A 1400.0 kg car crests a 3200.0 m pass in the mountains and briefly comes to rest. The car descends 1000 m before climbing and c

resting a 2800 m pass. (a) Neglecting friction, what should the speed of the car be at the top of the second pass? (b) Find the actual speed of the car if the work due to nonconservative forces is – 5 x106 J.

Answer:

a) v = 88.54 m/s

b) vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 1400.0 kg

a)

by using the energy conservation

loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²

so

1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²

5488000 = 700v²

v² = 5488000 / 700

v² = 7840

v = √7840

v = 88.54 m/s

b)

Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE

W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)

we substitute

1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf²  -0 )

488000 = 700 vf²

vf² = 488000 / 700

vf² = 697.1428

vf = √697.1428

vf = 26.4 m/s

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker
DIA [1.3K]
<u>Momentum</u> 
- a vector quantity; has both magnitude and direction
- has the same direction as object's velocity
- can be represented by components x & y.

Find linebacker momentum given m₁ = 120kg, v₁ = 8.6 m/s north
P₁ = m₁v₁
P₁ = (120)(8.6)
[ P₁ = 1032 kg·m/s ] = y-component, linebacker momentum

Find halfback momentum given m₂ = 75kg, v₂ = 7.4 m/s east
P₂ = m₂v₂
P₂ = (75)(7.4)
[ P₂ = 555 kg·m/s ] = x-component, halfback momentum

Find total momentum using x and y components.
P = √(P₁)² + (P₂)²
P = √(1032)² + (555)²
[[ P = 1171.77 kg·m/s ]] = magnitude 

!! Finally, to find the magnitude of velocity, take the divide magnitude of momentum by the total mass of the players.
P = mv
P = (m₁ + m₂)v
1171.77 = (120 + 75)v      <em>[solve for v]</em>
<em />v = 1171.77/195
v = 6.0091 ≈ 6.0 m/s

If asked to find direction, take inverse tan of x and y components.
tanθ = (y/x)
θ = tan⁻¹(1032/555)
[ θ = 61.73° north of east. ]

The magnitude of the velocity at which the two players move together immediately after the collision is approximately 6.0 m/s.

What do you understand by ?efficiency of a machine is 70%​
tatuchka [14]

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine is 70% means 30% of the applied force is wasted in overcoming friction and 70% of the applied force is used to do the work

Yolanda is performing a neutralization reaction using hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide. Since both are clear liquids, what
Bad White [126]
I should think that Yolanda should use litmus paper throughout the reaction as its color will tell when the mixture is neutral and therefore then, when she can stop adding either the hydrochloric acid or the sodium hydroxide or if one or the other needs to be added to make the solution approach neutral. Blue litmus paper stays blue in a neutral solution, but will turn red in an acidic solution.
