When cars are equipped with flexible bumpers, they will bounce off each other during low-speed collisions, thus causing less dam

age. In one such accident, a 1850 kg car traveling to the right at 1.60 m/s collides with a 1400 kg car going to the left at 1.10 m/s . Measurements show that the heavier car's speed just after the collision was 0.270 m/s in its original direction. You can ignore any road friction during the collision.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

U1 = 1.6 m/s

U2 = -1.1 m/s

M1 = 1850 kg

M2 = 1400 kg

V1 = 0.27 m/s

Using momentum- collision equation,

M1U1 + M2U2 = M1V1 + M2V2

1850 × 1.6 - 1400 × 1.1 = 1850 × 0.27 + 1400 × V2

1420 = 499.5 + 1400V2

V2 = 0.6575 m/s

B.

KE = 1/2 × MV^2

KEa1 + KEa2 = KEb1 + KEb2

Delta KE = KE2 - KE1

KEa1 = 2368 J

KEb1 = 847 J

KEa2 = 67.433 J

KEb2 = 302.6 J

KE1 = KEa1 + KEb1

= 3215 J

KE2 = 370.033 J

Delta KE = -2845 J.

What's the difference between meteoroids, meteorites, and meteors?
SVEN [57.7K]

You're talking about a grain of sand or a stone or a rock that's drifting in space, and then the Earth happens to get in the way, so the stone falls down to Earth, and it makes a bright streak of light while it's falling through the atmosphere and burning up from the friction.

-- While it's drifting in space, it's a <em>meteoroid</em>.

-- While it's falling through the atmosphere burning up and making a bright streak of light, it's a <em>meteor</em>.

-- If it doesn't completely burn up and there's some of it left to fall on the ground, then the leftover piece on the ground is a <em>meteorite</em>.
