<span>So we want to know what happens to the momentum of the ball that rolls down hill and hits a box. So we need to use the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum must be conserved. It cant be transformed into inertia or mass. It can only be transferred to other object via some interactions like collisions. So it has to be a. transferred to the box and that is the correct answer. </span>

A car and a truck start from rest at the same instant, with the car initially at some distance behind the truck. The truck has a

Svet_ta [14]

A) The car overtakes the truck after 7.56 s

B) Initial distance between car and truck: 37.1 m

C) Speed of the truck: 15.9 m/s, speed of the car: 25.7 m/s

D) See graph in attachment

Explanation:

A)

The truck starts from rest and has a constant acceleration, so its position at time t can be written as

$x_t(t)=d+\frac{1}{2}a_tt^2$

where

d is the initial distance between the truck and the car (the truck starts some distance ahead of the car)

$a_t=2.10 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the truck

The car position instead it is given by the equation

$x_c(t)=\frac{1}{2}a_ct^2$

where

$a_c=3.40 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the car

The car overtakes the truck when the truck has moved 60.0 m, so when

$x_t(t') = d + 60$

Therefore, solving the equation, we find the time t when this occurs:

$d+\frac{1}{2}a_t t'^2 = d+60\\\frac{1}{2}a_tt'^2=60\\t'=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 60}{a_t}}=\sqrt{\frac{120}{2.1}}=7.56 s$

B)

In order to find the initial distance between the car and the truck (d), we have to calculate first the distance covered by the car during these 7.56 s. It is given by:

$x_c(t')=\frac{1}{2}a_c t'^2=\frac{1}{2}(3.40)(7.56)^2=97.2 m$

This means that after 7.56 s, when the car reaches the truck, the car has covered 97.2 m while the truck has covered 60 m. However, their positions are now equal, so we can write:

$x_c(t')=x_t(t')$

And by solving the equation, we find the value of d, the initial distance between car and truck:

$\frac{1}{2}a_c t'^2 = d + \frac{1}{2}a_t t'^2\\d=\frac{1}{2}(a_c-a_t)t'^2 = \frac{1}{2}(3.40-2.10)(7.56)^2=37.1 m$

C)

In order to find the speed of each vehicle, we use the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the truck, we have:

u = 0

$a_t = 2.10 m/s^2$

So its speed after t = 7.56 s is

$v_t = 0+(2.10)(7.56)=15.9 m/s$

For the car, we have

u = 0

$a_c=3.40 m/s^2$

So its speed after t = 7.56 s is

$v_c=0+(3.40)(7.56)=25.7 m/s$

D)

Find the graph required in attachment.

On the x-axis, it is represented the time in seconds. On the y-axis, it is represented the position in meters.

Both curves are in the shape of a parabola since the motion of both vehicles is an accelerated motion.

The curve that starts at -37.1 m is the curve representing the car: in fact, the car starts behind the truck by 37.1 m. The curve that starts from x = 0, t= 0 is that of the truck.

The two curves meets when t = 7.56 s: at that time, the two vehicles have reached the same position, and we see that occurs when x = 60 m, which means that this happens when the truck has covered 60 meters.

Suppose you are asked to find the amount of time t, in seconds, it takes for the turntable to reach its final rotational speed.

Annette [7]

Answer:

option (D)

Explanation:

Here initial rotation speed is given, final rotation speed is given and asking for time.

If we use

A) θ=θ0+ω0t+(1/2)αt2

For this equation, we don't have any information about the value of angular displacement and angular acceleration, so it is not useful.

B) ω=ω0+αt

For this equation, we don't have any information about angular acceleration, so it is not useful.

C) ω2=ω02+2α(θ−θ0)

In this equation, time is not included, so it is not useful.

D) So, more information is needed.

Thus, option (D) is true.

A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed

Katarina [22]

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object $m_1=52 kg$

distance of $m_1$ from the axle $r_1=14 cm$

mass of rock $m_2=123 gm$

Length of rod $=4.1 m$

distance of $m_2$ from axle $r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m$

Net torque acting is

$T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2$

$T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g$

$T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8$

$T_{net}=66.57 N-m$

Work done by $T_{net}$ is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

$T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}$

Where $\theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}$

$v= velocity\ at\ launch$

$66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}$

$v^2=66.57\times \pi$

$v=\sqrt{1700.511}$

$v=41.23 m/s$

Explain why some people see objects nearby clearly, but objects far away appear blurry. Also, explain how this condition can be

Maru [420]

Myopia

Explanation:

myopia is a common vision condition in which you can see objects near to you clearly, but objects farther away are blurry. It occurs when the shape of your eye causes light rays to refract incorrectly, focusing images in front of your retina instead of on your retina. It can be corrected corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.
