Answer:
2.06 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal. Considering this case where we have frictionless surface, no momentum is lost in the process.
Momentum before collision
Momentum is given by p=mv where m and v represent mass. The initial sum of momentum will be 9v+(27*0.5)=9v+13.5
Momentum after collision
The momentum after collision will be given by (9+27)*0.9=32.4
Relating the two then 9v+13.5=32.4
9v=18.5
V=2.055555555555555555555555555555555555555 m/s
Rounded off, v is approximately 2.06 m/s
Speed can never be negative because it does not depend in which direction the car moves whereas, velocity will change if a car turns from due North to East.
Quantities which can be described only by their magnitudes are called scalars and those which are described by both, magnitude and direction are vectors
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.
As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.
The momentum of the car is 4.4x10^3 kg•m/sec
Answer:
2.5 ms⁻²
Explanation:
By Newton's 2nd law,
The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the unbalance force applied on the object,
By that you can get the equation,
F = ma ⇒ a = F/m
where terms are in usual meaning
a = 3750/1500 = 2.5 ms⁻²
