Opinion on Water Conservation

Fresh water sources is always increasing because of population and industry gowth, Even though water eventually returns to Earth through the water cycle, it's not always returned to the same spot, or in the same quantity and quality. By reducing the amount of water we use, we can better protect against future drought years. Saving water can help others with needs of it

Acceleration is positive when you are speeding up.

Vikki [24]

Answer:

B Negative

Explanation:

Its negative because when your going 25 mph your moving faster and when your coming up to the stop sign you will start to slow down going 10 mph then 0 mph when you reach the stop sign so it will be negative.

A small car has a head-on collision with a large truck. Which of the following statements concerning the magnitude of the averag

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The small car and the truck experience the same average force.

Explanation:

Here we need to remember two of Newton's laws.

The second one says that:

F = m*a

force equals mass times acceleration.

And the third one says that;

"If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A"

From the third law, if the car experiences a force F due to the impact with the truck, then the truck experiences the same force F due to the impact.

But this seems odd, because we would expect to see the car being more affected by the impact, right?

Well, this is explained by the second law.

Suppose that the mass of the car is m, and the mass of the truck is M.

such that M > m

Then for the small car we have:

F = m*a

And for the truck:

F = M*a'

Because the force is the same for both of them, we can write:

m*a = M*a'

a = (M/m)*a'

because M > m, then M/m > 1.

This means that the acceleration that the car experiences is larger than the acceleration for the truck, and this is why we would see that the car seems more affected by the impact, regardless of the fact that both vehicles experience the same force in the impact.

A 4.30 g bullet moving at 943 m/s strikes a 730 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(a)2.7 m/s

(b) 5.52 m/s

Explanation:

The total of the system would be conserved as no external force is acting on it.

Initial momentum = final momentum

⇒(4.30 g × 943 m/s) + (730 g × 0) = (4.30 g × 484 m/s) + (730 g × v)

⇒ 730 ×v = (4054.9 - 2081.2) =1973.7

⇒v=2.7 m/s

Thus, the resulting speed of the block is 2.7 m/s.

(b) since, the momentum is conserved, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass would be constant.

$V_{COM} = \frac{m_b}{m_b+m_{bl}}v_{bi}=\frac{4.30}{4.30+730}\times 943 m/s = 5.52 m/s$

Thus, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass is 5.52 m/s.
