Answer:

  • The initial speed of the truck is 21.93 m/s, and the initial speed of the car is 19.524 m/s  

Explanation:

We can use conservation of momentum to find the initial velocities.

Taking the unit vector \hat{i} pointing north and \hat{j} pointing east, the final velocity will be

\vec{V}_f = 16.0 \frac{m}{s} \ ( \ cos(24.0 \°) \ , \ sin (24.0 \°) \ )

\vec{V}_f = ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

The final linear momentum will be:

\vec{P}_f = (m_{car}+ m_{truck}) * V_f

\vec{P}_f = (950 \ kg \ + 1900 \ kg \ ) *  ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

\vec{P}_f = (2.850 \ kg \ ) *  ( \ 14.617 \frac{m}{s} \ , \ 6.508 \frac{m}{s} \ )

\vec{P}_f = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )

As there are not external forces, the total linear momentum must be constant.

So:

\vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f

As initially the car is travelling east, and the truck is travelling north, the initial linear momentum must be

\vec{P}_0= ( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} ) 

so:

 \vec{P}_0= \vec{P}_f 

( m_{truck} * v_{truck}, m_{car}* v_{car} ) = ( \ 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s} \ , \ 18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} \ )  

so

\left \{ {{m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}  } \atop {m_{car} \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s} }} \right.

So, for the truck

m_{truck} \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}

1900 \ kg \ v_{truck} = 41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}

v_{truck} = \frac{41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}}{1900 \ kg}

v_{truck} = \frac{41,658.45 \frac{ kg \ m}{s}}{1900 \ kg}

v_{truck} = 21.93 \frac{m}{s}

And, for the car

950 \ kg \ v_{car}=18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}

v_{car}=\frac{18,547.8 \frac{kg \ m}{s}}{950 \ kg}

v_{car}=19.524 \frac{m}{s}

1) A person having a mass of 59.1 kg stands before a flight of 30 stairs each of which is 25.0 cm high. He runs up 20 stairs, tu
poizon [28]

Answer:

P = 147,75 W

Explanation:

A man whose mass is 59.1kg climbs up 30 steps of a stair each step is 25 cm high

Height at 30 steps , h=30×2.5=  7.5 m

Change in potential energy , =mgh=59.1×10×7.5 = 4432.5 J

So, Work done by the man , W= 4432.5J

Power used , P= \frac{W}{T}

P = 4432.5 /30

P = 147,75 W

A 3kg book falls from a 2m tall bookshelf what is the speed <br><br> PICTURE included
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

39.2m/s

Explanation:

The potential energy the book has right before it falls is equal to the kinetic energy in falling.

PE = KE

mgh = (1/2)mv

2gh=v

v=(2)(9.81)(2)

v=39.24m/s

How can you tell there is only one atom of oxygen in H2O?
kow [346]

Answer:

For H2O, there is one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen. A molecule can be made of only one type of atom. In its stable molecular form, oxygen exists as two atoms and is written O2. to distinguish it from an atom of oxygen O, or ozone, a molecule of three oxygen atoms, O3.
