A 1500 kg car traveling at 15.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4500 kg truck that is at rest at a stopligt. The car comes to a

stop but imparts all it’s mometum to the truck. How fast is the truck moving after the collision and in which direction? (Hint: this is an elastic collision)
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1 + m2v1

Answer:

5 m/s, moving to the South.

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of car, m = 1500 kg

Initial velocity of car, u = 15 m/s

Mass of truck, M = 4500 kg

Initial velocity of truck, v = 0 m/s (Truck is at rest)

Final velocity of car, U = 0 m/s (Car comes to a stop)

Final velocity of truck = V

Because the collision is elastic, we can apply the principle of conservation of momentum, we have that:

Total initial momentum = Total final momentum

m*u + M*U = m*v + M*V

(1500 * 15) + (4500 * 0) = (1500 * 0) + (4500 * V)

22500 + 0 = 0 + 00V

=> V = 22500/4500

V = 5 m/s

The velocity carries a positive sign, hence, it's moving in the same direction as the car was moving initially.

That is, it's moving to the South.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

5m/s to the south

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using the principle of conservation of linear momentum which states that the total momentum of colliding bodies before collision is equal to the total momentum of these bodies after collision. In other words, given two bodies of masses m₁ and m₂ and initial velocities u₁ and u₂ respectively. When these two bodies collide and they begin to move with final velocities of v₁ and v₂ respectively, the momentum before they collide is equal to the momentum after they collide. i.e

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂        ------------------(i)

From the question, the bodies are a car and a truck.

Therefore;

m₁ = mass of car = 1500kg

m₂ = mass of the truck = 4500kg

u₁ = initial velocity of the car = +15.0m/s (taking due south as positive)

u₂ = initial velocity of the truck = 0m/s  (since the tuck is at rest)

v₁ = final velocity of the car = 0m/s (since the car comes to a stop)

v₂ = final velocity of the truck

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

1500(15.0) + 4500(0) = 1500(0) + 4500(v₂)

22500 + 0 = 0 + 4500v₂

22500 = 4500v₂

Solve for v₂;

v₂ = \frac{22500}{4500}

v₂ = +5m/s

Therefore, the velocity at which the truck is moving is 5m/s and since this value is positive and south is taken as positive, the truck is moving south.

What kind of energy does a rubber band have when it is stretched?
RideAnS [48]
Elastic potential energy. When you stretch a rubber band it has the "potential" to do work, to fly in a given direction. In doing so it changes it's elastic potential energy to kinetic energy.

MARKING BRAINLIST | Which situation below would have the STRONGEST gravitational force between them?
maks197457 [2]

Case d) has the strongest gravitational force

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where :

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

a) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 2 kg

r = 30 km = 30,000 m

So the gravitational force is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(2)}{30000^2}=1.48\cdot 10^{-18}N

b) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 10 kg

r = 30 km = 30,000 m

So the gravitational force is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(10)}{30000^2}=7.41\cdot 10^{-18}N

c) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 2 kg

m2 = 2 kg

r = 10 km = 10,000 m

So the gravitational force is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(2)(2)}{10000^2}=1.33\cdot 10^{-17}N

d) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 10 kg

r = 10 km = 10,000 m

So the gravitational force is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(10)}{10000^2}=6.67\cdot 10^{-17}N

Therefore, the  strongest gravitational force is in case d).

What support system do you have in place to complete your scheduled exercises? How and why did you
Bingel [31]

Answer:

It has to be important to you.

-It has to be something that you are in control of.

-It has to be attainable, or able to be achieved.

-It has to be clear and specific.

-It has to have a plan.

Wellness

Wellness refers to a healthy state of being in body, mind, and emotion.

Body wellness

means eating right, exercising, and keeping your bodily systems in good health.

Mental wellness

means feeling safe and secure in your environment and at peace with your decisions and actions.

Emotional wellness

means feeling your best and having the ability to deal with many different situations.

Wellness: Setting Goals

The first step to setting a goal is defining it. Keep in mind that not everything you wish for can be a goal. When it comes to physical activity, diet, and exercise, you may wish to run a marathon before the end of the school year. However, this goal could be difficult to achieve if school ends in just a few months and you are not already training. A more reasonable goal might be to be able to run a mile in the amount of time considered healthy for your age group.

Importance of Physical Education

Physical education explores the methods, types, and benefits of physical activity for the body. In addition to staying active, making healthy choices about diet and exercise is important to overall personal and long-term health. Long-term health passed down through generations can also promote healthy family lifestyles.

Fitness

is the ability of the body to function effectively and efficiently during physical activity and is the ability to move joints through an entire range of motion.

Physical exercise

is the act of improving one's body through specific intentional movements.

differences between exercise and fitness

while anyone can exercise, only someone who exercises regularly can be fit.

Why is it important to make healthy choices about your diet and exercise?

Choosing healthy behaviors when it comes to diet and exercise is important to personal health, long-term health, and promoting healthy family lifestyles.

five components of physical education:

-Cardiorespiratory endurance

-Muscular strength

-Muscular endurance

-Flexibility

-Body composition
