trasher [3.6K]

Answer: -3.49 m/s (to the south)

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle which establishes the initial momentum p_{i} must be equal to the final momentum p_{f}, and taking into account this is aninelastic collision:

Before the collision:

p_{i}=mV_{o}+MU_{o} (1)

After the collision:

p_{f}=(m+M)V_{f} (2)

Where:

m=1380 kg is the mass of the car

V_{o}=23 m/s is the velocity of the car, directed to the north

M=1625 kg is the mass of the truck

U_{o}=-26 m/s is the velocity of the truck, directed to the south

V_{f} is the final velocity of both the car and the truck

p_{i}=p_{f} (3)

mV_{o}+MU_{o}=(m+M)V_{f} (4)

Isolating V_{f}:

V_{f}=\frac{mV_{o}+MU_{o}}{m+M} (5)

V_{f}=\frac{(1380 kg)(23 m/s)+(1625 kg)(-26 m/s)}{1380 kg+1625 kg} (6)

Finally:

V_{f}=-3.49 m/s The negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity is to the south

How much heat is removed from 60 grams of steam at 100 °C to change it to 60 grams
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

45200J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Heat of vaporization of water  = 2260J/g

Mass of steam = 20g

Temperature = 100°C

Unknown:

Energy released during the condensation  = ?

Solution:

This change is a phase change and there is no change in temperature

To find the amount of heat released;

         H  = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of vaporization

Insert the parameters and solve;

         H  = 20g x 2260J/g

          H = 45200J

Two forces act on a moving object that has a mass of 27 kg. One has a magnitude of 12 N and points due south, while the other ha
levacccp [35]

0.77 m/s2 directed 35° south of west

net force = (-17,-12)

net force = mass * acceleration

(-17,-12) = 27 * (x-acceleration,y-acceleration)

(x-acceleration,y-acceleration) = (-17/27,-12/27) = (-0.629629629..., -0.444...)

angle of acceleration = tan^-1 (-0.444.../-0.629629...) = 35.21759 degrees below negative x-axis.

magnitude of acceleration = sqrt((-0.629629...)^2 + (-0.444...)^2) = 0.77069 (5dp)
