Chuck and Jackie stand on separate carts, both of which can slide without friction. The combined mass of Chuck and his cart, mca

rt, is identical to the combined mass of Jackie and her cart. Initially, Chuck and Jackie and their carts are at rest. Chuck then picks up a ball of mass mball and throws it to Jackie, who catches it. Assume that the ball travels in a straight line parallel to the ground (ignore the effect of gravity). After Chuck throws the ball, his speed relative to the ground is vc. The speed of the thrown ball relative to the ground is vb. Jackie catches the ball when it reaches her, and she and her cart begin to move. Jackie's speed relative to the ground after she catches the ball is vj. When answering the questions in this problem, keep the following in mind: The original mass mcart of Chuck and his cart does not include the mass of the ball. The speed of an object is the magnitude of its velocity. An object's speed will always be a nonnegative quantity. Find the relative speed u between Chuck and the ball after Chuck has thrown theball.
Express the speed in terms ofv_c and v_b.

As per momentum conservation we can say that Chuck and ball as a system has no external force

So here momentum of them must be conserved

now here initially if they are at rest

so we can say

P_i = P_f

0 = m_{cart}v_c + m_{ball} v_b

now we have

v_b = \frac{m_{cart}v_c}{m_{ball}

now the relative velocity of the cart and ball is given as

v_r = v_c + \frac{m_{cart}v_c}{m_{ball}

also we can say since they are moving in opposite direction so relative speed will be

v_r = v_c + v_b

A person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force. The force with which the earth is attract
suter [353]

Answer:

800 N

Explanation:

By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.

Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the  the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.

A 13,000 kg helicopter accelerates upward a 0.5 m/s^2 while lifting a 2000 pound car. to the nearest newton, what is the lift fo
Vinil7 [7]

Lift force exerted by the air on the rotors=143244 N

Explanation:

we use Newtons second law

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F= lift force

m= mass of helicopter= 13000 Kg

M= mass of car= 2000 lb=907.2 kg

a= acceleration= 0.5 m/s²

g= acceleration due to gravity

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F=(M+m)(a+g)

F=(13000+907.2)(0.5+9.8)

F=143244 N

When does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy? uring freezing during deposition during sublimation during condensation?
ololo11 [35]
The answer for the given question above would be the third option. Carbon dioxide absorbs the most heat energy during SUBLIMATION. By definition, sublimation is <span>the transition of a substance from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Hope this answers your question.</span>
