A 3 kg toy car with a speed of 7 m/s collides head-on with a 2 kg car traveling in the opposite direction with a speed of 5 m/s.

If the cars are locked together after the collision with a speed of 2.20 m/s, how much kinetic energy is lost?

Answers:

kinetic energy lost = 86.4J

Explanation:

let Kf be the kinetic energy after the collision and Ki be the kinetic energy before the collision. let the 3kg car be 1 and 2kg car be 2.

Kf = K1(f) + K2(f)

Ki = K1(i) + k2(i)

loss in kinetic energy = Kf - Ki

                                 = 1/2(3)(2.20)^2 + 1/2(2)(2.20)^2 - 1/2(3)(7)^2 - 1/2(2)(-5)^2

                                 = 12.1 - 98.5

                                 = -86.4 J

therefore, the kinetic energy lost in the collision is 86.4 J.

How much charge is on each plate of a 3.00-μF capacitor when it is connected toa 15.0-V battery? b) If this same capacitor is c
Sauron [17]

Answer:

(a) 45 micro coulomb

(b) 6 micro Coulomb

Explanation:

C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

V = 15 V

(a) q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 15 = 45 x 10^-6 C = 45 micro coulomb

(b)

V = 2 V, C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 2 = 6 x 10^-6 C = 6 micro coulomb

By what factor would your weight be multiplied if the earth were1/2 as massavise and the diameter was unchanged
Nutka1998 [239]
<span>Let F be the force of gravity, G be the gravitational constant, M be the mass of the earth, m your mass and r the radius of the earth, then: 

F = G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) 

The above expression gives the force that you feel on the earth's surface, as it is today! 

Let us now double the mass of the earth and decrease its diameter to half its original size. 

This is the same as replacing M with 2M and r with r/2. 

Now the gravitational force (F' ) on the new earth's surface is given by: 

F' = G(2Mm / (4(pi)(r/2)^2)) = 2G(Mm / ((1/4)*4(pi)*r^2)) = 8G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) = 8F 

So: 

F' = 8F 

This implies that the force that you would feel pulling you down (your weight) would increase by 800%! 

You would be 8 times heavier on this "new" earth!</span>

A 35 kg box rests on the back of a truck. The coefficient of static friction bet?005 (part 1 of 2)A 35 kg box rests on the back
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of box=35 kg

Coefficient of static friction between box and truck bed=0.202

Acceleration due to gravity=9.8 m/s^2

a.We have to find the force by which the box accelerates forward.

Force by which box accelerates=\mu mg=0.202\times 9.8\times 35

Force by which box accelerates=62.286 N

b.We have to find the maximum acceleration can the truck have before the box slides.

Force =friction force

ma=\mu mg

a=\mu g=9.8\times 0.202=1.9796 m/s^2

Hence, the truck can have maximum acceleration before the box slide=1.9796 m/s^2

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Because D is definitely true and there is only one false sentence what means if that non of B or C is false because if one is false so other one needs to be too.
