Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.
Answer:
0.231 m/s
Explanation:
m = mass attached to the spring = 0.405 kg
k = spring constant of spring = 26.3 N/m
x₀ = initial position = 3.31 cm = 0.0331 m
x = final position = (0.5) x₀ = (0.5) (0.0331) = 0.01655 m
v₀ = initial speed = 0 m/s
v = final speed = ?
Using conservation of energy
Initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy = Final kinetic energy + final spring energy
(0.5) m v₀² + (0.5) k x₀² = (0.5) m v² + (0.5) k x²
m v₀² + k x₀² = m v² + k x²
(0.405) (0)² + (26.3) (0.0331)² = (0.405) v² + (26.3) (0.01655)²
v = 0.231 m/s
The answer is C hope this helps <span />
Answer:Explained below.
Explanation:
Uranus rings is made up of jet black, coal-like particles in small bands, making them difficult to perceive from Earth.This indicates that they are probably composed of a mixture of the ice and a dark material. The nature of material is dismal, but it might be some organic compounds greatly darkened by the charged particle irradiation from the Uranian magnetosphere. Rings were discovered by using a infrared telescope throughout the occultation of a star as Uranus passed in front of it. The light from the star dimmed many times before it was obstructed by the disk of Uranus and subsequently, showing the presence of various distinct rings.
' W ' is the symbol for 'Watt' ... the unit of power equal to 1 joule/second.
That's all the physics we need to know to answer this question.
The rest is just arithmetic.
(60 joules/sec) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (3600 sec/hour)
= (60 · 30 · 8 · 3600) (joule · day · hour · sec) / (sec · day · hour)
= 51,840,000 joules

Wait a minute ! Hold up ! Hee haw ! Whoa !
Excuse me. That will never do.
I see they want the answer in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh).
In that case, it's
(60 watts) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (1 kW/1,000 watts)
= (60 · 30 · 8 · 1 / 1,000) (watt · day · hour · kW / day · watt)
= 14.4 kW·hour
Rounded to the nearest whole number:
14 kWh
