<span>The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg.
The key here is the conservation of momentum.
For the first truck, the momentum is
0(5100 + 4300)
The second truck has a starting momentum of
60(5100 + x)
And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other.
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x)
And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms
0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Getting rid of the zero term
60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x)
Distribute the 60 and the 42.
60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x
306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x
Subtract 42x from both sides
306000 + 18x = 609000
Subtract 306000 from both sides
18x = 303000
And divide both sides by 18
x = 16833.33
So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums.
60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000
42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000
They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.</span>
Answer:
The spring constant = 104.82 N/m
The angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s
Explanation:
From the diagram attached below; we use the conservation of energy to determine the spring constant by using to formula:


Also;

Thus;

where;
= deflection in the spring
k = spring constant
b = remaining length in the rod
m = mass of the slender bar
g = acceleration due to gravity


Thus; the spring constant = 104.82 N/m
b
The angular velocity can be calculated by also using the conservation of energy;






Thus, the angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s
Answer:
a) v = 6.43 m/s
b) v = 15.8 m/s
Explanation:
Speed of car = 56 km/h
56 km/h = 14.4 m/s
Angle rain makes on the glass to the vertical = 66°
Thus knowing that the opposite side of the angle is the distance moved by the car, and the adjacent side is the distance traveled by the rain in the same time
both of which are directly proportional to their velocities
Then
tan(66°) = 14.44m/s ÷ x
or x = 14.44/tan(66°)
Which is the vertical raindrop velocity of the relative to earth
v = 6.43 m/s vertically towards earth
For v relative to the car is we have vector sum of both velocities
v = √(14.44^2 + 6.43^2) = 15.8 m/s which is the velocity relative to car
= 15.8 m/s
Answer:
4.08 s
Explanation:
Let the passenger took "t" time to catch the train
so in this case the total distance moved by the train + 5 m = total distance moved by the passenger
so we will have
distance moved by train is given as

also the distance moved by passenger

so we will have



t = 4.08 s
The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and
is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
