An open train car, with a mass of 2130 kg, coasts along a horizontal track at the speed 2.93 m/s. The car passes under a loading

chute and, as it does so, gravel falls vertically into it for 3.03 s at the rate of 465 kg/s. What is the car's speed v f after the loading is completed

Answer:

The final speed after the loading is completed is 1.764 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of open train car, m₁ = 2130 kg

initial speed of the car, u₁ = 2.93 m/s

loading rate of gravel = 465 kg/s

time of loading = 3.03 s

mass of the gravel, m₂ = 465 kg/s x 3.03 s = 1408.95 kg

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁+m₂)

where;

v is the final speed after the loading is completed

2130 x 2.93 + 0 = v (2130 + 1408.95)

6240.9 = v (3538.95)

v = 6240.9/3538.95

v = 1.764 m/s

Therefore, the final speed after the loading is completed is 1.764 m/s

From a vantage point very close to the track at a stock car race, you hear the sound emitted by a moving car. You detect a frequ
V125BC [204]

Answer:

55.8 m/s

Explanation:

f = Actual frequency of sound emitted by car

f' = frequency observed when the car moves = (0.86)f

V = Speed of sound = 343 m/s

v = Speed of car

Frequency observed is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V+v}

(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\294.98 + (0.86) v = 343 \\v = 55.8 ms^{-1}

What does the person in back of the ambulance experience? A) a lower frequency of the siren B) a lower amplitude of the siren C)
hoa [83]

The answer to your question is "A. a lower frequency of the siren.

Because the person in back of the ambulance will hear a lower frequency of the siren. This is because the waves are stretched out. A longer wavelength results in a lower frequency.

Magnesium is a shiny, flexible metal that can be burned in the presence of air.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

A new substance was formed

Explanation:

According to this question, a shiny and flexible metal called Magnesium (Mg) is burnt in air to produce a white powder that has no shiny or flexible properties, however, has more weight than the magnesium metal itself.

This is possible because a CHEMICAL CHANGE has occured, hence, a new substance has been formed. The formation of a new substance during the burning process (chemical reaction), induced the increase in mass.
