How do I know what kinematic equations to use when solving a question?

Physics

olganol [36]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

There are 5 kinematic equations, and 5 variables.

Each question will give you 3 variables and ask you to solve for a fourth.

To determine which equation to use, look at which variable is <em>not</em> included in the problem.

For example, if the question does not include time, then you need to use a kinematic equation that does not have t in it.  That would be:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Or, if the question does not include the final velocity, then you need a kinematic equation that does not have v in it.  That would be:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.    

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.
