Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the truck, m = 2000 kg

Initial velocity of the truck, u = 34 km/h = 9.44 m/s

Final velocity of the truck, v = 58 km/h = 16.11 m/s

(a) Change in truck's kinetic energy, \Delta E=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

\Delta E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2000\ kg\times (16.11^2-9.44^2)

\Delta E=170418.5\ J

\Delta E=1.7\times 10^5\ J

(b) Change in momentum of the truck, \Delta p=m(v-u)

\Delta p=2000\ kg\times (16.11-9.44)

\Delta p=13340\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Id say this is more of a biology question or even a psychology question  , well its not a question at all but the endocrine system is a collection of glands that secrete hormones direct to the blood system (circulatory system) to be sent to the desired / target organ , an example of a gland could be the pituitary gland (located towards rear of brain)

A baseball is hit with a bat. The direction of the ball is completely reversed and its speed is doubled. If the actual contact w
alexdok [17]
Before the impact, let the velocity of the baseball was v m/s.

After being hit by the bat its velocity is -2v
So, change in velocity, Deltav=v-(-2v)=3v
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity, i.e. actual change in velocity divided by the time taken to change it. Time taken to change velocity is the time of actual contact of the bat and ball, i.e. 0.31 s.

a=(Deltav)/(Deltat)
=(3v)/0.37
Therefore, a/v=3/0.31=9.7 s^-1
So, the ratio of acceleration of the baseball to its original velocity is 9.7.

The term 'DENSITY' tells us…
pogonyaev

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

Density basically shows the amount of mass per volume of something. You can easily find Density with the equation D=m/v

D= Density

m= mass

v= volume
