Answer:
6200 J
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved.
m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂
The car is initially stationary. The truck and car stick together after the collision, so they have the same final velocity. Therefore:
m₁ u₁ = (m₁ + m₂) v
Solving for the truck's initial velocity:
(2700 kg) u = (2700 kg + 1000 kg) (3 m/s)
u = 4.11 m/s
The change in kinetic energy is therefore:
ΔKE = ½ (m₁ + m₂) v² − ½ m₁ u²
ΔKE = ½ (2700 kg + 1000 kg) (3 m/s)² − ½ (2700 kg) (4.11 m/s)²
ΔKE = -6200 J
6200 J of kinetic energy is "lost".
That's false.
The definition of momentum is (mass) x (speed), so they must be multiplied.
"20,000 kg-m/s" has the correct units resulting from multiplication, but the number could only be the result of division.
Answer:
Most of the EM waves from the sun that reach Earth are infrared waves, visible light, and UV radiation.

Answer:
I will explain the concept of magnetic field and how it can be calculated.
Explanation:
The formula for magnetic field at the center of a loop is given as
B = μ
I / 2R
where B is the magnetic field
R is the radius of the loop
I is the current
and μ
is the magnetic permeability of free space which is a constant 4π ×
newtons/ampere²
If the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 0, then μ
I = 0
I = 0 which means there will be no current flow in the loop.
