From the momentum conservation we know that the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum. The momentum in a singular way can be defined as the product between the mass and the velocity of an object. In the presented system, however, there are two objects, therefore the mass of both and the speed of both, before and after the collision must be taken into account. Mathematically we could describe this as

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Here,

m_{1,2} = Mass of each object

u_{1,2} = Initial velocity of each object

v_{1,2} = Final velocity of each object

From here we can realize that it is necessary to use the system on both cars to be able to predict what will happen either with their masses, or their speeds.

The correct answer is C.

A rubber-wheeled 50 kg cart rolls down a 35 degree concrete incline. Coefficient of rolling friction between rubber and concrete
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

(a) 5.62 m/s²

(b) 5.46 m/s²

Explanation:

The given values are:

mass,

m = 50 kg

angle

= 35°

(a)

If friction neglected,

⇒ F_x=mgSin \theta=ma

⇒ a_x=gSin \theta

       =9.8 \ Sin35^{\circ}

       =5.62 \ m/s^2

(b)

If friction present,

⇒ F_x=mgCos \theta

⇒ F_x=mgSin \theta-\mu_r mgCos \theta

⇒ a=gSin \theta-\mu_rgCos \theta

      =9.8 \ Sin35^{\circ}-0.02\times 9.8 \ Cos30^{\circ}

      =5.46 \ m/s^2
