Soft target by impact and its contribution to indirect bone fractures.
A. To find work we need to know F and S; to find power we need to know F and V
The Kelvin scale has no negatives on it.
Zero Kelvin is 'Absolute Zero', and nothing can get colder than that.
Answer:
The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.
Explanation:
In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)
(1)
Where:
,
- Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.
,
- Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.
- Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.
If we know that
,
,
and
, then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:





The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.
