Two gliders collide on an air track. Glider 1 has a mass of 7.0 kg, and glider 2 has a mass of 4.0 kg. Before the collision, gli

der 1 had a velocity of 2.0 m/s, and glider 2 had a velocity of -5.0 m/s. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what is the total kinetic energy of both gliders after the collision?

In an elastic collision, no energy is lost. The energy would be the same as before the collision.

Hoochie [10]
This is an example of inertia - the body keeps it's energy because there is no force applied to it. When we try to stop it's motion, it resists. A man is not rigidly attached to the bus, so he keeps moving forward, at least until he hits the front window from inside. Answer is D.

What is the acceleration experienced by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest
Lerok [7]

|acceleration|  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in the car's speed = (27 - 0) = 27 m/s
Time for the change  =  10 sec

|acceleration| = (27 m/s) / (10 s)  =  2.7 m/s² .

That's the magnitude of the car's acceleration.
We don't know anything about its direction.

Horace has invented a unique pair of reading glasses that have two small light bulbs at the bottom wired in series, so that he c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.

Explanation:  

Given that,

Resistance of each bulb, R = 2 ohms

Voltage of the system, V = 3.2 volts

These two bulbs are connected in series. The equivalent resistance will be 2 ohms +2 ohms = 4 ohms

Let I is the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses. Using Ohm's law to find it such that :

V=IR\\\\I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{3.2}{4}\\\\I=0.8\ A

So, the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.
