A 328-kg car moving at 19.1 m/s in the + x direction hits from behind a second car moving at 13.0 m/s in the same direction. If

the second car has a mass of 790 kg and a speed of 15.1 m/s right after the collision, what is the velocity of the first car after this sudden collision?

Answer:

+14.0 m/s

Explanation:

we have mV + Mv = mU + Mu we solve for U = (mV + Mv - Mu)/m = (328*19.1 + 790*13 - 790*15.1)/328 = 14. Answer

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?

I know that its not the second law. I'm almost positive its the first one. Please let me know if I'm wrong. This sentence makes no sense when you put it with the third law. So, the first law is my guess...

We can't tell without more information. We know it will be higher than 40 and lower than 75, but we don't know exactly where it will settle. In order to work that out, we would need to know the volumes of the water and the cube, and WHAT metal the cube is made of.

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST FOR RIGHT ANSWER* How much current must be applied across a 60 Ω light bulb filament in order for it to co
sp2606 [1]

Answer: The current must be equal to \frac{\sqrt{33} }{6} amps, or ~0.9574 amps.

Explanation:

You can find the current in amperes using ohms and watts from this formula:

I = \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }

Where P represents power in watts, R represents resistance in ohms, and I represents current in amperes.

You can then substitute 60 and 55 into the equation to find I:

I = \sqrt{\frac{55}{60} } \\I = \frac{\sqrt{55} }{\sqrt{60} }

Then, simplify the denominator:

I = \frac{\sqrt{55} }{2\sqrt{15} }

Rationalize the denominator:

I = \frac{\sqrt{55} }{2\sqrt{15} } * \frac{\sqrt{15} }{\sqrt{15} } = \frac{\sqrt{825} }{30}

Simplify the numerator by finding its factors:

I = \frac{5\sqrt{33} }{30} = \frac{\sqrt{33} }{6}

The current must be equal to \frac{\sqrt{33} }{6} amps, or ~0.9574 amps.

Consider two copper wires with circular cross-sections and equal lengths. one wire has 3 times the diameter of the other. How do
Masteriza [31]

The correct option is (C)  The longer wire has 3 times the resistance of the shorter wire.

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit.

Why do circuits need resistance?

Using ohms (Ω) as the unit, resistance acts as a gauge to quantify how easily current will flow through a circuit. When resistance falls, current rises, and when resistance rises, current falls. In order to make sure that current flows in circuits at the proper rate, resistors are crucial.

How can resistance be determined in a circuit?

By applying Ohm's Law, you can get the total resistance if you know the total current and voltage through the entire circuit: R = V / I. A parallel circuit, for instance, has a voltage of 9 volts and a combined current of 3 amps. Total resistance (RT) is equal to 9 volts / 3 amps, or 3.

A child is riding a merry-go-round that has an instantaneous angular speed of 12 rpm. If a constant friction torque of 12.5 Nm i
sammy [17]

Answer:

-0.25 rad/s^2

Explanation:

The equivalent of Newton's second law for rotational motions is:

\tau = I \alpha

where

\tau is the net torque applied to the object

I is the moment of inertia

\alpha is the angular acceleration

In this problem we have:

\tau = -12.5 Nm (net torque, with a negative sign since it is a friction torque, so it acts in the opposite direction as the motion)

I=50.0 kg m^2 is the moment of inertia

Solving for \alpha, we find the angular acceleration:

\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}=\frac{-12.5 Nm}{50.0 kg m^2}=-0.25 rad/s^2
