Bambi the young dear was distracted Buy butterfly and jumped into the road in front of the two vehicles as shown in the diagram

bagirrra123 [75]

Speed of car A is given as

$v_a = 70 mph$

now we need to convert it into SI units

1 miles = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

now we have

$v_a = 70 *\frac{1609}{3600} = 31.3 m/s$

now its distance from Bambi is given as

$d_a = 350 m$

time taken by it to hit the Bambi

$t = \frac{d}{v}$

$t = \frac{350}{31.3}$

$t = 11.2 s$

Now other car is moving at speed 50 mph

so its speed in SI unit will be

$v_b = 50* \frac{1609}{3600}$

$v_b = 22.35 m/s$

now its distance from Bambi is given as

$d_b = 590 feet$

as we know that 1 feet = 0.3048 m

$d_b = 590*0.3048 = 179.83 m$

now the time to hit the other car is

$t_2 = \frac{179.83}{22.35}$

$t_b = 8.05 s$

So Car B will hit the Bambi first

a 150 N force is used to pull a wooden box across a wooden surface at a constant velocity. what is the mass of the box?

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The mass of the box:

m = 60 kg

Explanation:

Given:

F = 150 N

g = 10 m/s²

_________

m - ?

Coefficient of friction wood on wood:

μ = 0.25

Friction force:

F₁ = μ*m*g

Newton's Third Law:

F = F₁

F = μ*m*g

The mass of the box:

m = F / ( μ*g) = 150 / (0.25*10) = 60 kg

A reconnaissance plane flies 605 km away from

kolezko [41]

Answer:

$v_{avg} =$ 355 m/s

Explanation:

Distance = 605 km

Initial speed = $v_{i}$ = 284 m/s

Final velocity = $v_{f}$ = 426 m/s

Average speed = ?

There is two method two find average speed. In first method, using 3rd equation of motion, we find acceleration.

$2as = v_{f}^{2}+v_{i}^{2}$

Then using first equation of motion, we find time

$v_{f} = v_{i}+at$

Then using the formula of average velocity, we find average velocity

$v_{avg}=\frac{total-distance}{total-time}$

Second method is very simple

$v_{avg}=\frac{v_{f}+v_{i} }{2}$

$v_{avg}=\frac{426+284}{2}$

$v_{avg} =$ 355 m/s

(a) An object that has a small mass and an object that has a large mass have the same momentum. Which object has the largest kin

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

A) The smaller object; B) The larger object

Explanation:

A) Lets say the small object is 2 kg and the large one is 6 kg. Lets say they also have 30 kg*m/s of momentum each. The small object would have 15 m/s velocity and the large would have 5 m/s.

Now for kinetic energy(.5*m*v²), the small object is .5*2*15², which is 225 J

The large object is .5*6*5², which is 75 J, so the smaller object has more Kinetic energy. Since velocity is squared, it is more important than how large mass is.

B) Same masses as part A. Lets say the kinetic energy is 45 J for both of them. For the small object, 45=.5*2*v²

.5*2 is 1, so 45/1 is 45. Take the square root and we get v= 6.71 m/s

For the large object, 45=.5*6*v²

.5*6 is 3, so 45/3 is 15. Take the square root and we get v=3.87 m/s

Now we plug the velocities into p=mv

For the small object, p=2*6.71, which gives us p=13.42 kg*m/s

For the large object, p=6*3.87, which gives us p=23.22 kg*m/s

The larger object has the larger momentum.

Hope this helps
