engineers are using computer models to study train collisions design safer train cars. They start by modeling an elastic collisi

on between two train cars traveling toward each other. Car one is traveling south at 18 M/S and has a full load, giving it a total mass of 14,650 kg. Kartoo is traveling north at 11 m/s and has a mass of 3825 kg. After the collision car one has a final velocity of 6 M/S south what is the final velocity of car 2?

Answer:

The final velocity of the second car is 57 m/s south.

Explanation:

This is an elastic collision between two train cars. In this case, the total kinetic energy between the two bodies will remain the same.

The formula to apply is :

m_1v_1i +m_2v_2i=m_1v_1f+m_2v_2f

where ;

m_1=mass of object 1\\v_1i=initial  velocity object1\\m_2=mass of object2\\v_2i=initial velocity object 2\\v_1f=final velocity object 1\\v_2f=final velocity object 2

Given in the question that;

m_1=14650kg\\v_1i=18m/s\\m_2=3825kg\\v_2i=11m/s\\v_1f=6m/s\\v_2f=?

Apply the formula as;

m_1v_1i +m_2v_2i=m_1v_1f+m_2v_2f

{14650*18}+{3825*11} = {14650 *6} + {3825 * v₂f}

263700+42075=87900 + 3825v₂f

305775 =87900 + 3825v₂f

305775-87900 = 3825v₂f

217875=3825v₂f

217875/3825 =v₂f

56.96 = v₂f

<u>57 m/s = v₂f { nearest whole number}</u>

The human nervous system can propagate nerve impulses at about 102 m&gt;s. Estimate the time it takes for a nerve impulse to tra
Olin [163]

Answer:

t = 0.196 s

Explanation:

The speed of a pulse is determined by the characteristics of the medium, its density and its resistance to stress, as long as these remain the speed will be constant for which we can use the kinetic expressions of the uniform movement

          v = x / t

          t = x / v

calculate

          t = 2/102

          t = 0.196 s

A 1000 kg car moving at 108 km/h jams on its brakes and comes to a stop. How much work was done by friction?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The work done by friction was -4.5\times10^{5}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of car = 1000 kg

Initial speed of car =108 km/h =30 m/s

When the car is stop by brakes.

Then, final speed of car will be zero.

We need to calculate the work done by friction

Using formula of work done

W=\Delta KE

W=K.E_{f}-K.E_{i}

W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2

Put the value of m and v

W=0-\dfrac{1}{2}\times1000\times(30)^2

W=-450000&#10;\ J

W=-4.5\times10^{5}\ J

Hence, The work done by friction was -4.5\times10^{5}\ J

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion.

Hence, the given information describes wind velocity.

Explain the universal law of gravity and it's calculate from as well as the value of g​
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

According to the Newton's law of gravitational every object in the universe attracts every other objects with a force which is called gravitational force.This gravitational force is (i) directly proportional to the product of their masses and (ii) inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centres.

Explanation:

Newton's law of gravitational is called the universal law because it is applicable to all the bodies either terrestrial or celestial having any shape,size,mass or at any distance apart with any medium between them,at any time(past,present or future).
