<span>The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg.
The key here is the conservation of momentum.
For the first truck, the momentum is
0(5100 + 4300)
The second truck has a starting momentum of
60(5100 + x)
And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other.
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Getting rid of the zero term
60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Distribute the 60 and the 42.
60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x
306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x
Subtract 42x from both sides
306000 + 18x = 609000
Subtract 306000 from both sides
18x = 303000
And divide both sides by 18
x = 16833.33
So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums.
60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000
They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.</span>
Answer:
Sugar in coffee dissolves.
Explanation:
In this case we have a solution, which is defined as separating what was bound in some way, by homogeneously mixing the molecules of a substance into a liquid. Therefore, it is the resulting homogeneous mixture after dissolving any substance in a liquid.

Answer:
A person climbs a set of stairs
Explanation:
Potential energy is said to be possessed by an object due to its position. As the height from the ground level increase, the potential energy increases. It is calculated by the below formula as :
P = mgh
Out of the given options, the option that illustrates an increase in potential energy is option (b) i.e. a person climbs a set of stairs. As he steps one stair, its position from ground increases. It means its potential energy increases.
Supposing velocity is speed and direction, and momentum is mass*velocity, if the velocity increases by a factor of 5, then so should the momentum regardless of the whole space thing.
