6000 kg train moving 5 m/sec to east collides with 5000 kg train moving 3 m/sec to west. What is their velocity

Svetlanka [38]

The final velocity is 1.37 m/s east

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two trains must be conserved before and after the collision.

So we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 6000 kg$ is the mass of the first train

$u_1 = 5 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the first train (we take east as positive direction)

$m_2 = 5000 kg$ is the mass of the second train

$u_2 = -3 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the second train

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the two trains

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(6000)(5)+(5000)(-3)}{6000+5000}=1.37 m/s$

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is east.

A real object is 10.0 cm to the left of a thin, diverging lens having a focal length of magnitude 16.0 cm. What is the location

amm1812

Answer:

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}$

where

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the lens

In this problem, we have

$f=-16.0 cm$ (the focal length is negative for a diverging lens)

$p=10.0 cm$ is the distance of the object from the lens

Solvign the equation for q, we find

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{-16.0 cm}-\frac{1}{10.0 cm}=-0.163 cm^{-1}$

$q=\frac{1}{-0.163 cm^{-1}}=-6.15 cm$

And the sign (negative) means the image is on the left of the lens, because it is a virtual image, so the correct answer is

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens

A 50.0-kg block is being pulled up a 16.0Â° slope by a force of 250 n that is parallel to the slope. the coefficient of kinetic

Drupady [299]

When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
a = 2.84 m/s²
