We have volume of gasoline = 14.0 gallon
Time taken to fill automobile tank = 1.50 minutes
So volume rate = 14.0 gallon/1.50 minutes = 9.33 gallon/ minute
We have density of gasoline = 0.77 kg/L = 6.073 lb/US gal
Mass rate = Density * Volume rate
= 9.33 gallon/ minute*6.073 lb/US gal = 56.68 lb/min
So mass flow rate delivered by the gasoline pump in lbm/min = 56.68
It's gravity I believe? I'm not entirely sure.
When two bodies collide with each other in the absence of an external force, then the total final momentum of the bodies is equal to their total initial momentum.
String the·o·ry
noun
a cosmological theory based on the existence of cosmic strings.
Answer: vl = 2.75 m/s vt = 1.5 m/s
Explanation:
If we assume that no external forces act during the collision, total momentum must be conserved.
If both cars are identical and also the drivers have the same mass, we can write the following:
m (vi1 + vi2) = m (vf1 + vf2) (1)
The sum of the initial speeds must be equal to the sum of the final ones.
If we are told that kinetic energy must be conserved also, simplifying, we can write:
vi1² + vi2² = vf1² + vf2² (2)
The only condition that satisfies (1) and (2) simultaneously is the one in which both masses exchange speeds, so we can write:
vf1 = vi2 and vf2 = vi1
If we call v1 to the speed of the leading car, and v2 to the trailing one, we can finally put the following:
vf1 = 2.75 m/s vf2 = 1.5 m/s
