 Well, Break the problem up into parts. For speeding up: The car accelerates at 4 m/s^2 for 3 seconds. Multiplying these values tells you the car reaches a speed of 12 m/s. Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2a(Xf - Xi) 12^2 = 0 + 2(4)(Xf - 0) 144 = 8 Xf Xf = 18 m For coasting: The car is at the 12 m/s and does this for 2 seconds. x = vt = (12)(2) = 24 m For slowing down: The car decelerates at 3 m/s^2 to come to a stop at the next sign. From 12 m/s, this would take 12/3 seconds or 4 s. Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2a(Xf - Xi) 0 = 12^2 + (2)(-3)(Xf - 0) -144 = -6 Xf Xf = 24 m Summing the distances: Xtotal = 18 + 24 + 24 = 66 m

A ball with a momentum of 16 kg.M/s strikes a ball at rest. What is the total momentum of both the balls after the collision.
melomori [17]

Answer:

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Let the momentum of the two balls be A and B respectively.

Momentum A = 16 kgm/s

Momentum B = 0 kgm/s (since the ball is at rest).

Total momentum = A + B

Total momentum = 16 + 0

Total momentum = 16 Kgm/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

In this type of bond, electrons are lost or gained by atoms, and the atoms are held together by electrical attraction.
expeople1 [14]
<span>In Ionic type of bonding, electrons are lost (more protons than electrons and positive charge) or gained (more electrons than protons, still a negative charge) by atoms, and the atoms are held together by electrical attraction in the process. Covalent bondings are the sharing of electrons as well as partial bondings. Covalent bondings’ electrons have the same charges thus, there is no gaining or losing electrons in the process of sharing. Strong bondings are applicable only to Hydrogen (H) atoms. </span>

A 30.0 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension (in N) in the rope if the box has an initial velocity of 2.0 m/s and is slo
hjlf

Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

Below is the solution:

 <span>centripetal accel = 1.5*g 
ω²r = 1.5*9.8m/s² 
ω² * 8m = 14.7 m/s² 
ω = 1.36 rad/s * 1rev/2πrads * 60s/min = 12.9 rpm</span>
