During a collision, a bus runs into a skateboarder inelastically. If the mass of the skateboarders is 70 kg and is moving at 12

m/s to the right, what is the final velocity of the skateboarder if the 2000 kg bus is traveling at 25 m/s to the left before the collision?

The final velocity of the skateboarder is 23.75 m/s.

We can use conservation of momentum to calculate the magnitude of the final velocity.

Momentum before collision is equal to the momentum after collision

m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)v

here, v is final velocity of the skateboarder, assuming right side velocity as positive, and left side velocity as negative.

70*12+2000*(-25)=(70+2000)v

v=-23.75 m/s

Here, negative sign indicates that both skyboarder and bus will move in left direction.

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

F = m a = m v / t       where v is the change in velocity in time t

F = p / t       since m v is equal to p

F = 2.2 (kg m / s) / 1.1 s = 2 kg-m / s^2 = 2 N

Or you can use the impulse equation

The temperature of a room is 77°F what would be the temperature in Celsius scale​
anygoal [31]

Formulas change from F to degree C : C = ( F - 32 )/1.8

so we have (77-32)/1.8 = 25 oC

ok done. Thank to me :>
