7. A locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car

(with its load) is 37,000 kg. If the train is accelerating at 0.22m/s2 on a level track, what is the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars

Answer:

N 138380

Explanation:

Force = ma where m is the mass in kg and a is acceleration

the locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars mass of each car is 37 000 kg

the train accelerating at 0.22 m/s²

the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars = the tension between the second and third cars pulling the third car to the 19 th car = 17 × 37000 kg × 0.22 m/s² = N 138380

Describe how gps data are used in the study of certain animals
zheka24 [161]

GPS also known as Global positioning system is a satellite-based radio -navigation system used for many purposes, animal tracking being one of them.

In GPS tracking, a GPS tag is placed on the animal. This picks up signals from special satellites and the data is stored on-board the tag or transmitted to the user through a communication network.

These tags provide very accurate location estimations for animals. Thus it helps scientists and other wildlife observers with the accurate locations of animals and helps them in their studying and thesis work.

1. A toy car with mass m1 travels to the right on a frictionless track with a speed of 3 m/s. A second toy car with mass m2 trav
Alika [10]

Answer:

v = 3(m1 - 2m2)/(m1 + m2)

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Velocity of first toy car with mass m1, u1 = 3 m/s (taking the right direction as the positive axis)

Velocity of second toy car with mass m2, u2 = -6 m/s (taking the left direction as the negative x axis)

Using conservation of momentum principle:

Total initial momentum = Total final momentum

m1*u1 + m2*u2 = m1*v1 + m2*v2

Since they stick together after collision, they have the same final velocity.

m1*3 + (m2 * -6) = m1*v + m2*v

3m1 - 6m2 = (m1 + m2)v

v = (3m1 - 6m2) / (m1 + m2)

v = 3(m1 - 2m2) / (m1 + m2)
