If a car crashes into another car like this, the wreck should go nowhere. Besides this being an unrealistic question, the physics of it would look like this:

Momentum before and after the collision is conserved.

Momentum before the collision:
p = m * v = 50000kg * 24m/s + 55000kg * 0m/s = 50000kg * 24m/s
Momentum after the collision:
p = m * v = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Setting both momenta equal:
50000kg * 24m/s = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Solving for the velocity v:
v = 50000kg * 24m/s/(50000kg + 55000kg) = 11,43m/s

Explain how carbon is cycled between the hydrosphere and geosphere. Use specific examples.

joja [24]

Carbon is found in the solid form in geosphere of our earth. Coal and oil are some of the examples of materials containing carbon in the geosphere. when the coal or oil is burnt, carbon dioxide is formed and released in atmosphere. This carbon dioxide is absorbed by the water of the hydrosphere with the help of algae and plankton. The water turns acidic in nature. This way carbon is transferred from geosphere to hydrosphere.

Answer: $5.9(10)^{-8} m$

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the center of mass $C_{M}$ of a particle system is:

$C_{M}=\frac{m_{1}r_{1}+m_{1}r_{1}+...+m_{n}r_{n}}{m_{1}+m_{2}+...+m_{n}}$

In this case we can arrange for one dimension, assuming the geometric center of the Earth and the ladder are on a line, and assuming original center of mass located at the Earth's geometric center:

$C_{M}=\frac{m_{E}(0 m) + m_{p} r_{E-p}}{m_{E}+m_{p}}$
