**URGENT PLEASE HELP**

Physics
2 answers:
nalin [4]3 years ago

Answer:

This depends on what angle they are approaching each other before they collided.The two simple cases are if they are running in the same direction or opposite direction from each other. For either case, use the conservation of momentum equation to solve: M_total*V_result = M1*V1 + M2*V2

Explanation:

Here are two possible solutions.

Head-on collision: M1=78, V1=8.5, M2=72, V2=-7.5 (that's negative because he's running the other way), M_total = 78+72 = 150, so V_result = (78*8.5 - 72*7.5)/150 = 0.82 m/s. Sanity check, they weigh about the same and so most of their velocity should cancel out.

Running the same way: change the sign of V2 to positive so V_result = (78*8.5 + 72*7.5)/150 = 8.02 m/s. Sanity check, they weigh about the same and the resultant speed is between the two starting velocities.

The Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world at 828 m. How much work would a man with a weight of 700 N do if he climbe
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

579600J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of the building  = 828m

Weight of the man  = 700N

Unknown:

Work done by the man  = ?

Solution:

The work done by the man is the same as the potential energy expended.

 Work done:

             Work done  = Weight x height  = 700 x 828

        Work done  = 579600J

A 2498 kg car is moving at 17.1 m/s slams on its brakes and slows to 2.6 m/s. What is the magnitude (absolute value) of the impu
bija089 [108]

Answer:

<em>J=36221 Kg.m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Impulse-Momentum Theorem</u>

These two magnitudes are related in the following way. Suppose an object is moving at a certain speed v_1 and changes it to v_2. The impulse is numerically equivalent to the change of linear momentum. Let's recall the momentum is given by

p=mv

The initial and final momentums are, respectively

p_1=mv_1,\ p_2=mv_2

The change of momentum is

\Delta p=p_2-p_1=m(v_2-v_1)

It is numerically equal to the Impulse J

J=\Delta p

J=m(v_2-v_1)

We are given

m=2498\ kg,\ v_1=17.1\ m/s,\ v_2=2.6\ m/s

The impulse the car experiences during that time is

J=2498(2.6-17.1)=2498(-14.5)

J=-36221 Kg.m/s

The magnitude of J is

J=36221 Kg.m/s

Does the densoty of an object change if you add more of it because i did an expirement that proved that the density does change
Marysya12 [62]
No the density does not change. Density is a ratio D=m/v no matter how much of a substance you have its mass will be proportional.
When doing density labs sometimes you might get different answers due to errors that are unavoidable.

A dog, that has a mass of 16 kgs, runs across a yard. What is the average force applied to the dog from the ground as it runs ac
VikaD [51]

Answer:

156.96 N

Explanation:

F=ma where m is the mass and a is acceleration

Substituting 16 Kg for m and 9.81 m/s2 for g then

F=16*9.81= 156.96 N

Explain How can you<br> use a distance-time graph<br> to calculate average<br> speed?
vodomira [7]

Explanation:

Average speed = change in distance / change in time

In other words, the average speed is the slope of the line connecting two points on the graph.
