Answer:
4.123 * 10∧4 kg
Explanation:
mass of car M' = 3.34 * 10∧4 kg
energy loss E = 19/100 K
from law of conservation of momentum ,
M' V' = ( M' + M'' ) v
V = M' V' / ( M' + M'' )
Initial kinetic energy is K' = (M' V')² / 2
final kinetic energy K" = 81 K' /100
= (M' V')² 81 / (200) = ( M' + M'' ) v²/ 2
therefore , M' / ( M' + M" ) = 0.81
mass of caboose is , M" = 1.234 M' - M'
M" = .234 M'
= 0,234 ( 3.34 * 10∧4 kg)
= 4.123 * 10∧4 kg
Answer:
Speed, S = 0.5m/s
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 30 meters
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds
To find the speed;
Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.
Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

Substituting into the above formula;

Speed, S = 0.5m/s
