Six automobiles are initially traveling at the indicated velocities. The automobiles have different masses and velocities. The d

rivers step on the brakes and all automobiles are brought to rest.
Car A: 500 kg, 10 m/s,
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.
(a) Rank these automobiles based on the magnitude of their momentum before the brakes are applied, from largest to smallest.
(b) Rank these automobiles based on the magnitude of the impulse needed to stop them, from largest to smallest.

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

In this image of Earth and the Moon from the Sim, what does the circle around Earth represent?
lidiya [134]

Answer: This is the orbit (of the moon around Earth).

An orbit is a circular/oval path that planets, moons, comets, etc follow with a "subject" in the middle. In this case, the circle is the orbit of the moon around Earth.

A rabbit is moving in the positive x-direction at 1.10 m/s when it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of 10.9 m/s al
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

aₓ = 0 ,       ay = -6.8125 m / s²

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve with kinematics equations.

Initially the rabbit moves on the x axis with a speed of 1.10 m / s and after seeing the predator acceleration on the y axis, therefore its speed on the x axis remains constant.

x axis

          vₓ = v₀ₓ = 1.10 m / s

          aₓ = 0

y axis

initially it has no speed, so v₀_y = 0 and when I see the predator it accelerates, until it reaches the speed of 10.6 m / s in a time of t = 1.60 s. let's calculate the acceleration

         v_{y}= v_{oy} -ay t

          ay = (v_{oy} -v_{y}) / t

          ay = (0 -10.9) / 1.6

          ay = -6.8125 m / s²

the sign indicates that the acceleration goes in the negative direction of the y axis

A glider with mass 0.24 kg sits on a frictionless horizontal air track, connected to a spring of negligible mass with force cons
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

v=2.556m/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of mechanical energy

K_{E1}+U_1=K_{E2}+U_2

\frac{1}{2}m*v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_1^2=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_2^2

x_2=0.08m

v_1=0 m/s

Solve to velocity v2

m*v_2^2=k*x_1^2-k*x_2^2

v^2=\frac{k}{m}*(x_1^2-x_2^2)

v^2=\frac{5.5N/m}{0.24kg}*(0.54m^2-0.080^2)

v=\sqrt{6.54m^2/s^2}=2.556m/s
