A car of mass 1800 kg collides with a truck of mass 5200 kg, and just after the collision the car and truck slide along, stuck t

ogether, with no rotation. The car's velocity just before the collision was < 44, 0, 0 > m/s, and the truck's velocity just before the collision was < -21, 0, 20 > m/s. Use the concept of the center-of-momentum reference frame.

Explanation:

Elastic collision is said to occur if the total kinetic energy is not conserved and if there is a rebound after collision

Step one

Analysis of the problem

Immediately after impact the car's velocity was zero making it a perfect elastic collision

Step two

Given

Mass of car M1=1800kg

Mass of truck M2=5200kg

Initial velocity of Car U1=44m/s

Initial velocity of truck U2=21m/s

Final velocity of car V1= 0m/s

Final velocity of truck V2=20m/s

Step three

According to the principle of conservation of momentum

Total momentum before collision

=M1U1+M2U2

Total momentum after impact

=M1V1+M2V2

M1U1+M2U2 =M1V1+M2V2

Substituting our data into the expression we have 1500*44+5800*21=1500*0+5800*20

=66000+1218000=11600

1284000=11600

From the solution the momentum before impact is 1284000Ns

Momentum after impact is 11600Ns

This is indicating that after impact there was loss in momentum as a result of the car having a velocity of zero

In the equation for the gravitational force between two objects, which quantity must be squared?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The distance between the two objects must be squared.

Explanation:

Gravitational force always act between two objects that have mass. The gravitational force is a weak force and attractive in nature.

The force of pull depends on the masses of the two objects and the distance between them.

The formula to calculate gravitational force between two objects having masses 'm' and 'M' and separated by a distance 'd' is given as:

F_g=\frac{GmM}{d^2}

Where, 'G' is called the universal gravitational constant and its value is equal to 6.674\times10^{-11}\ m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}.

Now, from the above formula, it is clear that, the force of gravitation is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Thus, the quantity that must be squared in the equation of gravitational force between two objects is the distance 'd'.

To practice problem-solving strategy 26.1 resistors in series and parallel. two bulbs are connected in parallel across a source
hichkok12 [17]
Emf e = 11
r 1 = 3.0
r 2 = 3.0
r 3 = ?

The two in parallel are equivalent to 3 • 3/6 = 1.5 Ω 
To have 2.4 volts across them, the current is I = 2.4/1.5 = 1.6 amps. and the unknown R = (11–2.4) / 1.6 = 5.375 Ω or 5.4 Ω

If f(x)=4/x+2 and g is the inverse of f,then g'(10)=​
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

g'(10) = \frac{-1}{16}

Explanation:

Since g is the inverse of f ,

We can write

g(f(x)) = x    <em> </em><em>(Identity)</em>

Differentiating both sides of the equation we get,

g'(f(x)).f'(x) = 1

g'(10) = \frac{1}{f'(x)}    --equation[1]    Where f(x) = 10

Now, we have to find x when f(x) = 10

Thus 10 = \frac{4}{x} + 2

\frac{4}{x} = 8

x = \frac{1}{2}

Since f(x) = \frac{4}{x} + 2

f'(x) = -\frac{4}{x^{2} }

f'(\frac{1}{2})  =  -4 × 4 = -16            

Putting it in equation 1, we get:

We get g'(10) = -\frac{1}{16}
