A car of mass 775 kg traveling at a velocity of 30 m/s in the positive x-direction crashes into the rear of a truck of mass 1,47

5 kg that is at rest and in neutral at an intersection. If the collision is inelastic and the truck moves forward at 11.9 m/s, what is the velocity of the car after the collision? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Assume the collision is head-on so that the motion of both vehicles remains entirely along the x-direction)

Answer:

velocity of the car is 7.3516 m/s

Explanation:

M1v1a + m2v1b = m1v2a + m2v2b

775*30 + 1475*0 = 775*v2a+1475*11.9

Let v2a be x

23250 + 0 = 775x + 17552.5

775x = 23250-17552.5

775x = 5697.5

X = 7.3516 m/s

Which of the following statements correctly describes the position of the intake and exhaust valves during most of the power sta
I am Lyosha [343]

Both valves are closed during the power stroke.

While the fuel is burning in the cylinder, you want
all the force of the expanding gases to push the
piston down ... you don't want any of the gases
or their pressure escaping. 

If either of the valves was open, even just a crack,
then part of the gases would go blooey out the valve,
and some pressure would be lost that's supposed to be
pushing the piston.

A short-wave radio antenna is supported by two guy wires, 155 ft and 175 ft long. Each wire is attached to the top of the antenn
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

163.8 ft

Explanation:

In triangle ABD

AB = 155 ft

Cos63 = \frac{BD}{AB} = \frac{BD}{155}\\BD = 155 Cos63 \\BD = 70.4 ft

Sin63 = \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{AD}{155} \\AD = 166 Sin63\\AD = 148 ft

Using Pythagorean theorem in triangle ADC

AC^{2} = AD^{2} + DC^{2} \\175^{2} = 148^{2} + DC^{2} \\DC = 93.4 ft

d = distance between the anchor points

distance between the anchor points is given as

d = BD + CD = 70.4 + 93.4\\d = 163.8 ft

An inductor is connected in series to a fully charged capacitor. Which of the following statements are true? Check all that appl
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

As the capacitor is discharging, the current is increasing

Explanation:

Lets take

C= Capacitance

L=Inductance

V=Voltage

I= Current

The total energy E given as

E=\dfrac{IL^2}{2}+\dfrac{CV^2}{2}

We know that total energy E is conserved so when electric energy 1/2 CV² decreases then magnetic energy 1/2 IL²  will increases.

It means that when charge on the capacitor decreases then the current will increase.

As the capacitor is discharging, the current is increasing
