Two cars (with masses 2000 kg and 1000 kg) collide head on an icy road. Before the collision, the more massive vehicle was movin

g at 10 m/s to the right and the less massive vehicle was moving at 15 m/s to the left. Immediately after the collision, the more massive vehicle was moving at 7.0 m/s to the left. How fast was the less massive Vehicle immediately after the collision?

Answer:

v₂' = 19 m/s

Explanation:

given,                    

mass of car one = m₁ = 2000 Kg

mass of car two = m₂ = 1000 Kg

velocity of car one in right (v₁) = 10 m/s

velocity of car two in left (v₂)= 15 m/s

after collision                        

velocity(v₁') = 7 m/s

v₂' = ?                            

using conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

2000 x 10 - 1000 x 15 = - 2000 x 7 + 1000 v₂'

1000 v₂' = 19000

v₂' = 19 m/s

A 465 g block slides along a frictionless surface at a speed of 0.35 m/s. It runs into a horizontal massless spring with spring
katovenus [111]

Answer:

a) The duration, during which the block remain in contact with the spring is 0.29 s

b) The period of the simple harmonic oscillatory motion depends only on the mass and spring constant, therefore when the speed is doubled, the duration of contact remains the same as 0.29 s.

Explanation:

Mass of the block = 465 g

Surface speed = 0.35 m/s

Spring constant , k = 54 N/m

T = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} } = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{0.465}{54} }  = 0.58 s

a) Since the period for the oscillatory motion is 0.58 s, then the time when the block and spring remain in contact is T/2 = 0.29 s

b) When the speed is doubled, we have

T = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} }

Therefore, since T is only dependent on the mass, m and the  spring constant, K, then the time it takes when the speed is doubled remain as

T /2 = 0.29 s

An object with mass M is attached to the
zysi [14]

Answer:

W = 5/4 Mgℓ

Explanation:

Sum of forces:

∑F = ma

T − Mg = M (g/4)

T = 5/4 Mg

Work = force × distance

W = Tℓ

W = 5/4 Mgℓ
