Answer:
50 m/s opposite direction to the motion of the truck
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying the law of conservation of momentum
mu+m'u' = V(m+m')...….. Equation 1
Where m = mass of the truck, u = initial velocity of the truck, m' = mass of the car, u' = initial velocity of the car, V = Final velocity after collision
Given: m = 2500 kg, u = 20 m/s, m' = 1000 kg, V = 0 m/s (both car stop after collision)
Substitute these values into equation 1
2500(20)+1000(u') = 0(2500+1000)
2500(20)+1000(u') = 0
Solve for u'
u' = -[2500(20)]/1000
u' = -50 m/s
The negative sign shows that the car travels in opposite direction to the truck
Hence the car initial velocity before collision is 50 m/s in opposite direction to the motion of the truck
Use the law of conservation of momentum. Since the momentum is a linear measure, we can treat each of the dimension separately:
i-direction:
j-direction:
Answer: Final velocity is: (10i + 15j) m/s
Change in the kinetic energy:
Answer: The system lost 500J worth of kinetic energy in the collision
first you do your pyramid f is on top and ma is
on bottom were m=mass and a=acceleration
were in this case you do f÷m=force÷mass so again in this case 125÷0.65=192.3 to be more accurate 192.3076923077
You would gravitate towards Jupiter because if it’s large mass it has a stronger gravitational pull
