Answer:
speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
mass of truck M = 1370 kg
speed of truck = 12.0 m/s
mass of car m = 593 kg
collision is elastic therefore,
Applying law of momentum conservation we have
momentum before collision = momentum after collision
1370×12 + 0( initially car is at rest) = 1370×v1+ 593×v2 ....(i)
Also for a collision to be elastic,
velocity of approach = velocity of separation
12 -0 = v2-v1 ....(ii)
using (i) and (ii) we have
So speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.
The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m
The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.
This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m
So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)
Answer:
A) Energy is tranferred from Joey to the water. The temperature of the water increases.
Explanation:
At first Joey jumps and gains a height above the water level of the pool, this way has an energy potential initial, as Joey falls into the water his speed is increased that is to say its energy potential is transformed into kinetic energy, and at the moment of impact with the water, this energy kinetic is transformed into heat which is transferred to the water. Therefore the temperature increment.
Note: This is one of the reasons why space agencies are studying spatial asteroids that are directed toward the earth, as these come with great kinetic energy, and great potential energy, if these are of a considerable size can cause catastrophic damage, even if they fall into the ocean, due to the large amount of energy which can cause the instantaneous evaporation of large amounts of water and collateral damage in other areas.
