Momentum P is given by:
P = mv

Given: m₁ = 62 kg, m₂ = 78.1 kg, v₁ = ?, v₂ = 0 m/s, v₁₊₂ = 1.29 m/s

before:
P = m_1 v_1 * m_2 v_2 = m_1 v_1

after:
P = (m_1 + m_2)v_{1+2}

Since momentum is conserved, the momentum before the collision must be equal to the momentum after the collision.

P = m_1 v_1 = (m_1 + m_2)v_{1+2} \\ v_1 =  \frac{(m_1 + m_2)v_{1+2}}{m_1}

Solve for v₁.

A delivery truck travels with a constant velocity up an 8 slope. A 60 kg box sits on the floor of the truck and, because of sta
Blababa [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

The slope of the ramp, \theta=8^{\circ}

Mass of the box, m = 60 kg

(a) Distance covered by the truck up the slope, d = 300 m

Initially the truck moves with a constant velocity. We know that the net work done on the box is equal to 0 as per work energy theorem as :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=0

u and v are the initial and the final velocity of the truck

(b) The work done on the box by the force of gravity is given by :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

Here, \theta=90+8=98^{\circ}

W=mgd\ cos\theta

W=60\times 9.8\times 300\ cos(98)

W = -24550.13 J

(c) What is the work done on the box by the normal force is equal to 0 as the angle between the force and the displacement is 90 degrees.

(d) The work done by friction is given by :

W_f=-W

W_f=24550.13\ J

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 11.3-kg object oscillates at the end of a vertical spring that has a spring constant of 2.20 ✕ 104 N/m. The effect of air resi
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) the frequency of the dampened oscillation is 7.02 Hz

(b) percentage decrease in amplitude of the oscillation in each cycle is 2%

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object = 11.3 kg

the spring constant = 2.2 X 10⁴ N/m.

damping coefficient b = 3.00 N · s/m

Part (a) the frequency of the dampened oscillation

The oscillation frequency is calculated as follows;

\omega _D = \sqrt{\omega_o^2 -(\frac{b}{2m})^2}\\\\\omega_o^2 = \frac{k}{m} =\frac{2.2X10^{4}}{11.3} = 1946.903rad/s\\\\thus, \omega _D = \sqrt{1946.903-(\frac{3}{2*11.3})^2} =44.12 rad/s

The damped frequency = \frac{\omega _D}{2\pi } =  \frac{44.12}{2\pi } = 7.02 Hz

Part (b)  percentage decrease in amplitude of the oscillation in each cycle

The amplitude of the oscillation depends on the damping coefficient (b) and period (T), and it is given as;

A(t) = e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(t)}

After one cycle, the amplitude changes from A(t) to A(t+T), where T is the period of the oscillation.

A(t +T) = e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(t+T)}

Percentage decrease in amplitude is gotten by dividing A(t) by A(t+T)

= \frac{e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(t)}}{e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(t+T)}} =e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(T)}

But T = 1/f

Substituting the values of the parameters in the above equation, we will have;

=e^{-\frac{b}{2m}(T)} = e^{-\frac{3}{2X11.3}(\frac{1}{7.02})} = 0.98

Percentage decrease = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02 = 2%

A train accelerates steadily from 4.m.s.-1 to 20.m.s.-1 in 100 seconds<br>​
kozerog [31]

Answering question assuming that we need to calculate how far it will travel in a given time.

A train accelerates steadily from  4 m/s to 20 m/s in 100 seconds then it will travel 1200 m in a given time.

Given:

Initial velocity u = 4m/s

Final velocity  v = 20m/s

Time t = 100s

We need to find out the distance covered in given time.

Distance =?

For finding distance, we need to find acceleration first.

Here we can apply kinematic equations as acceleration is steady as given in question.

So applying the first kinematic equation to find acceleration first.

a = v-u/t

a = 20-4/100

a = 16/100

a = 0.16m/s²

Now applying second kinematic equation

S=ut+ 1/2at²

s = 4 x 100+ 1/2 x 0.16 x 100 x 100

s = 400 +  800 = 1200 m

Thus a train accelerates steadily from  4 m/s to 20 m/s in 100 seconds then it will travel 1200 m in a given time.
