Answer:

It is easy enough unless held by a machine.

Explanation:

This is because once your head gets below the sand you automatically suffocate and the more you move the more you sink meaning unless rescued by a machine you won't survive. Also when suffocating your brain sends a signal to try and breathe so you squirm to get free wich makes you sink even further. You will suffocate before anyone gets to you more than likely. Otherwise the sand fills your nostrils and lungs and if eye's are open they star to be very painful because the sand is very packed and the pressure will damage your eyes very bad.

A freight car moves along a friction less level railroad track at constant speed. The car is open on top. A large load of coal i

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the freight car decreases.

Explanation:

This question is answered by the conservation of momentum principle.

When the freight car is moving at a certain speed, it has a constant momentum.

We will call this M1.

The equation for M1 will be:

M1 = Mass * Speed

Now when the coal is dumped into the freight car, the Mass increases.

Since conservation of momentum states that the momentum will remain the same. We have:

M1 = (Mass of freight + Mass of coal) * Speed

Since M1 is constant, if the mass increases, the speed had to decrease to keep the equation true.

A 16.0kg canoe moving to the left at 12.5m/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 14.0kg raft moving to the right at 16.0m/

kherson [118]

The canoe is moving at 14.1 m/s to the right after the collision.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum, in absence of external forces the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision. So we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2$

where:

$m_1 = 16.0 kg$ is the mass of the canoe

$u_1 = -12.5 m/s$ is the initial velocity of canoe (we take right as positive direction, and since the canoe is moving to the left, its velocity is negative)
