A student blows up a balloon and then places it in a very cold freezer. After a few hours, the balloon has shrunk. Which of the

following best explains why the balloon shrunk? A. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules gain energy and move closer together, causing the balloon to shrink. B. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules lose energy and move closer together causing the balloon to shrink. C. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules break apart, decreasing the volume of the gas. D. As the balloon absorbs energy, the molecules move more quickly, making the balloon expand.

A 1 200-kg car traveling initially at vCi 5 25.0 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 000-kg truck moving i
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The velocity of the truck after the collision is 20.93 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of car, m₁ = 1200 kg

Initial velocity of the car, v_{Ci}=25\ m/s

Mass of truck, m₂ = 9000 kg

Initial velocity of the truck, v_{Ti}=20\ m/s

After the collision, velocity of the car, v_{Cf}=18\ m/s

Let v is the velocity of the truck immediately after the collision. The momentum of the system remains conversed.

initial\ momentum=final\ momentum

1200\ kg\times 25\ m/s+9000\ kg\times 20\ m/s=1200\ kg\times 18+9000\ kg\times v

210000-21600=9000\ kg\times v

v=20.93\ m/s

So, the velocity of the truck after the collision is 20.93 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 240 g toy car is placed on a narrow 60-cm-diameter track with wheel grooves that keep the car going in a circle. The 1.0 kg tr
lesya [120]

Answer:

The track's angular velocity is W2 = 4.15 in rpm

Explanation:

Momentum angular can be find

I = m*r^2

P = I*W

So to use the conservation

P1 + P2 = 0

I1*W1 + I2*W2 = 0

Solve to w2 to find the angular velocity

0.240kg*0.30m^2*0.79m/s=-1kg*0.30m^2*W2

W2 = 0.435 rad/s

W2 = 4.15 rpm
