If you drop a gum rapper on the floor is that pollution

Not exactly, it is littering. littering makes the place look unpleasing and unclean, but it wont necessarily kill us. now if a factory is dumping their sewage and whatnot in the water, that is considered as industrial pollution because it is killing almost all the wildlife that live in the water, and it can contaminate the water so if you take a swim in it and accidentally swallow some of the water, it can make you sick and can possibly kill you.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

v = 11.0 m/s at 198.6° (18.6° south of west)

ΔKE = -145 kJ

Explanation:

I assume you want to find the final velocity and the change in kinetic energy.

Take east to be +x and north to be +y.

Momentum is conserved in the x direction:

(1050 kg) (0 m/s) + (750 kg) (-25.0 m/s) = (1050 kg + 750 kg) vₓ

vₓ = -10.4 m/s

Momentum is conserved in the y direction:

(1050 kg) (-6.00 m/s) + (750 kg) (0 m/s) = (1050 kg + 750 kg) vᵧ

vᵧ = -3.50 m/s

The magnitude of the final velocity is:

v² = (-10.4 m/s)² + (-3.50 m/s)²

v = 11.0 m/s

The direction of the final velocity is:

θ = atan(-3.50 m/s / -10.4 m/s)

θ = 198.6°

The initial kinetic energy is:

KE₀ = ½ (1050 kg) (6.00 m/s)² + ½ (750 kg) (25.0 m/s)²

KE₀ = 253,275 J

The final kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ (1800 kg) (11.0 m/s)²

KE = 108,682 J

The change in kinetic energy is:

ΔKE = 108,682 J − 253,275 J

ΔKE ≈ -145,000 J

two equal and unlike parallel forces of magnitude 34N act on a rigid body,such that the moment of couple is 8.50 Nm. calculate t
goldfiish [28.3K]

The moment of a couple is Force × perpendicular distance from the arm of the line of action

so the arm of the couple= moment of couple/force=8.5/34=0.25m

the arm is 0.25m

A car (m = 1302 kg) traveling along a road begins accelerating with a constant acceleration of 1.50 m/s2 in the direction of mot
antiseptic1488 [7]

First we will use the concepts of motion kinetics for which the final speed is defined as shown below,

v_f^2=v_i^2+2as

Here,

v_f= Final velocity

v_i= Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

s = Distance

Replacing,

(35)^2 = v_i^2+2(1.5)(392)

v_i = 7m/s

Using the conservation of energy for kinetic energy we have,

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}(1302)(7)^2

KE = 31900J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the car is 31900J
