Is air made of matter ?evidence and reasoning.

Yes, air is matter because it is a gas composed mostly of nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, and gases do have mass because they’re molecules bouncing around a contained volume (here, the atmosphere)

A car of mass 1000 kg is moving at 25 m/s. It collides with a car of mass 1200 kg moving at 30 m/s. When the cars collide, they

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The total momentum of the cars before the collision is 61,000 kg.m/s

The total momentum of the cars after the collision is 61,000 kg.m/s

The velocity of the cars after the collision is 27.727 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first car, m₁ = 1000 kg

initial velocity of the car, u₁ = 25 m/s

mass of the second car, m₂ = 1200 kg

initial velocity of the second car, u₂ = 30 m/s

The common velocity of the cars after collision = v

The total momentum of the cars before collision is calculated as;

P₁ = m₁u₁ + m₂u₂

P₁ = (1000 x 25) + (1200 x 30)

P₁ = 61,000 kg.m/s

The total momentum of the cars after collision is calculated as;

P₂ = m₁v + m₂v

where;

v is the common velocities of the cars after collision since they stick together.

P₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

To determine "v" apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

(1000 x 25) + (1200 x 30) = v(1000 + 1200)

61,000 = 2,200v

v = 61,000/2,200

v = 27.727 m/s

The total momentum after collsion = v(m₁ + m₂)

= 27.727(1000 + 1200)

= 61,000 kg.m/s

Thus, momentum before and after collsion are equal.

Describe Kinetic Energy.

mina [271]

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

A 73.0 kg firefighter climbs a flight of stairs 9.0 m high. how much work is required? j

pshichka [43]

The strength of the fireman in vertical direction will be given by F = m * g. Then, the work done will be given by definition by W = F * d. Substituting the expression of the Force in that of the work, we have that the work will be W = m * g * d. Substituting the given values and assuming that g = 10m / s ^ 2, we have a total work of W = (73) * (10) * (9) = 6570 J
