To solve this problem, we must remember about the law of
conservation of momentum. The initial momentum mist be equal to the final
momentum, that is:
m1 v1 + m2 v2 = (m1 + m2) v’
where v’ is the speed of impact
Since we are not given the masses of each car m1 and m2,
so let us assume that they are equal, such that:
m1 = m2 = m
Which makes the equation:
m v1 + m v2 = (2 m) v’
Cancelling m and substituting the v values:
50 + 48 = 2 v’
2 v’ = 98
v ‘ = 49 km/h
<span>The speed of impact is 49 km/h.</span>
Mutualism is a long-term relationship where two organisms interact in such a way that both of them benefits from that relationship.
For example, there is a relationship between a bird called "oxpecker", and a rhino. While the bird eats the harmful bugs (eg. tick) on the rhino's skin and relieves its hunger; the rhino gets rid of the bugs that harm it.
Answer: 1608.39 J
Explanation: Given that the
mass M = 42kg
U = 11.5m/s
V = 3.33m/s
how much work did friction do
Work done = Force × distance
Work done = Ma × distance
But acceleration a = V/t
Work done = M × V/t × d
Work done = M × V × d/t
Where d/t = velocity
Therefore,
Work done = M × U × V
Work done = 42 × 11.5 × 3.33
Work done = 1608.39 J
