No, not exactly.  They jiggle and tremble and vibrate a lot, but
they always basically stay in very nearly the same place.

It's like if you're allowed to go anywhere you want in your jail cell,
you wouldn't exactly call that "moving about freely".

A 970-kg sports car collides into the rear end of a 2300-kg SUV stopped at a red light. The bumpers lock, the brakes are locked,
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

22.73 m/s or 81.72 kph

Explanation

We can find the combined mass of both cars as

970 kg + 2300 kg = 3270 kg.

Then the normal force of the cars can be calculated as

F(n)= mg

Where g is acceleration due to gravity 9.8m/s^2

3270 kg ×9.8 = 32046 kg*m/s^2.

coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and road to be 0.80 × F(n)

Then the frictional force can be calculated as

= (32046kg*m/s^2 × 0.80 )

= 25636.8 kg*m/s^2

We can now calculate the work done that was used stopping the cars as

Frictional force × distance

(25636.8 kg*m/s^2 ) × 2.9m= 74346.72kg*m^2/s^2

From kinetic energy formula, the combined velocity of the car can be determined

E=0.5 M V²

√(2E/M) = V

√(2*74346.72kg*m^2/s^2 / 3270 kg) = V

V= √ (45.472)

V=6.743293m/s

the momentum of both cars can be determined as

6.743293m/s * 3270 kg

= 22050.57kg*m/s

Now the final momentum of both cars must be equal to the the momentum of

the sports car just prior to the collision. Therefore, the speed of the sports car at impact.

=(22050.57 kg*m/s) / 970 kg = 22.73 m/s

We can convert that to km/h.

22.73 m/s * 3600 s/h / 1000 m/km = 81.72 kph

A spring stretches 1.68cm vertically when a 2.50kg object is suspended from it.Find the distance (in cm) the spring stretches if
Llana [10]

Answer:

2.96 cm

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)

 F = k × d

Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg

So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d

                                   2.5 ∝ 1.68  --------------(1)

                                   4.4 ∝ d'      --------------(2)

From (1) & (2),     4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68

                                   d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after
Delicious77 [7]
\Delta L=  \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248
