 kPa. If the sens
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

19 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Pressure (P) = 1.9 kPa

Length (L) = 10 cm

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall convert 1.9 KPa to N/m². This can be obtained as follow:

1 KPa = 1000 N/m²

Therefore,

1.9 KPa = 1.9 KPa × 1000 N/m² / 1 KPa

1.9 KPa = 1900 N/m²

Thus, 1.9 KPa is equivalent to 1900 N/m².

Next, we shall convert 10 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

10 cm = 10 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

10 cm = 0.1 m

Thus, 10 cm is equivalent to 0.1 m

Next, we shall determine the area of the square. This can be obtained as follow:

Length (L) = 0.1 m

Area of square (A) =?

A = L²

A = 0.1²

A = 0.01 m²

Thus, the area of the square is 0.01 m².

Finally, we shall determine the force that must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red. This can be obtained as follow:

Pressure (P) = 1900 N/m²

Area (A) = 0.01 m²

Force (F) =?

P = F/A

1900 = F / 0.01

Cross multiply

F = 1900 × 0.01

F = 19 N

Therefore, a force of 19 N must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red.

For states with larger values of n that admit a d subshell, the d subshell is at even higher energy than the p subshell. In fact
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Correct order of energy of energy states within an atom is as follows

1s , 2 s, 2 p 3 s ,3 p, 4s , 3d,  4p, 4p,5s etc.

There is discrepancies in this order due to overlapping of outer orbitals with inner orbitals so sometimes outer orbitals have lower energy.
