Answer:

3.38 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of child = m₁ = 25

Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s

Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg

Velocity of cart with child on top = v

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25\times 5+12\times 0}{25+12}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{125}{37}\\\Rightarrow v=3.38\ m/s

Velocity of cart with child on top is 3.38 m/s

Why do you think this appeal system is necessary in the legal system?
MatroZZZ [7]

Appeal system enables the higher court to review the case once again. Possible situation for appeal arises when the defendant consider punishment very tough.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Appeal system is very important in the legal system. Appeal means a process which helps in reviewing the cases. In case of the appeal, a request is made to a higher court to look into the case once again.

This process helps those who feel that the earlier judgment in case of the case was not correct.

The Possible situation where someone needs to appeal is when the defendant is found guilty and we feel that the punishment given is very harsh. This is possible mostly in criminal cases.

The aircraft wing from problem 6 experiences temperature extremes that span 210 degrees Celsius. The component for the wing will
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

α = 2,857 10⁻⁵ ºC⁻¹

Explanation:

The thermal expansion of materials is described by the expression

          ΔL = α Lo ΔT

          α = \frac{\Delta L}{L_o \ \Delta T}

in the case of the bar the expansion is

         ΔL = L_f - L₀

         ΔL=   1.002 -1

         ΔL = 0.002 m

the temperature variation is

         ΔT = 100 - 30

         ΔT = 70º C

we calculate

         α = 0.002 / 1 70

         α = 2,857 10⁻⁵ ºC⁻¹
