A toy car having mass m = 1.50 kg collides inelastically with a toy train of mass M = 3.60 kg. Before the collision, the toy tra

in is moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of Vi = 2.45 m/s and the toy car is also moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of vi = 4.75 m/s. Immediately after the collision, the toy car is observed moving in the positive x-direction with a velocity of 2.15 m/s.
(a) Determine Vf, the final velocity of the toy train.

Answer:

  v_{f} = 3,126 m / s

Explanation:

In a crash exercise the moment is conserved, for this a system formed by all the bodies before and after the crash is defined, so that the forces involved have been internalized.

the car has a mass of m = 1.50 kg a speed of v1 = 4.758 m / s and the mass of the train is M = 3.60 kg and its speed v2 = 2.45 m / s

Before the crash

    p₀ = m v₁₀ + M v₂₀

After the inelastic shock

    p_{f}= m v_{1f} + M v_{2f}

    p₀ =  p_{f}

    m v₀ + M v₂₀ = m v_{1f}  + M v_{2f}

We cleared the end of the train

     M v_{2f} = m (v₁₀ - v1f) + M v₂₀

Let's calculate

     3.60 v2f = 1.50 (2.15-4.75) + 3.60 2.45

     v_{2f}  = (-3.9 + 8.82) /3.60

      v_{2f}  = 1.36 m / s

As we can see, this speed is lower than the speed of the car, so the two bodies are joined

set speed must be

      m v₁₀ + M v₂₀ = (m + M) v_{f}

      v_{f}  = (m v₁₀ + M v₂₀) / (m + M)

      v_{f}  = (1.50 4.75 + 3.60 2.45) /(1.50 + 3.60)

      v_{f} = 3,126 m / s

Answer:

\Delta T=3.615^{\circ}C is the drop in the water temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of ice, m_i=14.7\ g=0.0147\ kg
  • mass of water, m_w=324\ g=0.324\ kg

Assuming the initial temperature of the ice to be 0° C.

<u>Apply the conservation of energy:</u>

  • Heat absorbed by the ice for melting is equal to the heat lost from water to melt ice.

<u>Now from the heat equation:</u>

Q_i=Q_w

m_i.L=m_w.c_w.\Delta T ......................(1)

where:

L= latent heat of fusion of ice =333.55\ J.g^{-1}

c_w= specific heat of water =4.186\ J.g^{-1}.^{\circ}C^{-1}

\Delta T= change in temperature

Putting values in eq. (1):

14.7 \times 333.55=324\times 4.186\times \Delta T

\Delta T=3.615^{\circ}C is the drop in the water temperature.
