Use the values from PRACTICE IT to help you work this exercise. Suppose the same two vehicles are both traveling eastward, the c

ompact car leading the pickup truck. The driver of the compact car slams on the brakes suddenly, slowing the vehicle to 5.79 m/s. If the pickup truck traveling at 18.5 m/s crashes into the compact car, find the following.
A. the speed of the system right after the collision, assuming the two vehicles become entangled
B. the change in velocity for both vehicles
C. the change in kinetic energy of the system, from the instant before impact (when the compact car is traveling at 5.79 m/s) to the instant right after the collision

The masses are, pickup truck mass of 1.73 multiply.gif 103 kg and compact car mass of 9.32 multiply.gif 102 kg

Answer:

A. v_{3}=12.17m/s

B. v_{car}=6.3m/s\\v_{truck}=-6.3m/s

C. ΔK=-4.13x10^3J

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the car and the truck are traveling eastward. I'm going to name the car 1 and the truck 2

v_{1}=5.79m/s\\m_{1}=102kg\\v_{2}=18.5m/s\\m_{2}=103kg

A. Since the two vehicles become entangled the final mass is:

m_{3}=102kg+103kg=205kg

From linear momentum we got that:

p_{1}=p_{2}

m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{3}v_{3}

v_{3}=\frac{m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}}{m_{3} }=\frac{(102kg)(5.79m/s)+(103kg)(18.5m/s)}{(205kg)}

v_{3}=12.17m/s

B. The change in velocity of both vehicles are:

For the car

v_{car}=v_{f}-v_{o}=12.17m/s-5.79m/s=6.38m/s

For the truck

v_{truck}=12.17m/s-18.5m/s=-6.3m/s

C. The change in kinetic energy is:

ΔK=K_{2}-K_{1} =\frac{1}{2}m_{3}v_{3}^{2}-(\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2})

ΔK=\frac{1}{2}(205)(12.17)^{2}-(\frac{1}{2}(102)(5.79)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}(103)(18.5)^{2})=-4.13x10^{3}J

ΔK=-4.13x10^{3}J

750 kg car zooms away from a red light with an acceleration of 7.8 m/s squared . What is the average net force in Newtons that t
natta225 [31]

Answer:

<h2>5850 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 750 × 7.8

We have the final answer as

<h3>5850 N</h3>

What is the specific enthalpy of benzene vapor at 45 c and 0.7 atm absolute pressure, relative to a reference state of benzene v
vazorg [7]

The specific enthalpy of benzene vapor at 45 c and 0.7 atm absolute pressure, relative to a reference state of benzene vapor at 45 c and 1.27 atm absolute pressure will be 0 kJ/mol.

<h3>What is specific enthalpy and how was it calculated in the question?</h3>

A thermodynamic system has a property called enthalpy (H). It is calculated by the sum of the internal energy (U) of the thermodynamic system and the product of its volume (V) and pressure (p). The SI Unit is Joule (J).

Equation:

H = U+pV

The specific enthalpy of vapor can be defined as the amount of energy spent in order to transform a liquid substance into its vapor or gaseous form. The SI Unit is kJ/mol.

In the above question, the formula to be used is

P1/P2 = (Δ Hvap)/R)(1/T2-1/T1)

T1 & P1 --> the starting temperature & pressure respectively (= 1.27 atm and 45c),

T2 & P2 --> the final temperature & pressure respectively (= 0.7 atm and 45c),

R --> the real gas constant i.e. 8.314kJ/mol and

ΔHvap --> The specific enthalpy of vaporization.

Putting the values in the equation;

1.27/0.7=(ΔHvap/8.314)(1/45-1/45)

Hence as after subtracting the equation becomes 0, our final answer also comes out to be ΔHvap= 0 kJ/mol.

How does the generator effect work?​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The changing magnetic field within the loops of wire creates an electric field that pushes the electrons in the wire through the lamp, briefly lighting it

Explanation:

The GE demonstrates that a voltage, and hence a current, can be generated by plunging a coil of wire into and out of a strong magnet.

A horizontal wire is hung from the ceiling of a room by two massless strings. The wire has a length of 0.11 m and a mass of 0.01
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting horizontally will deflect the wire by angle φ from the vertical

Let T be the tension

T cosφ = mg

Tsinφ = Magnetic force

Tsinφ = BiL  , where B is magnetic field , i is current and L is length of wire

Dividing

Tanφ = BiL / mg

= .055 x 29 x .11 / .010 x 9.8

= 1.79

φ = 61° .

Tension T = mg / cosφ

= .01 x 9.8 / cos61

= .2 N .
