Professional Application: A 30,000-kg freight car is coasting at 0.850 m/s with negligible friction under a hopper that dumps 11

0,000 kg of scrap metal into it. (a) What is the final velocity of the loaded freight car?

Nataliya [291]3 years ago

Answer:

0.182 m/s

Explanation:

m1 = 30,000 kg, m2 = 110,000 kg, u1 = 0.85 m/s

let the velocity of loaded freight car is v

Use the conservation of momentum

m1 x u1 + m2 x 0 = (m1 + m2) x v

30,000 x 0.85 = (30,000 + 110,000) x v

v = 0.182 m/s

A 30 ton rail car and a 90 ton rail car, initially at rest,are connected together with a giant but massless compressed springbet
Liula [17]

Answer:

V2 = 1.33m/s

Explanation:

M1 = 30 ton

M2 = 90 ton

V1 = 4 m/s

V2 = ?

Assumption: momentum conserved, no friction

initial momentum = final momentum = 0  

momentum : p = MV

(M1*V1) - (M2*V2) = 0

V2 = (30*4)/90 = 1.33m/s

What is the maximum speed with which a 1200-kg car can round a turn of radius 90.0 m on a flat road if the coefficient of static
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

78.6m/s

Explanation:

We know that frictional force also contributes to the centripetal force that keeps the car in circular motion in the turn

And is given as

F= mv²/r

But the frictional force is

F= ugm

= = 0.7*1200*9.8= 8232N

To find maximum velocity v we say

V= √F x r/m

= √ 8232* 90 /1200

= 78.6m/s

2. Yes it is independent of mass of car
