Answer:
0.41
Explanation:
given,
mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg
initial speed = 10.5 m/s
mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg
distance moved = 2.80 m
coefficient of friction = ?
conservation of energy
m u = (M + m) V
2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V
V = 4.74 m/s
using equation of motion
v² = u² + 2 a s
4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8
a = 4.02 m/s²
now using equation
a = μ g
4.02 = μ x 9.8
μ = 0.41
Answer: 750Kg
Explanation:
Recall that force is the product of the mass M, of an object moving at a uniform acceleration.
i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration
In this case, Mass = ?
Force = 3.00 x 10^3 N = (3.00 x 1000N)
= 3000N
Uniform acceleration = 4.00m/s^2
Force = Mass x Acceleration
3000N = Mass x 4.00m/s^2
Mass = (3000N/4.00m/s^2)
Mass = 750Kg (The SI unit of mass is kilograms)
Thus, the mass of the car is 750Kg
