Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the car, m₁ = 1250 kg
Initial speed of the car, u₁ = 7.39 m/s
Mass of the truck, m₂ = 5380 kg
It is stationary, u₂ = 0
Final speed of the truck, v₂ = 2.3 m/s
Let v₁ is the final velocity of the car. Using the conservation of momentum as :



So, the final velocity of the car is 2.5 m/s but in opposite direction. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
4m/s^2
Explanation:
mass(m)=20 kg
force=80 N
acceleration (a)=?
Therefore,
Force = mass * acceleration
80 = 20*a
a=80/20
=4m/s^2
Answer: 2812500 joules
Explanation:
Mass of car = 1500kg
Velocity of car = 75mph
Kinetic energy = ?
Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on its mass M and velocity, V
Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2
= 1/2 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2
= 0.5 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2
= 500 x 5625
= 2812500 joules
Thus, the car travels with a kinetic energy of 2812500 joules
If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.
