Recall that the blocks can only move along the x axis. the x components of their velocities at a certain moment are v1x and v2x.

find the x component of the velocity of the center of mass (vcm)x at that moment. keep in mind that, in general: vx=dx/dt. express your answer in terms of m1, m2, v1x, and v2x.

The center of mass is given with this formula:
x_c=\frac{\sum_{n=1}^{n=i}m_ix_i}{M}
Velocity is:
v=\frac{dv}{dt}
So, for the velocity of the center of mass we have:
\frac{dx_c}{dt}=\frac{\sum_{n=1}^{n=i}d(m_ix_i)}{Mdt}\\
v_c=\frac{\sum_{n=1}^{n=i}p_i}{M}\\
In our case it is:
v_{xc}=\frac{m_1v_{x1}+m_2v_{x2}}{m_1+m_2}

What two types of scientific knowledge can be expressed as mathematical equations? (Please don't tell me the answer could you pl
gtnhenbr [62]
An example would be 2 types of motion. It could be rectilinear or projectile motion. There are various equations for each type. Since you don't want me to tell you the answer, I could just express it in words. Then, it will be up to you to translate into mathematical equations.

For rectilinear motion, the distance traveled is equal to the initial velocity times the time, plus one-half of the acceleration times the square of the time. For projectile motion, the maximum distance is equal to the square of the initial velocity multiplied with the square of the sine of the launch angle, all over twice the gravity.

A 3874-kg rollercoaster is brought to the top of a 42m hill in 40 seconds,then drops 28m before the next hill.
Ede4ka [16]

(a) The work required to get the coaster to the top of the first hill is  1,594,538.4 J.

(b) The power required to bring the train to the top of the first hill is 39,863.46 W.

(c) The energy lost when the coaster drops is 531,512.8 J.

(d) The left at the bottom is determined as 1,063,025.6 J.

<h3>Work done to bring the rollercoaster top of the hill</h3>

W = Fn x d = mgh

W = 3874 x 9.8 x 42

W = 1,594,538.4 J

<h3>Power dissipated in bringing the rollercoaster on top hill</h3>

P = Fv

P = Fd/t

P = W/t

P = 1,594,538.4 /40 = 39,863.46 W

<h3>Energy lost when the coaster drops</h3>

E = 1,594,538.4 - (3874 x 9.8 x 28)

E = 531,512.8 J

<h3>Energy left at the bottom</h3>

E = 3874 x 9.8 x 28 = 1,063,025.6 J
