Answer with Explanation:

One hypothesis above would probably rely on the situation called <em>"inelastic collision." </em>The two carts are travelling towards each other at different speed. So, this means that once they collide, the kinetic energy will not be conserved but will be transferred as <em>sound energy, thermal energy or material deformation</em>. The impact will be great, thus a <u>greater fraction of kinetic energy will be lost from the system.</u>

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Part a)

h' = \frac{10}{14} h

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

h' = \frac{10}{14} h

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation the total energy at the bottom of the bowl is given as

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh

here we know that on the left side the ball is rolling due to which it is having rotational and transnational both kinetic energy

now on the right side of the bowl there is no friction

so its rotational kinetic energy will not change and remains the same

so it will have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh'

now we know that

I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2

\omega = \frac{v}{r}

so we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 = mgh

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh

\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgh

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{10}{14}mgh

so the height on the smooth side is given as

h' = \frac{10}{14} h

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

h' = \frac{10}{14} h

so on smooth it will go to lower height

A car of mass m push = 1200 kg is capable of a maximum acceleration of 6.00 m / s 2 . If this car is required to push a stalled
motikmotik

1)

first you find the maxium force that the car can produce.

f=ma

Fmax=(1100kg)(6m/s^2)

then use f = ma again to find the accel with the passengers

Fmax=(1100kg +1650kg)(a)

=> a = (1100kg)(6m/s^2)/( 1100kg +1650kg)

= 2.4 m/s^2
