Car B: 2000 kg, 5 m/s,
Car C: 500 kg, 20 m/s,
Car D: 1000 kg, 20 m/s,
Car E: 4000 kg, 5 m/s, and
Car F: 1000 kg, 10 m/s.

Answer:

a)Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

b)Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

Explanation:

Car A: mass = 500 kg; speed = 10 m/s

Car B: mass = 2000 kg;speed = 5 m/s

Car C:mass = 500 kg; speed = 20 m/s

Car D: mass = 1000 kg; speed = 20 m/s

Car E:mass = 4000 kg; speed = 5 m/s

Car F: mass = 1000 kg; speed = 10 m/s

Part a) Now we know that momentum of each car is product of mass and velocity , so we will have

<em>CarA:</em>

P_1 = m \times v\\P_1 = (500)(10)\\P_1 = 5 \times 10^3 kg m/s

<em>Car B:</em>

P_2 = m v\\P_2 = (2000)(5)\\P_2 = 10^4 kg m/s

Car C:

P_3 = m v\\P_3 = (500)(20)\\P_3 = 10^4 kg m/s

Car D:

P_4 = m v\\P_4 = (1000)(20)\\P_4 = 2\times 10^4 kg m/s

Car E:

P_5 = m v\\P_5 = (4000)(5)\\P_5 = 2\times 10^4 kg m/s

Car F:

P_6 = m v\\P_6 = (1000)(10)\\P_6 = 10^4 kg m/s

So the momentum is given as ,

Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

Part b)Impulse is given as change in momentum so here we can say that final momentum of all the cars will be zero as they all stops and hence the impulse is same as initial momentum of the car

so the order of impulse from largest to least is given as

Car E = Car D  > (Car F = Car B = Car C) > Car A

A piano string having a mass per unit length of 5.00 g/m is under a tension of 1350 N. Determine the speed of transverse waves i
padilas [110]

Answer:

The speed of transverse waves in this string is 519.61 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass per unit length = 5.00 g/m

Tension = 1350 N

We need to calculate the speed of transverse waves in this string

Using formula of speed of the transverse waves

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

Where, \mu = mass per unit length

T = tension

Put the value into the formula

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{1350}{5.00\times10^{-3}}}

v =519.61\ m/s

Hence, The speed of transverse waves in this string is 519.61 m/s.

Swinging a golf club or baseball bat are examples of ______________ stretching.
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Static stretching is the answer.

Explanation:

Static stretching is the most common form that greatly improves flexibility. However, static stretches does little to contract the muscles needed to generate powerful golf swings. Dynamic stretches help improve your range of motion while reducing muscle stiffness.

Driving on asphalt roads entails very little rolling resistance, so most of the energy of the engine goes to overcoming air resi
Bad White [126]
A) Agreed. 
<span>b) Value agreed but units should be W (watts). </span>

<span>c) Here's one method... </span>

<span>15 miles = 24140 m </span>

<span>1 gallon of gasoline contains 1.4×10⁸ J. </span>

<span>So moving a distance of 24140m requires gasoline containing 1.4×10⁸ J </span>

<span>Therefore moving a distance of 1m requires gasoline containing 1.4×10⁸/24140 = 5800 J </span>

<span>Overcoming rolling resitance for 1m requires (useful) work = force x distance = 1000x1 = 1000J </span>

<span>So 5800J (in the gasoline) provides 1000J (overcoming rolling resistance) of useful work for each metre moved. </span>

<span>Efficiency = useful work/total energy supplied </span>
<span>= 1000/5800 </span>
<span>= 0.17 (=17%) </span>

Why construction is present near the bulb ​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The constriction causes the mercury column to break under tension, leaving a vacuum between the bottom of the column and that in the bulb, and the top of the column stays still at the position reached in the body - a "peak hold" system.
