Help meeeeeeeeeeeeee! please show work! In a collision, Kara Less who was traveling at 11 m/s while texting in her 1300 kg car,

is struck by another vehicle and finds herself and her phone suddenly moving 2.5 m/s in the opposite direction. What impulse does she experience?

The impulse experienced is -18,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object. Mathematically:

I=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity of the object

u is the initial velocity

\Delta p is the change in momentum

I is the impulse

In the collision in this problem,

m = 1300 kg is the mass of the car

u = 11 m/s is the initial velocity

v = -2.5 m/s is the final velocity (negative, since it is in the opposite direction)

Substituting, we find

I=(1300)(-2.5-11)=-17,550 kg m/s

So the closest choice is

-18,000 kg m/s

Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up
Westkost [7]

Answer:

24 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the cube = 6.0 kg

Consider the three cubes together as one.

M = mass of the three cubes together = 3 m = 3 (6.0) = 18 kg

a = acceleration of the combination = 2 ms⁻²

F = Force applied on the combination

Using Newton's second law

F = ma = (18) (2) = 36 N

F_{L} = Force by the left cube on the middle cube

Consider the forces acting on left cube, from the force diagram, we have

F - F_{L} = ma \\36 - F_{L} = (6) (2)\\F_{L} = 24 N

Why might scientists measure the mass of object rather than the weight of an object?
Marina CMI [18]
Because they have different measurements and weight and mass and some measurements are the same
