A 2000-kg car moving with a speed of 20 m/s collides with and sticks to a 1500-kg car at rest at a stop sign. Show that because

momentum is conserved in the rest frame, momentum is also conserved in a reference frame moving with a speed of 10 m/s in the direction of the moving car.

Answer:

13.33m/s

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 2000kg

u1= 20m/s

m2= 1500kg

u2= 0m/s

v1= 10m/s

Required

The speed of the sticks

We know that  from the expression for the conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2= m1v1+m2v2

2000*20+1500*0=2000*10+1500*v2

40000=20000+1500v2

collect like terms

40000-20000= 1500v2

20000= 1500v2

v2= 20000/1500

v2= 13.33 m/s

Hence the velocity of the sticks is 13.33m/s

What is the frequency of the most intense radiation emitted by your body? assume a skin temperature of 95 ∘f?
navik [9.2K]

Answer:    
Wien's law:    
λ_peak = b/T    
Wien's constant: b = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 m•K    
T = (5/9)[96 – 32) + 273 = 35.55 + 273 = 308.55 deg. K    
λ_peak = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 /308.55 = 9.39x10^-6 = 9.39 um
