Most motorcycles could win a drag race against most cars. UseNewton's 2nd law to explain this.​

Answer:

is has be deducted that acceleration of an object depends only on the the mass of the object. car has a greater mass that a motorcycle.

Explanation:

the newton second law states that when a net force act on an object,the object accelerates in the direction of the net force. the acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and inversely to the mass.

mathematically, F = ma    .......................... (eqn 1)

where, F = force, m=mass and  a = acceleration

F = m(ΔV/t)    .......................... (eqn 2)

acceleration =change in velocity divide time

t = time

v= velocity

Ft = mΔV

also a∝1/m

this same second can also mean the rate of change in momentum of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force.

Drag race is a function of acceleration, therefore, a car weighs more than a motorcycle.

the reason while motorcycle moves more faster than a car is due to the weight of the motorcycle as compare to the car. if the same acceleration is applied, and there weigth are difference, this will affect the force (causing an increased resultant force for the car), whereas time used will be affected.

for example:

a motorcycle has a weight 0f 181kg

a car has a weight 0f 1590kg

from  a∝1/m

they both will moves at a different acceleration

the force will be different

Ft = mΔV

A billiards ball B rests on a horizontal surface and is struck by another billiards ball A of the same mass m = 0.2 kg. Ball A i
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.2 kg

speed = 18 m/s

angle =  28°

to find out

final velocity and  mechanical energy both before and after the collision

solution

we know that conservation of momentum remain same so in x direction

mv = mv1 cosθ + mv2cosθ

put here value

0.2(18) = 0.2 v1 cos(28) + 0.2 v2 cos(90-28)

3.6 =  0.1765 V1 + 0.09389 v2    ................1

and

in y axis

mv = mv1 sinθ - mv2sinθ

0 = 0.2 v1 sin28 - 0.2 v2 sin(90-28)

0 = 0.09389 v1 - 0.1768 v2   .......................2

from equation 1 and 2

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

so

mechanical energy  before collision = 1/2 mv1² + 1/2 mv2²

mechanical energy before collision = 1/2 (0.2)(18)² + 0

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

and

mechanical energy after collision = 1/2 (0.2)(15.90)² + 1/2 (0.2)(8.46)²

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J
