Answer:

24.8m/s

Explanation:

Given data

m1= 10kg

u1=25m/s

m2=17kg

u2=16m/s

v1=10m/s

v2=??

Applying the conservation of linear momentum

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

substitute

10*25+17*16=10*10+17*v2

250+272=100+17v2

522=100+17v2

522-100=17v2

422=17v2

Divide both sides by 17

v2= 422/17

v2= 24.8 m/s

Hence the velocity of the red cart is 24.8m/s in the opposite direction of the blue cart

A motorist enters a freeway at 45 km/h and accelerates uniformly to 99 km/h. From the odometer in the car, the motorist knows th
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

a)  19440 km/h²

b) 10 sec

Explanation:

v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 45 km/h

v = final velocity achieved by the car = 99 km/h

d = distance traveled by the car while accelerating = 0.2 km

a = acceleration of the car

Using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

99² = 45² + 2 a (0.2)

a = 19440 km/h²

b)

t = time required to reach the final velocity

Using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

99 = 45 + (19440) t

t = 0.00278 h

t = 0.00278 x 3600 sec

t = 10 sec

Celina has a water sample that’s contaminated with salt and microorganisms. Which method should she use to purify the water?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Celina should perform the following method to get pure water:

Boil the water in a pan, as the water boils it changes into gas (water vapours) these vapours should be cooled down through the process of condensation which changes gas into liquid form, Through this process germs would be killed due to high temperature and the salt will remain in the pan as salt has higher boiling point than water,

When θ= 0 ̊, the assembly is held at rest, and the torsional spring is untwisted. if the assembly is released and falls downward
Georgia [21]
Rod is 450mm and disk has a radius of 75mm So there is a pin holding the assembly upwards which is when Θ=0 and at the pin there is a torsional spring with constant of k=20N m/rad. One end of the rod is attached to the pin and the other is attached to the disk.

A patricle is accelerated uniformly from rest, so that after 10 seconds it has a speed of 15m/s find its acceleration and the di
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Its acceleration is 1.5 \frac{m}{s^{2} } and the distance it has covered is 150 m.

Explanation:

Acceleration is a quantity that indicates the variation in speed of a moving body as time passes. That is, acceleration relates changes in velocity with the time in which they occur.

The average acceleration is defined as the relationship between the variation or change in the speed of a mobile and the time used in said change:

acceleration=\frac{change in speed}{time}

In this case:

  • change in speed= final speed - initial speed= 15 m/s - 0 m/s= 15 m/s
  • time= 10 s

Replacing:

acceleration=\frac{15 \frac{m}{s} }{10 s}

and solving you get:

<u><em>acceleration= 1.5 </em></u>\frac{m}{s^{2} }<u><em></em></u>

Speed ​​is a quantity that expresses the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it. This is:

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

So the distance can be calculated as:

distance= speed* time

In this case:

  • speed= 15 m/s
  • time= 10 s

Replacing:

distance= 15 m/s* 10 s

and solving you get:

<u><em>distance= 150 m</em></u>

<u><em>Its acceleration is 1.5 </em></u>\frac{m}{s^{2} }<u><em> and the distance it has covered is 150 m.</em></u>

An object, accelerating from rest at a constant rate, travels over 28 m in 11 s. What is its final velocity?
Paul [167]

Answer:

answer is 3

Explanation:

by using s= [(v+ u)/2] x t

28= (v+ 0)/2 x 11

v= 5.09 ms^-1
