A regular relflection

The water would have a regular reflection because there is nothing making the reflection look distorted.

<span>We know that the momentum keeps constant in a inelastic collisions, so the product of mass and speed do not change:
m1 * v1 + m2 * v2 = m * v
1 * 1 + 5 * 0 = (1 + 5) * v
1 = 6 * v
v = 1/6 m/s
So the final speed of the 6 kg chunk will travel at 0.167 m/s</span>

HELP! FOR A TEST!

Answer:

<h3>On a velocity vs time graph the slope of the line represents the acceleration of the object. With a slope of zero, the object is moving at a constant velocity in the positive (+) direction during this five minute interval. ... Displacement and distance can both be determine on a velocity vs.</h3>

If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h in 3.0 s, what is the magnitude of its acceleration, ass

mixas84 [53]

Answer: $3.874 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

Car speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h

in 3 sec

$60mi/h \approx 26.8224m/s$

$34mi/h \approx 15.1994 m/s$

we know acceleration is given by $=\frac{velocity}{Time}$

$a=\frac{15.1994-26.8224}{3}$

$a=-3.874 m/s^2$

negative indicates that it is stopping the car

Distance traveled

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$\left ( 15.1994\right )^2-\left ( 26.8224\right )^2=2\left ( -3.874\right )s$

$s=\frac{488.419}{2\times 3.874}$

s=63.038 m

A car of 900 kg mass is moving at the velocity of 60 km/hr. It is brought into rest at 50 meter distance by applying a brake. No

kozerog [31]

Answer: $-2502N$

Explanation:

$(V_2)^2=(V_1)^2+2ad$

where;

$V_2$ = final velocity = 0

$V_1$ = initial velocity = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

$a$ = acceleration

$d$ = distance

First all of, because acceleration is given in m/s and not km/h, you need to convert 60km/h to m/s. Our conversion factors here are 1km = 1000m and 1h = 3600s

$60km/h(\frac{1000m}{1km} )(\frac{1h}{3600s} )=16.67m/s$
