Answer:

32500 kg m/s east, 42500 kg m/s west. Second car has larger momentum

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by

p = mv

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

For the first car, m = 500 kg and v = 65 m/s east, so the momentum is

p_1 = (500)(65)=32500 kg m/s east

For the second car, m = 500 kg and v = 85 m/s west, so the momentum is

p_2 = (500)(85)=42500 kg m/s west

By comparing the two momentum, we see that the second car has larger momentum.

zepelin [54]

The answer given by E2020 is

"The padding around the goal post increases the time of the collision between the player and the post, which decreases the force exerted to bring the player to a stop"

A string is stretched between a fixed support and a pulley a distance 111 cm apart. The tension on the string is controlled by a
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

88.8 m/s= Speed of wave propagation in the required mode.(3 loops)

Explanation:

When there are 3 loops.  

the total length = L = 3 λ /2

⇒ λ  = 2 L / 3 = 2 ( 1.11 ) / 3 = 0.74 m

Velocity = v = f λ = (120)(0.74) = 88.8 m/s

A ball on a string makes 25.0 revolutions in 9.37 s, in a circle radius 0.450 m. What is it’s velocity?
Sauron [17]

The velocity of the ball is 12.5 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the ball is given by the ratio between the distance covered by the ball and the time taken:

v=\frac{d}{t}

First, we calculate the distance covered. We know that the radius of the circle is

r = 0.450 m

And the length of the circumference is

L=2\pi r = 2\pi(0.750)=4.7 m

The ball makes 25.0 revolutions, so a total distance of

d=(25.0)L=(25.0)(4.7)=117.5 m

In a time of

t = 9.37 s

So, its velocity is

v=\frac{117.5}{9.37}=12.5 m/s

A 2-kW electric heater takes 15 min to boil a quantity of water. If this is done once a day and power costs 10 cents per kWh, wh
frozen [14]

Answer:

<h2> $1.50</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

power P= 2 kW

time t= 15 min to hours = 15/60= 1/4 h

cost of power consumption per kWh= 10 cent = $0.1

We are expected to compute the cost of operating the heater for 30 days

but let us computer the energy consumption for one day

Energy of heater  for one day= 2* 1/4 = 0.5 kWh

the cost of operating the heater for 30 days= 0.5*0.1*30= $1.50

<u><em>Hence it will cost  $1.50 for 30 days operation</em></u>
