Answer:

I got this question on Ap3x. The answer is Car C...I got it correct

Explanation:

This is because Car C is at the lowest point with the lowest amount of potential energy. Potential energy is stored at it's highest when it has the "potential" to fall, move, or etc. Car C seems to have gone farther down from the high point of the slope, meaning that most of the potential energy transformed into kinetic energy. All in all, Car C has the least potential energy. (Please give Brainliest, or not...your choice but this is the first question that I answered)

Two ice skaters, each with a mass of 72.0 kg, are skating at 5.45 m/s when they collide and stick together. If the angle between
Rudiy27

Answer:

The skater 1 and skater 2 have a final speed of 2.02m/s and 2.63m/s respectively.

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to go back to the theory of conservation of momentum, specifically in relation to the collision of bodies. In this case both have different addresses, consideration that will be understood later.

By definition it is known that the conservation of the moment is given by:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v_f

Our values are given by,

m_1=m_2=72Kg

As the skater 1 run in x direction, there is not component in Y direction. Then,

Skate 1:

v_{x1}=5.45m/s

v_{y1}=0

Skate 2:

v_{x2} = 5.45*cos105= -1.41m/s

v_{y2} = 5.45*sin105 = 5.26m/s

Then, if we applying the formula in X direction:

m_1v_{x1}+m_2v_{x2}=(m_1+m_2)v_{fx}

75*5.45-75*1.41=(75+75)v_{fx}

Re-arrange and solving for v_{fx}

v_{fx}=\frac{4.04}{2}

v_{fx}=2.02m/s

Now applying the formula in Y direction:

m_1v_{y1}+m_2v_{y2}=(m_1+m_2)v_{fy}

0+75*5.25=(75+75)v_{fy}

v_{fy}=\frac{5.25}{2}

v_{fy}=2.63m/s

Therefore the skater 1 and skater 2 have a final speed of 2.02m/s and 2.63m/s respectively.

Can someone help me? Idk why I can't understand this
olya-2409 [2.1K]
It's been a while since I've studied this, but my answers would be:

13. 5730 years. The half-life of a substance is the amount of time it takes for half of it to decay, and, according to the graph, half of the substance remained at 5730 years.

14. 10740 years. According to the graph, only 25% of the carbon remained after 10740 years.

15. 15 atoms. According to the graph, only 12.5% of the carbon remained after 16110 years. 12.5% of 120 atoms is 15 atoms.

16. 1600 atoms. According to the graph, if a sample of carbon is 10740 years old, only 25% of it remains. To find the original amount, multiply the current amount by (100% / 25%), which equals 4. So, 4. 400 atoms * 4 = 1600 atoms is the original amount.

A sample of chloroform is found to contain 12.0 g of carbon, 106.4 g of chlorine, and 1.01 g of hydrogen. If a second sample of
GREYUIT [131]

Given:

Sample 1:

Chloroform is CHCl_{3}

12 g Carbon

1.01 g Hydrogen

106.4 g Cl

Sample 2:

30.0 g of Carbon

Solution:

mass of chloroform from sample 1:

12 + 1.01 +106.4 =119.41 g

Now, for the total mass of chloroform in sample 2:

mass of chloroform \times\frac{given mass of carbon}{mass of carbon atom}

mass of chloroform = 119.41 \times\frac{30}{12} = 298.53 g

Where is the fulcrum of a broom?
algol [13]

It's one of your hands.  Which one it is depends on how you sweep.

-- If you hold the top of the stick motionless and wave your bottom hand
back and forth, then your top hand is the fulcrum, and you're using the
broom as a Class-3 lever.

-- If you hold your bottom hand motionless and wiggle the top end of the
broom back and forth with your top hand, then your lower hand is the fulcrum,
and you're using the broom as a Class-1 lever.
