Bambi is walking along the train tracks when he suddenly notices a fast approaching train and freezes in his tracks like a deer

in headlights. IF the 1000kg train collides with Bambi at a speed of 8 m/s, and Bambi, who weighs 75kg, gets stuck to the front of the train, how fast will the train and Bambi continue to move after the collision

Answer:

The final speed of the train and Bambi after collision is 7.44 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the train, m₁ = 1000kg

mass of  Bambi, m₂ = 75kg

initial speed of the train, u₁ =  8 m/s

initial speed of Bambi, u₂ =  0 m/s

If Bambi gets stuck to the front of the train, then the collision is inelastic.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final speed of the train and Bambi after collision

Substitute the given values and solve for v

1000 x 8 + 75 x 0 = v (1000 + 75)

8000 = v (1075)

v = 8000/1075

v = 7.44 m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the train and Bambi after collision is 7.44 m/s

raketka [301]

Answer:

We know the information about atomic size, energy, electronic configuration etc. of atom from the periodic table.    

Explanation:

  • Periodic table is the arrangement of elements that are arranged according to their properties and electronic configuration.
  • In periodic table, on furthest right side of the periodic table, noble gases like He, Ne, Ar etc are arranged.
  • The atomic number of element increases while moving from left towards right in the periodic table.
  • The metallic character of element decreases as we proceed the table towards right.
  • They readily accept electron to fill the valence shell hence becoming more metallic in character.

Eddi Din [679]

Explanation:

In recent times of pandemic, robots can be use as replacement of labor in the industries. Mundane tasks can be programmed in their system so that they can used readily.

Drones can used delivery for essential goods and services, so that human interference can be least and the spread of virus can be curbed.

A mass is oscillating with amplitude A at the end of a spring.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

A) x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

The total energy of the system is equal to the maximum elastic potential energy, that is achieved when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (x=A):

E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 (1)

where k is the spring constant.

The total energy, which is conserved, at any other point of the motion is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2 (2)

where x is the displacement, m the mass, and v the speed.

We want to know the displacement x at which the elastic potential energy is 1/3 of the kinetic energy:

U=\frac{1}{3}K

Using (2) we can rewrite this as

U=\frac{1}{3}(E-U)=\frac{1}{3}E-\frac{1}{3}U\\U=\frac{E}{4}

And using (1), we find

U=\frac{E}{4}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}kA^2}{4}=\frac{1}{8}kA^2

Substituting U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 into the last equation, we find the value of x:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{8}kA^2\\x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

B) x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

In this case, the kinetic energy is 1/10 of the total energy:

K=\frac{1}{10}E

Since we have

K=E-U

we can write

E-U=\frac{1}{10}E\\U=\frac{9}{10}E

And so we find:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{9}{10}(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=\frac{9}{20}kA^2\\x^2 = \frac{9}{10}A^2\\x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

An object at rest cannot remain at rest unless which of the following holds?View Available Hint(s)An object at rest cannot remai
Leni [432]

Answer:

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

Explanation:

In order to analyze the statements of this problem we propose your solution.

First let's look at Newton's first, which stable that every object is at rest or with constant speed unless something takes it out of this state (acceleration)

Now let's look at the second postulate, which says that force is related to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration.

As a result of these two laws, for a body is a constant velocity the summation force on it must be zero.

Now we can analyze the statements given.

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

False. If the force is different from zero, there is acceleration that changes the speeds

False. There may be forces, but the sum of them must be zero

False. If a force acts, the acceleration is different from zero and the speed changes

Use newton's third law to explain why a blown up balloon but untied balloon will fly around the room when you let it go? really
den301095 [7]
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The balloon travels in the opposite direction as the air escaping from it. So when gas is released from the balloon it pushes against the outside air and the outside air pushes back. As a result of this the rocket is propelled forward by the opposing force. This opposing force is thrust. 

Hope this helps!
