Answer:

Around 3.57m/s

Explanation:

p=mv

Let's denote the momentum, mass, and velocity of the car with the subscript 1, and for the truck use 2. After the collision, the combined momentum can be denoted with the subscript 3.

p_1=1200\cdot 9=10800 \\\\p_2=1600\cdot 13=20800 \\\\20800-10800=10000 \\\\1200kg+1600kg=2800kg \\\\10000=2800v_3 \\\\v_3\approx 3.57m/s

Hope this helps!

An electric field is produced by the very long, uniformly charged rod drawn above. If the strength of the electric field is E1 a
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

answer :

r2 = 4r1

Explanation:

Electric field strength = F / q

we will assume the rod has an infinite length

For an infinitely charged rod

E ∝ 1/ r

considering two electric fields E1 and E2 at two different locations as described in the question

E1/E2 = r1/r2 ----- ( 2 )

<u>Calculate for r2 when E2 = E1/4 </u>

back to equation 2

E1 / (E1/4) = r1 / r2

∴ r2 = 4r1

dado los vectores a=3.5 b=4 c=6.5 , si se sabe que a+b+c=0 (resultante) cual es el angulo formado por A y B?
lawyer [7]

cos(A) = (b2 + c2 − a2) / 2bc = (16+6.5^2-3.5^2)/(2*4*6.5) = 0.88461538  so A = cos−1 (0.88461538) = 27.79 Deg cos(B) = (c2 + a2 − b2)/2ca = (3.5^2+6.5^2-16)/(2*3.5*6.5) = 0.84615385  so B = cos−1 (0.84615385) = 32.2 Deg
