wo lacrosse players collide in midair. Jeremy has a mass of 120 kg and is moving at a speed of 3 m/s. Hans has a mass of 140 kg

and is moving at a speed of –2 m/s. After the collision, they bounce away from each other, and Jeremy is moving at a speed of –2.5 m/s. How fast is Hans moving after the collision?

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

Mass of Jeremy is 120 kg (M_J)

Speed of Jeremy is 3 m/s (V_J)

Speed of Jeremy after collision is (V_{JA}) -2.5 m/s

Mass of Hans is 140 kg (M_H)

Speed of Hans is -2 m/s (V_H)

Speed of Hans after collision is (V_{HA})

Linear momentum is defined as “mass time’s speed of the vehicle”. Linear momentum before the collision of Jeremy and Hans is  

= =\mathrm{M}_{1} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{J}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{H}}

Substitute the given values,

= 120 × 3 + 140 × (-2)

= 360 + (-280)

= 80 kg m/s

Linear momentum after the collision of Jeremy and Hans is  

= =\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{J}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{JA}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{HA}}

= 120 × (-2.5) + 140 × V_{HA}

= -300 + 140 × V_{HA}

We know that conservation of liner momentum,

Linear momentum before the collision = Linear momentum after the collision

80 = -300 + 140 × V_{HA}

80 + 300 = 140 × V_{HA}

380 = 140 × V_{HA}

380/140= V_{HA}

V_{HA} = 2.71 m/s

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.

what is the average speed of (a) a car that travels 400m in 20s. and (b) an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes​
zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 20 m/s

b) 37.5 m)s

Explanation:

Average speed = total distance ÷ total time

=> (a) average speed of a car that travels 400m in 20s

= 400/20 = 20 m/s

& (b) average speed of an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes (or 4×60=240 seconds)

= 1500/240 = 37.5 m/s

The two cars collide at right angles in the intersection of two icy roads. Car A has a mass of 1965 kg and car B has a mass of 1
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

U2 = 47.38m/s = initial velocity of B before impact

Explanation:

An example of the diagram is shown in the attached file because of missing angle of direction in the question

Mass A, B are mass of cars

A = 1965

B =1245

U1 = initial velocity of A = 52km/hr

U2 = initial velocity of B

V = common final velocity of two cars

BU2 = (A + B)*V sin ¤ ...eq1 y plane

AU1 = (A + B) *V cos ¤ ....equ 2plane

From equ 2

V = AU1/(A + B)*cos ¤

Substitute V into equation 1

We have

U2 = (AU1/B)tan ¤ where ¤ = angle of direction which is taken to be 30°

Substitute all parameters to get

U2 = (1965/1245)*52 * tan 30°

U2 = 47.38m/s

What is the difference between speed and velocity?
ElenaW [278]
B - speed and direction are combined in another quantity, called velocity. It can be thought of as its speed in a particular direction. Speed is the corresponding scalar quantity, because it does not have a direction.

What is the equation for the potential energy stored in a spring when it is stretched or compressed?
gregori [183]

Answer:

if you stretch a spring with k = 2, with a force of 4N, the extension will be 2m. the work done by us here is 4x2=8J. in other words, the energy transferred to the spring is 8J. but, the stored energy in the spring equals 1/2x2x2^2=4J (which is half of the work done by us in stretching it).

Which law states that the pressure and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of gas are directly proportional under constant
Brrunno [24]

<u>Gay Lussac’s law</u> state that the pressure and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of a gas are directly proportional under constant volume conditions.  

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Gay-Lussac’s law  </h3>
  • It states that at constant volume, the pressure of an ideal gas I directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
  • Thus, an increase in pressure of an ideal gas at constant volume will result to an increase in the absolute temperature.
<h3>Boyles’s law   </h3>
  • This gas law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant absolute temperature.
  • Therefore, when the volume of an ideal gas is increased at constant temperature then the pressure of the gas will also increase.
<h3>Charles’s law </h3>
  • It states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature at constant pressure.
  • Therefore, an increase in volume of an ideal gas causes a corresponding increase in its absolute temperature and vice versa while the pressure is held constant.
<h3>Dalton’s law  </h3>
  • It is also known as the Dalton’s law of partial pressure. It states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is always equivalent to the total sum of the partial pressures of individual component gases.
  • Partial pressure refers to the pressure of an individual gas if it occupies the same volume as the mixture of gases.
