Roman55 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The cartilage is the structure that reduces friction between joints.

Explanation:

Cartilage is the tissue between the bone joints. They are composed of several membranes and cellular groups. One of them called synovial membrane which provides lubricant to the edges of tissue that are touched by the bones. Reducing the friction and absorbing it so the body can move without obstacles.

A 30,000-kg freight car is coasting at 0.850 m/s with negligible friction under a hopper that dumps 110,000 kg of scrap metal in
erica [24]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a freight car, m_1=30,000-kg

Speed of a freight car, u_1=0.85\ m/s

Mass of a scrap metal, m_2=110,000\ kg

(a) Let us assume that the final velocity of the loaded freight car is V. The momentum of the system will remain conserved as follows :

30000\times 0.85=(30000+110000)V\\\\V=\dfrac{30000\times 0.85}{30000+110000}\\\\=0.182\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the loaded freight car is 0.182 m/s.

(b) Lost on kinetic energy = final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy

\Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}[(m_1+m_2)V^2-m_1u_1^2)]\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times [(30,000+110,000 )0.182^2-30000(0.85)^2]\\\\=-8518.82\ J

Lost in kinetic energy is 8518.82. Negative sign shows loss.

Explain how soilds non metals are different from solid metals
marysya [2.9K]
Solid metal is all different types of metals or some thing that a magnet can pick up that's a full hard solid

but a non metal is everything not metal that's a solid like plastic a hot glue gun can burn throught plastic and not metal

so in conclusion metal is stronger and thicker than non modal things
