Answer:
Final velocity = 7.677 m/s
KE before crash = 202300 J
KE after crash = 182,702.62 J
Explanation:
We are given;
m1 = 1400 kg
m2 = 4700 kg
u1 = 17 m/s
u2 = 0 m/s
Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;
m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v
Where v is final velocity after collision.
Plugging in the relevant values;
(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v
23800 = 3100v
v = 23800/3100
v = 7.677 m/s
Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J
Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J
It mainly travels by kinetic energy
Considering the total body, there are six elements of fitness: aerobic capacity, body structure, body composition, balance, muscular flexibility and strength
Answer:
a) m = 69.0 kg
b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement
Explanation:
a) Let's use Newton's second law
F = m a
m = F / a
m = 60.0 / 0.870
m = 69.0 kg
b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved
p₀ = p_f
m v = M v '
v ’= 
so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.
One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.
Answer:
Difference threshold or also Just Noticeable Difference
Explanation:
The above mentioned case between room mates, where one room mate was able to detect a minute change in volume shows an instance of the difference threshold.
Difference threshold can be defined as stimulation at its minimum level that can be detected by an individual almost 50 % of the times.
It is the lowest possible level of sound that is detectable by a person.
That is what happened in the mentioned case that when the volume was increased from 14 to 15, Amber was able to detect it.
