is their final velocity
Physics

Andrews [41]2 years ago

Answer:

  v=9.6 km/s

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the car =  m

The mass of the truck = 4 m

The velocity of the truck ,u= 12 km/s

The final velocity when they stick = v

If there is no any external force on the system  then the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m x 0 + 4 m x 12 = (m + 4 m) x v

0 + 48 m = 5 m v

5  v  = 48

v=\dfrac{48}{5}\ km/s

v=9.6 km/s

Therefore the final velocity will be 9.6 km/s.

Imagine that there is a small rocky body caught by Earth’s gravity. Draw a comic-strip cartoon
vladimir1956 [14]

To create this comic strip you can use a narration describing each step and illustrate each one with one image or drawing.

Creating a comic strip involves using images and short texts to explain a specific idea or phenomenon. In the case of the process for a meteor to enter Earth you can use the following ideas.

  • A meteoroid approaches the Earth at high speed and draw a meteor traveling near to different planets and approaching Earth.
  • What is that? and draw the Earth wondering who or what is approaching.
  • The meteoroid enters the atmosphere of the Earth and becomes a meteor and draw the rocky body burning
  • The rocky body crashes with the surface becoming a meteorite and draw the zone where the meteorite crashed.

Tires of a Bigfoot truck has a diameter of 2.2 m. If it rotates 60 revolutions find distance travel on the road.
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

s = 414.7 m\\

Explanation:

The relationship between the linear distance covered by an object and its angular displacement is given by the following formula:

s = rθ

where,

s = distance traveled on road = ?

r  radius of tires = diameter/2 = 2.2 m/2 = 1.1 m

θ = angular displacement = (60 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 377 rad

Therefore,

s = (1.1 m)(377 rad)\\s = 414.7 m

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica
grin007 [14]

Answer:

f_e = 1.51 cm

Explanation:

given.

magnification(m) = 400 x

focal length (f_0)= 0.6 cm

distance between eyepiece and lens (L)= 16 cm

Near point (N) = 25 cm

focal length of the eyepiece (f_e)= ?

using equation

m = -\dfrac{L-f_e}{f_o}.\dfrac{N}{f_e}

400 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{0.6}.\dfrac{25}{f_e}

9.6 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{f_e}

9.6f_e = 16-f_e

10.6 f_e = 16

f_e = 1.51 cm
