Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg
Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s
mass of orange train = 200 kg
Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)
To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which
The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum
Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,
(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s
In terms of the scientific method, the immediate purpose of doing an experiment is gathering data. You cannot draw conclusions or form a proper hypothesis without some sort of basis and data.
The answer is:
C. 361 m/s
The explanation:
To calculate the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:
v = 331 + 0.6T
when V is the velocity
and T is the temperature = 50°C
by substitution:
v = 331 + 0.6(50)
v = 361 m/s
So, The correct answer is C.
because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the sound in the air is change with temperature.
Answer:
d=360 miles
Donna lives 360 miles from the mountains.
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
We apply the formula to calculate uniform moving distance[
d=v*t Formula (1)
d: distance in miles
t: time in hours
v: speed in miles/hour
Development of problem
The distance Donna traveled to the mountains is equal to the distance back home, equal to d,then,we pose the kinematic equations for d, applying formula 1:
travel data to the mountains: t₁= 8 hours , v=v₁
d= v₁*t₁=8*v₁ Equation (1)
data back home : t₂=4hours , v=v₂=v₁+45
d=v₂*t₂=(v₁+45)*4=4v₁+180 Equation (2)
Equation (1)=Equation (2)
8*v₁=4v₁+180
8*v₁-4v₁=180
4v₁=180
v₁=180÷4=45 miles/hour
we replace v₁=45 miles/hour in equation (1)
d=8hour*45miles/hour
d=360 miles
