1 newton-meter is 1 Joule, the unit of work and energy.
The answer is True. The amount force exerted by any object is directly proportional to its mass. This means that our planet is exerting more gravitational force to Angelina, and Angelina is also exerting a gravitational force on our planet directly proportional to her mass. Angelina is actually falling towards the center of the earth,and also our planet is also moving towards Angelina, but it seems negligible with respect to Angelina.Our Sun is so massive that it held our planet in its orbit because of its gravitational force.
<span>force applied causes movement of an object in the same direction as the applied force.</span>
Answer: vl = 2.75 m/s vt = 1.5 m/s
Explanation:
If we assume that no external forces act during the collision, total momentum must be conserved.
If both cars are identical and also the drivers have the same mass, we can write the following:
m (vi1 + vi2) = m (vf1 + vf2) (1)
The sum of the initial speeds must be equal to the sum of the final ones.
If we are told that kinetic energy must be conserved also, simplifying, we can write:
vi1² + vi2² = vf1² + vf2² (2)
The only condition that satisfies (1) and (2) simultaneously is the one in which both masses exchange speeds, so we can write:
vf1 = vi2 and vf2 = vi1
If we call v1 to the speed of the leading car, and v2 to the trailing one, we can finally put the following:
vf1 = 2.75 m/s vf2 = 1.5 m/s
