A block of mass m1 = 19.5 kg slides along a horizontal surface (with friction, μk = 0.35) a distance d = 2.6 m before striking a

second block of mass m2 = 8.25 kg. The first block has an initial velocity of v = 6.5 m/s.
(a) Assuming that block one stops after it collides with block two, what is block two's velocity after impact in m/s?
(b) How far does block two travel, d2 in meters, before coming to rest after the collision?

Answer:

19.5 m/s

87.8 m

Explanation:

The acceleration of block one is:

∑F = ma

-m₁gμ = m₁a

a = -gμ

a = -(9.8 m/s²) (0.22)

a = -2.16 m/s²

The velocity of block one just before the collision is:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (8.25 m/s)² + 2 (-2.16 m/s²) (2.3 m)

v = 7.63 m/s

Momentum is conserved, so the velocity of block two just after the collision is:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

m₁u₁ = m₂v₂

(18.5 kg) (7.63 m/s) = (7.25 kg) v

v = 19.5 m/s

The acceleration of block two is also -2.16 m/s², so the distance is:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (19.5 m/s)² + 2 (-2.16 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 87.8 m

Water supply, climate, shape of the land, vegetation, soils and availability of natural resources.

Explanation:

Abiotic means non living so the sun is non living. The sun gives us warmth and the ability to survive

Biotic means alive or living- plants are living and give off oxygen and take in carbon to help us live  umm ok

scientific endeavor should only be pursued after known tradeoffs associated with the research have been considered. True or Fals
AfilCa [17]
This is false. There were many times in history when people discovered something that they didn't even know was possible or didn't even plan to discover it. Knowing tradeoffs doesn't mean that something won't surprise you or that all will go according to plan.

a dump truck travels 70mph for 3 hours, then for 20mph for another 2 hours in the same direction. what is the average speed the
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 70 mph

time of motion, t₁ = 3 hours

final speed, v = 20 mph

time of motion, t₂ = 2 hours

The average speed of the car is calculated as;

v' = \frac{70(3) - 20(2)}{3-2} \\\\v' = 170 \ mph

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 170 mph.
