not enough information is given to determine the velocity of the object at time to=0.00s
Linear momentum has to be conserved. It was zero before the thread eas burned ... when nothing was moving ... so the momentum of the masses moving in opposite directions has to add up to zero. ... Momentum = mass times speed. ... In one direction, you have 5 kg times 1/5 m/s= 1 kg-m/s. ... We need 1 kg-m/s in the other direction. ... 7 kg times speed = 1 kg-m/s. ... Can you finish it from here ?
Answer:
Accuracy is how close a measured value is to an accepted value. <u>Precision is how close measurements are to one another.</u> To make measurements, you have to evaluate both the accuracy and the precision to get a correct value.
We know that 1 minute= 60 seconds (or 1 min= 60 s).
10 min* (60 s/ 1 min)* (2.0 m/ 1 s)= 1,200 m.
(Note that the units cancel out so you get the answer)
The final answer is 1,200 m.
Hope this helps~
