Answer:

the two vehicles will be moving at a speed of 6.16  m/s

Explanation:

This is a case of completely inelastic collision, therefore, the conservation of momentum can be written as:

m_1\,v_1+m_2\,v_2=(m_1+m_2)\,v_f

which given the information provided results into:

m_1\,v_1+m_2\,v_2=(m_1+m_2)\,v_f\\(1250)\,(0)+(3550)\,(8.33)=(1250+3550)\,v_f\\29571.5=4800\,v_f\\v_f=6.16\,\,m/s

the earth has more rotational kinetic energy now than did the cloud of gas and dust from which it formed. where did this energy
goldfiish [28.3K]

Explanation:

Earth or any planet are actually born from huge clouds of gas and dust. Their stellar mass are fairly distributed at a radius from the axis of rotation. Gravitational force cause the cloud to come together. Now the whole gathered in smaller area. Now, individual particles come close to the roational axis. Thus, decreasing the moment of inertia of the planet.

As

I=mr^2

reducing r reduces I. However, the angular moment of the system remains always conserved. So, to conserve the angular momentum the angular velocity of the planet increases and so did the  otational kinetic energy

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the 26 ft diameter carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses i
hammer [34]

Answer:

a_M=1.92a_A

Explanation:

\omega_M=\omega_A = Angular speed

r_M = Distance of Mary = 11.5 ft

r_A = Distance of Alex = 6 ft

Ratio of centripetal acceleration is given by

\dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{\omega_M^2r_M}{\omega_A^2r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=a_A\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=\dfrac{11.5}{6}a_A\\\Rightarrow a_M=1.92a_A

Mary's centripetal acceleration is 1.92 times the centripetal acceleration of Alex
