Answer:

A) 10 m/s

Explanation:

We know that according to conservation of momentum,

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1u1 + m2u2  ..............(equation 1)

where m1 and m2 are masses of two bodies, v1 and v2 are initial velocity before collision and u1 and u2 are final velocities after collision respectively.

From the given data

If truck and car are two bodies

truck :       m1 = 2000 Kg           v1 = 5 m/s                u1 = 0

car    :        m2 = 1000 kg           v2 = 0                      u2 = ?

final velocity of truck and initial velocity of car are static because the objects were at rest in the respective time.

substituting the values in equation 1, we get

(2000 x 5) + 0 = 0 + (1000 x u2)

u2 = \frac{2000}{1000} x 5

    = 10 m/s

Hence after collision, car moves at a velocity of 10 m/s

lana [24]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

You are missing the chart with the rates and time to do this, however, I wll do it with a similar exercise here, and you only need to replace the procedure with your data:

See the attached table.

From the left we have:

r = 1/2 (50 + 48 + 46 + 44 + 42 + 40) = 135 L/min

From the right we have:

r = 1/2 (48 + 46 +44 + 42 + 40 + 38) = 129 L/min.

And this should be the correct answer. Watch your chart and replace if it's neccesary.
