Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of bumper car, m₁ = 202 kg

Initial speed of the bumper car, u₁ = 8.5 m/s

Mass of the other car, m₂ = 355 kg

Initial velocity of the other car is 0 as it at rest, u₂ = 0

Final velocity of the other car after collision, v₂ = 5.8 m/s

Let p₁ is momentum of of 202 kg car, p₁ = m₁v₁

Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

202\ kg\times 8.5\ m/s+355\ kg\times 0=m_1v_1+355\ kg\times 5.8\ m/s

p₁ = m₁v₁ = -342 kg-m/s

So, the momentum of the 202 kg car afterwards is 342 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A boy is swinging a yo-yo with mass 0.25 kg in a circle with radius 1 m at a speed of 6 m/s. What is the tension in the string c
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

D. 9 N

Explanation:

The tension on the string is equivalent to the centripetal force.

Centripetal force is the force exerted by an object in circular motion or path towards the center of the circular path.

Centripetal force = mv²/r

where m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity and r is the radius of the circular path.

Centripetal force = (0.25 kg × 6²)/ 1

                            = 9 N

Thus, the tension on the string is 9 N

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 45 times as massive and falling at 8.2 m/s , a typical raindrop speed. How fast
netineya [11]

Answer:

The speed of the raindrop  and the mosquito is 8.02 m/s.

Explanation:

mass of mosquito = m

mass of drop = 45 m

initial velocity of mosquito, u = 0 m/s  

initial velocity of drop,  u' = 8.2 m/s

During the inelastic collision, the momentum of the system is conserved.  

Let the speed of rain drop and the mosquito is v.

Use the conservation of momentum

m x u + 45 m x u' = (m +  45 m) v

m x 0 + 45 m x 8.2 = 46 m x v

v = 8.02 m/s

Planets A and B have the same size, mass, and direction of travel, but planet
Luden [163]

Answer:

A. You would weigh the same on both planets because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Explanation:

Given that Planets A and B have the same size, mass.

Let the masses of the planets A and B are and respectively.

As masses are equal, so .

Similarly, let the radii of the planets A and B are and respectively.

As radii are equal, so .

Let my mass is m.

As the weight of any object on the planet is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the planet on the object.

So, my weight on planet A,

my weight of planet B,

By using equations (i) and (ii),

.

So, the weight on both planets is the same because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Hence, option (A) is correct.

Imagine that there is a small rocky body caught by Earth’s gravity. Draw a comic-strip cartoon to illustrate its journey as it t
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

To create this comic strip you can use a narration describing each step and illustrate each one with one image or drawing.

Creating a comic strip involves using images and short texts to explain a specific idea or phenomenon. In the case of the process for a meteor to enter Earth you can use the following ideas.

A meteoroid approaches the Earth at high speed and draw a meteor traveling near to different planets and approaching Earth.

What is that? and draw the Earth wondering who or what is approaching.

The meteoroid enters the atmosphere of the Earth and becomes a meteor and draw the rocky body burning

The rocky body crashes with the surface becoming a meteorite and draw the zone where the meteorite crashed.
