Answer:

2.6645m

Explanation:

applying motion equations we can find the answer,

$v^{2}=u^{2} +2as$

Let assume ,

u = starting speed(velocity)

v = Final speed (velocity)

s = distance traveled

a = acceleration

by the time of reaching the highest point subjected to the gravity , the speed should be equal to zero

we consider the motion upwards , in this case the gravitational acceleration should be negative in upwards (assume g =10 m/s2 downwards)

that is,

$v^{2}=u^{2} +2as\\0=7.3^{2} -2*10*s\\s=2.6645m$

Let’s say I am in a bumper car and have a velocity of 14 m/s, driving in the positive x-direction. I and my bumped car have a ma

Answer:

160 kg

12 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of first car = 120 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of second car

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of first car = 14 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of second car = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of first car = -2 m/s

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of second car

For perfectly elastic collision

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}-m_{1}v_{1}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=120\times 14+m_2\times 0-(120\times -2)\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=1920\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}$

Applying in the next equation

$v_2=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 120}{120+\frac{1920}{v_2}}\times 14+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}\times 0\\\Rightarrow \left(120+\frac{1920}{v_2}\right)v_2=3360\\\Rightarrow 120v_2+1920=3360\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{3360-1920}{120}\\\Rightarrow v_2=12\ m/s$

$m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{12}\\\Rightarrow m_2=160\ kg$

Mass of second car = 160 kg

Velocity of second car = 12 m/s

Answer:

All soft drinks contain water. When soft drink bottles are chilled in sub-zero temperatures, the water on account of its anomalous expansion expands. Thus, to provide space for expanding water, soft drink bottles are not completely filled as otherwise they will burst.
