Two cars of the same mass collide at an intersection. Just before the collision, one car is traveling east at 80.0 km/h and the

other car is traveling south at 60.0 km/h. If the collision is completely inelastic, so the two cars move as one object after the collision, what is the speed of the cars immediately after the collision?

Answer:

v_{f}=70\frac{km}{h}

Explanation:

In a completely inelastic collision the momentum P is conserved, so can be expressed as:

P_{f}-P_{i}=0

As P is defined as: P=m.v

Replacing:

m_{1}.v_{1f}+m_{2}.v_{2f}=m_{1}.v_{1i}+m_{2}.v_{2i} (Eq. 1)

As the problem says that the two cars have the same mass:

m_{1}=m_{2}=m

And in a completely inelastic collision the velocities after the collision are equal, so:

v_{1f}=v_{2f}=v_{f}

So replacing in Eq. 1:

m.v_{f}+m.v_{f}=m.v_{1i}+m.v_{2i}

2m.v_{f}=m.(v_{1i}+v_{2i})

Solving for v_{f}:

v_{f}=\frac{(v_{1i}+v_{2i})}{2}

And replacing the values for the velocity:

v_{f}=\frac{(80.0\frac{km}{h}+60.0\frac{km}{h})}{2}

v_{f}=70\frac{km}{h}

Here are the options.

A. channel

B. feedback

C. message

D. sender​

The correct option is C

MESSAGE.

Explanation:

It is message because it is written or verbal or recorded words or communication or ideas transmitted by the sender to the receiver.

It include three aspects, content, structure and style.

The content entails the information and communication, how the information is important, useful and can be read to comprehend.

The structure of a message entails the tone .

The style include how the sender compose and write the message.

A string is wrapped around a uniform disk of mass M = 1.2 kg and radius R = 0.07 m. (Recall that the moment of inertia of a unif
pentagon [3]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of disk = 1.2 kg

Radius = 0.07 m

Radius of rod = 0.11 m

Mass of small disk = 0.5 kg

Force = 29 N

Time t = 0.022 s

\theta=0.023\ m

Distance d= 0.039 m

(I). We need to calculate the speed of the apparatus

Using work energy theorem

W=\Delta K.E

Fd=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2Fd}{M+4m}}

Where, m = total mass

v = velocity

F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times29\times0.039}{1.2+4\times0.5}}

v=0.840\ m/s

(b). We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using formula of torque

\tau=I\alpha

F\times=(\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2+4mb^2)\alpha

29\times0.07=(\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.2\times0.07^2+4\times0.5\times0.11^2)\alpha

\alpha=\dfrac{29\times0.07}{0.02714}

\alpha=74.79\ rad/s^2

We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using equation of angular motion

\omega=\omega_{0}+\alpha t

Put the value into the formula

\omega=0+74.79\times0.022

\omega=1.645\ rad/s

(c).  We need to calculate the angular speed of the apparatus

Using equation of angular motion

\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2+2\alpha t

Put the value into the formula

\omega_{0}^2=1.645^2+2\times74.79\times0.022

\omega=2.44\ rad/s

Hence, This is required equation.

As a substance is changing from a liquid to a gas, the distance
bonufazy [111]

As a substance is changing from a liquid to a gas, the distance between its molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same.

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The external energy required to change from one state to another is mostly considered as temperature. So on increase in temperature, the solid changes to liquid and the liquid changes to gases. But the temperature remains constant in the system after changing the phase.

This is because when the temperature is increased on a liquid system, the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and thus the molecules will be distanced from each other. If we consider liquid - gas phase transition, the gas molecules are farther distanced compared to liquid molecules.

So the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and also to provide the kinetic energy to the gas molecules as they are tend to move more freely compared to liquid. Thus, the distance between the molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same on changing from liquid to gas.

3. As the duration of a maximal effort increases from 10 seconds or less to between 10 and 180 seconds, what factor becomes limi
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Anaerobic energy

Explanation:

Anaerobic energy is produced at maximal effort within a very short period, anaerobic energy is energy produced when effort is expended at quick bursts and usually less than 10 seconds.

Therefore, if maximal effort time is increased beyond 10 seconds, the energy produced is not anaerobic and as such, anaerobic energy is limited.
