Kinetic energy is the product of mass and the square of the velocity of the moving object. In this case, we substitute the given data, that is 1.8 x10^5 joules = m * (20 m/s2)^2. Extracting the mass, the mass of the car therefore is equal to 450 kg

Explanation :

Given that,

Velocity of the car, v = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy of the car, E_k=1.8\times 10^5\ J

Kinetic energy is given by :

E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

m=\dfrac{2E_k}{v^2}

So, m=\dfrac{2\times 1.8\times 10^5\ J }{(20\ m/s)^2}

m = 900 kg

Hence, the mass of the car is 900 kg

What is an Amplitude
dangina [55]

Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).

A 5.0 kg chunk of putty moving at 10m/s collides and sticks to a 7.0 kg bowling ball that is initially at rest.What is the total
Flura [38]

Answer:

Total momentum = 50kgm/s

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, M1 = 5kg

Mass, M2 = 7kg

Velocity, V1 = 10m/s

Velocity, V2 = 0m/s (since it's at rest).

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

Total momentum = M1V1 + M2V2

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Total momentum = 5*10 + 7*0

Total momentum = 50 + 0

<em>Total momentum = 50 kgm/s</em>

<em>Therefore, the total momentum of the bowling ball and the putty after they collide is 50 kgm/s. </em>
