A 30 ton rail car and a 90 ton rail car, initially at rest,are connected together with a giant but massless compressed springbet

ween them. When released, the 30 ton car is pushed away at aspeed of 4.0 m/s relative to the 90 ton car. What is the speed ofthe 30 ton car relative to the ground?

Answer:

V2 = 1.33m/s

Explanation:

M1 = 30 ton

M2 = 90 ton

V1 = 4 m/s

V2 = ?

Assumption: momentum conserved, no friction

initial momentum = final momentum = 0  

momentum : p = MV

(M1*V1) - (M2*V2) = 0

V2 = (30*4)/90 = 1.33m/s

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: The correct answer is A.

Explanation: In a solution, the substance which is in larger proportion is called as a solvent and the substance which is in smaller proportion is called as a solute.

When we mix a powdered Gatorade in the water, the Gatorade is present smaller proportion and hence will be considered as a solute in a solution and water is present in larger proportion and will be considered as solvent in a solution.

Hence, the correct option is A.

A car manufacturer wants to change its car’s design to increase the car’s acceleration. Which changes should the engineers consi
likoan [24]

Answer:

The car manufacturers could increase bore of the cylinders, place the engine in the center or back of the car, add 1 to 2 turbochargers, and lower the center of gravity of the vehicle to increase traction.

Explanation:

Turbochargers would be recommended because they significantly increase both the torque of the engine as well as the amount of horses powering the car while also increasing original efficiency both with and without the additional power. Weight adjustment allows for lightweight vehicles with good traction. This is important to both keep control of the car under acceleration, but it also makes the vehicle more efficient due to the now sheddable unnecessary weight. A more obvious approach would be to increase the base horsepower and torque of the engine by increasing the bore of the cylinders and the weight of the pistons. This acts as an inertial lever, because the extra piston weight will drag the crankshaft faster. This could also be achieved by taking away piston weight, but this could be catastrophic should a piston slip.
