Answer:

Final velocity of the combining cars = 10m/s

combined momentum = 40000kgm/s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of both colliding cars = 2000kg

Initial Velocity of car 1 (U1) = 0

Initial Velocity of car 2 (U2) = 20m/s

Combuned momentum after collision =?

This is an inelastic collision which is calculated thus :

M1U1 + M2U2 = M1V + M2V

M1U1 + M2U2 = (M1 + M2) V

Where V = "final Velocity of the colliding bodies

2000 × 0 + 2000 × 20 = (2000 + 2000) V

0 + 40000 = 4000V

V = 40000 / 4000

V = 10m/s

Therefore combined momentum = (M1 + M2) V

(2000 + 2000) 10

4000(10) = 40000kgm/s

Answer:

Period is 86811.5 seconds.

Explanation:

{ \boxed{ \bf{T {}^{2} =  (\frac{4 {\pi}^{2} }{GM}) {r}^{3}   }}}

{ \tt{T {}^{2}  =  \frac{4 {(3.14)}^{2} }{(6.6 \times  {10}^{ - 11} ) \times (5.98 \times  {10}^{24} )} \times  {((35880\times  {10}^{3}) } + (6370 \times  {10}^{3} )) {}^{3}   }} \\  \\ { \tt{T {}^{2}  =  7.54 \times {10}^{9} }} \\ { \tt{T =  \sqrt{7.54 \times  {10}^{9} } }} \\ { \tt{T = 86811.5 \: seconds}}

Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 525 nm appears as green light to the human eye. Calculate the frequency of this l
12345 [234]

Answer:

5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the electromagnetic radiation, λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: λ = 525 nm = 5.25×10⁻⁷ m,

Constant: Speed of electromagnetic wave (v) = 3.0×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.0×10⁸)/(5.25×10⁻⁷)

f = 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Hence the frequency of light is 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

What's needed to know
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
You're a little late.  But if you want some short, quick rules, then these are
a couple that I would take in with me (stored only in my brain, of course):

-- If something is not accelerating or moving at all, then all the forces on it
must add up to zero.    That could even mean a hanging rope.

-- In a vertical rope, the tension in it is the same everywhere in the rope.
The tension is the weight of whatever is hanging from the bottom.

That's really all I'm sure of, based on your hazy, fuzzy description of
what you've been doing in class.  I don't want to get into things that
you might not have learned yet, and confuse you.
