Answer:

11,000 kg

(a) 11.2 m/s

(b) 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(2200 kg) (60.0 km/h) + m (0 km/h) = (2200 kg) (10 km/h) + m (10 km/h)

132,000 kg km/h = 22,000 kg km/h + m (10 km/h)

110,000 kg km/h = m (10 km/h)

m = 11,000 kg

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(m) (-v) + (2m) (5v) = (m) (v₁) + (2m) (v₂)

-mv + 10mv = m v₁ + 2m v₂

9mv = m (v₁ + 2 v₂)

9v = v₁ + 2 v₂

Since the collision is elastic, kinetic energy is also conserved.

½ m₁u₁² + ½ m₂u₂² = ½ m₁v₁² + ½ m₂v₂²

m₁u₁² + m₂u₂² = m₁v₁² + m₂v₂²

(m) (-v)² + (2m) (5v)² = m v₁² + (2m) v₂²

mv² + 50mv² = m v₁² + 2m v₂²

51mv² = m (v₁² + 2 v₂²)

51v² = v₁² + 2 v₂²

We know v = 1.60 m/s.  So the two equations are:

14.4 = v₁ + 2 v₂

130.56 = v₁² + 2 v₂²

Solve the system of equations using substitution.

130.56 = (14.4 − 2 v₂)² + 2 v₂²

130.56 = 207.36 − 57.6 v₂ + 4 v₂² + 2 v₂²

0 = 6 v₂² − 57.6 v₂ + 76.8

0 = v₂² − 9.6 v₂ + 12.8

v₂ = [ 9.6 ± √(9.6² − 4(1)(12.8)) ] / 2(1)

v₂ = 1.6 or 8

If v₂ = 1.6 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = 11.2 m/s.

If v₂ = 8 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = -1.6 m/s.

We know v₁ can't be -1.6 m/s, since that would mean puck A didn't change speeds after the collision.  Therefore, v₁ = 11.2 m/s and v₂ = 1.6 m/s.

True or false The momentum of a 100kg object traveling at 3 m/s is 300 N
melomori [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Momentum of an object can be defined as the product of its mass and velocity at which it is travelling. With that in mind, momentum = 3*100=300(kg⋅m/s).

One thing to note is the units mentioned. The SI unit of momentum is kg * m/s as it is the product of mass(kilograms) and velocity(meter per second) and not Newton.

The boiling point of water is 91.30 °C on the
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

196.34 °F

Explanation:

To convert from degrees celsius to degrees fahrenheit, use this equation:

(°C * 9/5) + 32 = °F

So, using this equation:

(91.30 * 9/5) + 32 = °F

196.34 + 32 = °F

°F = 196.34

Hope this helps!

I'm writing a story about Granny using old-fashioned laundry bluing to freshen dingy yellow clothes. I would like to explain WHY
Katena32 [7]

By combining blue with yellow light is like combining blue light with red and green light. The result of combining these three primary colors of light is to produce white light.

<h3>What is laundry bluing ?</h3>

Laundry bluing is a product adds a trace amount of blue dye to white fabric during laundering to improve its appearance.

Bluing products in higher concentrations can darken jeans and other blue cloth.

The blue overpowered the yellow to reflect white (at least the appearance of white to the human eye).

Blue and yellow are complementary colors that combine to reflect white, Fabrics.

Here,

Yellow light is a combination of red and green light. So combining blue with yellow light is like combining blue light with red and green light. The result of combining these three primary colors of light is to produce white light.
