You are at the carnival with you your little brother and you decide to ride the bumper cars for fun. You each get in a different
Aliun [14]

Answer:

<em>a) The equation is </em>(m_{b}+m_{c} )u_{b} = (m_{y}+m_{c} )v_{y} +  (m_{b}+m_{c} )v_{b}

<em>b) Your velocity after collision is 2.64 m/s</em>

<em>c) The force you felt is 7392 N</em>

<em>d) you and your brother undergo an equal amount of acceleration</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Your mass m_{y} = 60 kg

your brother's mass m_{b} = 30 kg

mass of the car m_{c} = 80 kg

your initial speed u_{y} = 0 m/s (since you've not started moving yet)

your brother's initial velocity u_{b} = 3 m/s

your final speed v_{y} after collision = ?

your brother's final speed v_{b} after collision = ?

a) equations you need to use to figure out how fast you and your brother are moving after the collision is

(m_{y}+m_{c} )u_{y} + (m_{b}+m_{c} )u_{b} = (m_{y}+m_{c} )v_{y} +  (m_{b}+m_{c} )v_{b}

but u_{y} = 0 m/s

the equation reduces to

(m_{b}+m_{c} )u_{b} = (m_{y}+m_{c} )v_{y} +  (m_{b}+m_{c} )v_{b}

b) if your little brother reverses with velocity of 0.36 m/s it means

v_{b} = -0.36 m/s (the reverse means it travels in the opposite direction)

then, imputing values into the equation, we'll have

(m_{b}+m_{c} )u_{b} = (m_{y}+m_{c} )v_{y} +  (m_{b}+m_{c} )v_{b}

(30 + 80)3 = (60 + 80)v_{y} + (30 + 80)(-0.36)

330 = 140v_{y} - 39.6

369.6 = 140v_{y}

v_{y} = 369.6/140 = <em>2.64 m/s</em>

This means you will also reverse with a velocity of 2.64 m/s

c) your initial momentum = 0  since you started from rest

your final momentum = (total mass) x (final velocity)

==>  (60 + 80) x 2.64 = 369.6 kg-m/s

If the collision lasted for 0.05 s,

then force exerted on you = (change in momentum) ÷ (time collision lasted)

force on you = ( 369.6 - 0) ÷ 0.05 =<em> 7392 N</em>

<em></em>

d) you changed velocity from 0 m/s to 2.64 m/s in 0.05 s

your acceleration is (2.64 - 0)/0.05 = 52.8 m/s^2

your brother changed velocity from 3 m/s to 0.36 m/s in 0.05 s

his deceleration is (3 - 0.36)/0.05 = 52.8 m/s

<em>you and your brother undergo an equal amount of acceleration. This is because you gained the momentum your brother lost</em>

The mass of this astronaut on the moon is 84kg. If the astronaut is on the moon for 3 weeks then returns home, his mass will be
saul85 [17]

Answer:

84kg

Explanation:

If the mass of an astronaut in on the moon is 84kg on the moon. After the 3weeks in returning home, his weight will not change. The mass of the astronaut will remain the same which is 84kg. This is so because the acceleration due to gravity experienced by the body remains the same both in the earth and in moon.
